(New York, NY): Today, alt R&B duo Lo Boii, comprised of producer/writer Aalias and writer/ vocalist Corey Latif, released their debut project, ‘Sex Doesn’t Sell... Anymore,’via AWAL.
With surprising chorus drops from Aalias —co-producer of the Grammy-winning Eminem and Rihanna single "The Monster" —and shining falsetto runs from Corey Latif —a two-time Grammy-nominated songwriter who’s written for Usher (“Crash”), Snakehips, Chris Brown, and more—’Sex Doesn’t Sell… Anymore,’ is a project bound to catch ears from an array of modern circles.

Lo Boii’s debut features previously released singles “Floor Seats” and “Sweeter,” which blend faithful nods to the pair's influences with a distinct, surprising new flavor. Tracks like “Chakra” shine a light on the pair’s blend of old-school funk licks and soulful vocal runs with a wholly original take on modern electronica. Layered sheets of sound combine with an underlying steadiness to form a masterfully crafted mosaic, and gems like their electrofunk cover of “She Drives Me Crazy” by Fine Young Cannibals put Latif’s falsetto chops on full display.
