The UK’s hottest and fastest rising girl group, FLO, wants their music to touch all corners of the globe. This winter the trio (comprised of Jorja Douglas, Stella Quaresma, and Renée Downer) will accomplish just that when their debut studio album, Access All Areas, hit streaming services.
For now, the harmonious ladies are treating supporters to another silky smooth single slated to appear on Access All Areas. “Bending My Rules,” produced by Darhyl ‘DJ’ Camper Jr. is yet another example of why the group has taken off in the ways that they have. Between Jorja, Stella, and Renée’s flawless three part vocal blends and the penetrative lyrics co-authored by DIXON, “Bending My Rules” is the purest essence of R&B. Contrary to the song’s title, FLO hasn’t deviated from or cut any corner when it comes to rounding out this infectious record.
As the group sings, “But I’m nervous / I don’t do this / With just anyone, but you’re bendin’ my rules / Cause I’m nervous, I’m so nеrvous / I don’t want nobody, nobody like I want you,” you can’t help but take on their raw sensibilities.
Listen to FLO’s new single “Bending My Rules” off their upcoming album, Access All Areas, above.
Access All Areas is out 11/15 via Island Records. Find more information here.
Last summer, FLO caught up with Uproxx and hinted at their collective mindset around their forthcoming debut full-length album.
“You never know what people are gonna latch on to, so you want to make sure that everything you’re doing is something that you’re like 100% proud of,” Jorja Douglas said, adding, “We’re not in full bloom yet. We really want people to just stick around and watch us develop and turn into the incredible artists that we know we are deep down inside.”
On Thursday, August 22, FLO confirmed they’re ready to bloom by announcing Access All Areas, their debut LP due out on November 15. The British trio also consisting of Renée Downer and Stella Quaresma have released “Walk Like This,” “Caught Up,” and “Check” as singles this year.
“We were just 3 girls from the UK who loved to sing, we’ll never forget how [‘Cardboard Box’] introduced u to us and us to this crazy new life, our label didn’t even want us to drop that song first,” FLO wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
“We know we’ve taken our time with putting out an album… but one thing about us is that we are perfectionistssss! All areas of our craft have to be ready and that took time.
We’re not fully grown, but we’re no longer teens. It’s a strange but exciting time, we’re growing into this new era in front of all of you…the work is non stop and we’re away from home every 2 mins but we have the most loyal supporters who make our dream our reality.
We’re excitednervousgassedproudscreamingcrying to have finally gotten to the finish line. we’re ready for the soundtrack of our lives to be YOURS.”

Burgeoning London R&B trio, FLO, are making waves by reviving the late 90s and 2000s eras of the genre. While it may come across as lazy to some, we can see and hear that they have more to offer than just hitting us in the nostalgia bone. They have a dynamic no-nonsense attitude about them and that is especially true on their newest single “Caught Up.” Partially produced by MNEK of Zara Larsson’s “Never Forget You” fame, these ladies are making it clear that they are not going to fight for a man that really does not want them back.
In a chat with THE LINE of BEST FIT, FLO explained these thoughts very clearly. “It’s very simple, we are not going to lose ourselves going crazy over a guy, if you get caught up it’s a simple bye bye. We know our worth and ‘Caught Up’ is a friendly reminder that we are not to be played with.” On this effort, we can hear a bit of Destiny’s Child coming through, especially in the instrumental and harmonizing vocal bits.
However, FLO and the song’s other producers (Jay Versace and Pop Wansel) do help bring a modern feel, especially with the punchy drums. For the talented trifecta, this follows up their most popular song to date, “Walk Like This.” In just the two months that it has been out, it has accumulated over nine million streams. Their catalog is small, but it is filled with consistency, as well as a co-sign from Missy Elliott on “Fly Girl.” Project wise, they only have two EPs to their name, 3 of Us and The Lead. But hopefully, these 2024 releases will lead to an official debut album.
What are your thoughts on “Caught Up” by FLO? Is this one of their better tracks as of late, why or why not? What is your favorite aspect of it? Do you think they are gearing up for a new project soon? Do you hear any inspiration from Destiny’s Child? would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding FLO. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.
Quotable Lyrics:
No, I’m not the type to keep you locked up inside (No) And I won’t start a fight to keep you with me tonight (No) ‘Cause I can spot the truth when I look in your face And I can smell a lie before you walk in my place Yeah, you know my reputation, so don’t push me (Yeah) I’ll get my revenge if I lock away this— (Oh, woah)
FLO is kicking off the new year with some new music to get fans excited. The first release since their 2023 EP 3 Of Us, “Walk Like This” is a confident anthem that brilliantly opens with the sound of their heeled boots.
Lyrically, it also gets a little bit spicy, as they declare “There’s a reason I walk like this (I walk!) / Side to side with a sway in my hip.” The band co-wrote and produced it alongside MNEK.
“We made ‘Walk Like This’ with our frequent and loved collaborators MNEK, Ashton Sellars, Kabba, Relyt, and Talay Riley,” the band shared in a statement. “It was the end of 2023 and we wanted to create something sexy, still fun and upbeat, and for the certified lover girl in us all.”
“The song is about that energy you have when you embrace your sensuality and womanhood,” FLO added. “It’s okay to admit a man’s doing well from time to time! We hope it makes you feel confident, a bit naughty, and adds that extra sway to your walk.”
As for what to expect from FLO throughout the rest of 2024, the London-based girl group will be performing at Coachella and NYC’s Governors Ball in just a few months.
Flo Milli has announced her second studio album, Fine Ho, Stay, which is set to be released via RCA Records later this summer. To kick off the album’s anticipation, she has shared its first single and music video, titled “Fruit Loop,” produced by YoungFyre. The track embodies Flo Milli’s trademark confidence and premiered on Apple’s Daily New Music feature.
Fine Ho, Stay follows the success of Milli’s debut mixtape, Ho, why is you here? (2020), and her critically acclaimed debut album, You Still Here, Ho? (2022). The upcoming album stays true to her style, showcasing her mainstream stardom potential.
Earlier this year, Flo Milli made her impressive Coachella debut, dazzling the audience with a high-energy performance, and even collaborated with Monaleo for their hit single “We Not Humping.” The track has garnered over 50 million streams and views worldwide. With her new album on the horizon, it’s clear that Flo Milli is here to stay and make her mark in the music industry.
For the past year and some change, FLO – the British girl group comprised of singers Stella Quaresma, Jorja Douglas, and Renée Downer – have captured the hearts, attention, and most importantly, the support of people all over the world. One of the most impressive aspects of FLO is that they check off the boxes of music lovers with different tastes from different generations.
Their music sounds like it was made from the 1990s-2000s era of shimmering and theatrical R&B production, enough so that millennials will smile and maybe gain a bit of hope for the kids of today. Their soaring vocals and pristine harmonies will make the R&B traditionalists send a hallelujah or two into the sky in relief that their beloved vocals are still important in the genre. Gen-Z can beam in delight at the sight of girls from their generation who shares similar qualities: the resistance to tradition, being fearlessly outspoken, and having confidence in all the best ways.
FLO has it all, and with that, there’s no denying that they’re ready to take over the world.
The girls’ recent steps have come through the releases of “Fly Girl” with Missy Elliott and “Losing You,” records that both fit the mold of FLO’s DNA despite being polar opposites sonically. “I think they’re quite contrasting and I think that’s kind of what we’re about,” Stella says about these songs over a Zoom call with Uproxx. “We’re very multifaceted.” Similar to their The Lead cut “Another Guy,” “Losing You” leans into the characteristics of an R&B ballad to bid a final goodbye to a past lover who mistreated them in more ways than one and share the relief that came with their exit.
On the other hand, “Fly Girl,” similar to “Summertime,” is steered by the feisty fun that lives in the heart of a lively part. FLO is fierce, confident, and dismissive to anyone and anything that falls short of their reasonably high expectations because, I mean, c’mon, it’s FLO we’re talking about! “I think that they were good contrasting songs to put out one after the other,” Stella says. “That’s also what our album gonna be about, just us and our journey and being honest about everything.”
FLO’s journey began with the release of their debut EP The Lead in the summer of 2022. A viral clip of one of their music videos on Twitter help make them the beloved darlings to fans that they are now, but the music on that project sufficed as the most ideal launching pad toward their current success. “It was quite a journey getting to that list of songs,” Stella says. “We’re proud of it [The Lead] and proud of the songs and proud of the list. We worked really hard to get everything on there to be how we wanted it.”
That work paid off thanks to excellent entries to The Lead like “Not My Job” and “Immature” which once again find insufficient men as the subject their heavenly harmonies dive into. These songs, as well as others like “Cardboard Box,” stand out as the most quality entries, or “bops” as the girls call them, in their discography. Think they can’t top these? FLO has something to tell you about that. “We like the kind of pressure that, [because] we keep putting out bops, we need to top them because we want to grow as artists,” Jorja says. “We just want to keep pushing ourselves because we want to release the best music possible. We don’t feel pressure from anyone else, we just feel a healthy pressure [from ourselves].”
As the saying goes: pressure creates diamonds. Though the girls still have plenty to achieve in their careers, they have successfully created a career that their younger selves would be proud to see. “It’s really important to us that we stay true and honest to ourselves and each other and to the people that we’re working with who have the power over our music,” Jorja says. “The way we carry ourselves through and navigate these situations is something that our younger selves would be really proud of.”
These situations include their first US tour which came to an end at the end of April with a closing show at Los Angeles’ Fonda Theater. Over the course of two weeks, FLO made stops in major cities like Atlanta, New York City, and Chicago to not establish an audience across the pond, but meet and connect with fans who’d been supporting them for months at a minimum.
“I don’t even think that we’ve had time to process how people are receiving like our shows because it’s [been] so fast-paced,” Jorja admits. “As much as we love meeting people, we kind of hate meeting people in that rushed setting where it’s like, this is this person, ‘hi!,’ next person, next person. I don’t feel like we’re actually like connecting with this person and like getting to know them and actually processing the things that they’re saying.”
Despite that, the girls are still taking in and appreciating these moments as best as they can for the circumstance at hand. “We’re very happy that like overall everyone is really enjoying the show,” Jorja added. “We can’t wait for it to be over so we can actually process how amazing the experience has been.”
Now that tour is over, FLO will get back to work on their upcoming debut album. Though details on it are slim, the project is undoubtedly a highly-anticipated follow-up to The Lead and FLO’s ambitions for the alum are just as high as the excitement from fans for it. “I think definitely around the album, a personal goal is for us to create a video that, through and through, we’re really proud of and there’s no doubt about it that this is just the best video that we’ve created,” Jorja says.
Stella’s response was a bit different saying, “It would be really cool to get some cool features on the album with people we’re inspired by” while Reneé notes, “I’m most excited about having a final piece and being able to reflect on the process of getting there. That’s gonna feel really special and be a very key point in our careers and I want to make sure that we’re able to feel the most amazing feelings about it, even though it’s a crazy process and things might go wrong, the outcome, I want us to feel really proud of it.”
FLO has plenty to be proud of and it’s evident with their upcoming album which is one of the more anticipated debuts in recent time. Through this process, the girls have learned lessons and received advice that will be extremely handy in their expansive toolkit. One of them is simple but equally important to their growth: always do your best. “You never know what people are gonna latch on to,” Jorja says. “So you want to make sure that everything you’re doing is something that you’re like 100% proud of.”
Another example comes with the reminder that this is just the beginning of a career that FLO hopes will turn them into household names like Beyoncé and Whitney Houston. “We’re not in full bloom yet,” Jorja says. “We really want people to just stick around and watch us develop and turn into the incredible artists that we know we are deep down inside.” Taking over the world is in FLO’s destiny, and with the cards they have in their deck, Stella, Jorja, and Renée have just what they need to make that a reality.
Flo, a rising girl group, enlisted none other than Missy Elliott for their latest single, “Fly Girl.” It also samples Elliott’s classic 2002 song, “Work It,” over a fun beat produced by MNEK.
“’Fly Girl’ is all about confidence, good vibes, and feeling your best. It’s a lively, feel-good song that still incorporates clever lyrics and fire vocals, if we do say so ourselves,” the band said, per NME.
They also expressed their gratitude for working with the superstar.
“It’s quite literally a perfect fusion of old school meets modern day R&B, with a nod to and feature from the original fly girl Missy Elliott herself. We love it and are so happy to be putting out a song that can hopefully make whoever plays it feel confident and most importantly, fly.”
“Working with FLO has been nothing less than amazing,” Elliott added. “I remember a few of their fans sent me clips of their performances, and I immediately felt the authentic ’90s vibe. I loved the fact they all sang lead so well – great vocal control – so when I was asked to be a part of the ‘Fly Girl’ record, it was a no-brainer. They used the inspiration from my song ‘Work It’, and I felt they did it justice. I enjoyed it and I believe they have a long, great career ahead of them.”

Missy Elliott is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.
