Flo: Access to all areas [Republic]
After years of honing their R&B and all-girl charisma, Flo released their debut album, Access to all areas. The three singers belt out songs (“AAA”) and radio hits (“Walk Like This”) as a way to showcase their self-described “growth and dedication to making girl group history.” The album, which follows last year's 3 of us The EP delves into the rich harmonies, pop-tinged production and soulful vocals that have helped Flo earn praise from genre stalwarts like Kelly Rowland and Ariana Grande.
