FLO have shared their first single of 2023, ‘Fly Girl’ featuring Missy Elliot.
Speaking about the track, the group explain: “Our ‘Fly Girl’ is the embodiment of strength, empowerment, attitude, and community. She/he/they/them/ are not shaped by what society deems beautiful or acceptable, but a member of an inclusive environment that accepts and embraces femininity in all its glory. We are hardworking independent fly girls who get the job done, and have fun while doing it.”
‘Fly Girl’ features an original rap from Missy Elliot – fitting as the track samples ‘Work It’, finding inspiration in her lyrics, “If you’re a fly gal, get your nails done, get a pedicure, get your hair did”.
2023 is shaping up to be a massive year for FLO. They started off by being crowned winners of BBC Sound of 2023. They’re due to perform at London’s Here At The Outernet and Manchester’s New Century Hall in the coming weeks, both selling out in minutes. They are also set to play Glastonbury, Wireless, Longitude, TRNSMT, Sol Blume, Pharell’s Something In The Water and Summersonic this summer.
