The duo known as Lo Boii share their exceptional cover of Fine Young Cannibals' hit "She Drives Me Crazy". The genres between the groups are vastly different but the duo masterfully crafts a remix that works. Sonically, Aalias paints a whole new canvass in the future-soul region that slightly pays homage to the original with its gripping layered instrumentation, while Latif re-imagines the song in his own unique manner and delivers a stunning rendition.
Comprised of producer/writer Aalias and writer/vocalist Corey Latif, the duo reimagine the original version's upbeat energy and display a more sultry and mellow vibe with stretched melodies and layered harmonies that touch the soul. I could have never dreamt of hearing a neo-soul infused version of this song that almost drove me crazy as a kid so nothing but thanks to Lo Boii.
For those that don't know, the original is from Fine Young Cannibals' 1989 album, The Raw & the Cooked, and was a Billboard Hot 100 number one hit.
"She Drives Me Crazy" is taken from Lo Boii's debut album 'Sex Doesn't Sell Anymore'. Get it on Get it on Spotify
