Since debuting in 2022, UK girl group FLO has shaken up the R&B scene and received co-signs from Kehlani, Victoria Monét, Kelly Rowland and SZA. Following an onslaught of singles this year – “Walk Like This,” “Caught Up,” “Check” and “Bending My Rules” – their long-awaited debut album Access All Areas will be released on Friday, November 15th. The trio drops the fifth single from the project, the title cut “AAA,” which sets the tone for this new era for Stella Quaresma, Jorja Douglas and Renee Downer.
“Access All Areas is a labor of love. To us, it represents our growth and dedication to making girl group history, to making a project we are truly proud to call our debut album,” FLO said about the upcoming set in a press release.
“AAA,” which is shorthand for Access All Areas, is a sensual, 2000s R&B-reminiscent song produced by “Pop” Wansel, Rogét Chahayed and MNEK, who’s the mastermind behind FLO and the album’s executive producer. The track also includes a sample from Teena Marie’s classic “Portuguese Love,” giving it an even more nostalgic feel.
Jorja, Renee and Stella sing to their lovers to let them know they’re wide open. The ladies are ready, willing, able and eager to take things to the next level with their infectious riffs and runs and flirty ad-libs.
Stella sets the sexy mood from the first verse. “What’s done in the dark / Got me catching feelings / This ain’t about my heart / It’s about the feeling,” she begins. All three join in on the hook, harmonizing, “So let’s explore / Come take a tour / Access all areas / Tonight it’s yours.”
The playful lyrics continue throughout the song as the girls give their love interests the green light. “You hear my body calling / I hope you don’t let it ring / Don’t let it ring,” Renee sings seductively in the second verse.
Jorja comes through on the bridge to reassure her lover that this is an exclusive experience, as she sings, “Putting on a private show, get excited / This is just for you, ain’t nobody else invited.”
The vocals, production and lyrics on “AAA” blend perfectly to give listeners a bold new feel from FLO. With this and their previous singles, it’s clear that these ladies are coming in hot and establishing themselves as a force in R&B.
