Coming off the heels of singles like âWalk Like Thisâ and âCheck,â 2024 has been an incredible year for FLO, who released their debut studio album, Access All Areas, on Friday (Nov. 15). In celebration of its success, they updated the LP with an Unlocked version on Monday (Nov. 18).
Introducing five reimagined songs to the setlist, FLO tapped Chlöe and Halle Bailey for âSoft (Unlocked),â Kehlani for âIWH2BMX (Unlocked),â Bree Runway for âNocturnal (Unlocked)â and DIXSON for âBending My Rules (Unlocked).â The last-mentioned record also got a live version, courtesy of Vevo.
âWe really admire these artists and couldnât be happier to have them feature on our new music. From the lyricism to the harmonies to the sweet melodies and flows they all delivered,â FLO shared in a press statement.
âSoft (Unlocked)â notably marked the second time Chlöe and Halle reunited musically since embarking on their solo careers, with the first being âWant Meâ from Augustâs Trouble in Paradise.
On the other hand, FLO served as an opening act for the North American leg of Kehlaniâs âCRASH WORLD TOUR,â which swept across major cities like Toronto, Boston, Brooklyn, Atlanta and Charlotte. The trio also made their way to While We Wait 2 for â8 (Remix).â
Access All Areas initially arrived with 16 songs, including a standout feature from GloRilla on âIn My Bag.â Cynthia Erivo voiced the intro, while other fan favorites included âAAA,â âIâm Just A Girlâ and âHow Does It Feel?â
Regarding the album itself, the girl group shared, âWeâve poured our hearts into this album and are immensely proud of the quality, sound, lyricism and storytelling weâve created. Weâre so grateful to all of the collaborators on the album and know the heights itâs going to take us to! We hope everyone loves it as much as we do!â
