Shot Koller

posted in: Artist Features • Music News • Urban

If you’ve never heard the name Yuri Koller, you better ask somebody. Like, maybe Saigon, Drake, or Diddy’s Day26 band, all of whom have crossed paths with the artist and his music. Koller, who used to go by the stage name Lokz, is a Toronto R&B singer and megawatt star in the making. No, seriously. Listen to Throw It Away and tell us it isn’t one of the best R&B/pop jams you’ve heard since Justin Timberlake’s What Goes Around Comes Around. Over shuddering synths and a thumping beat Koller introduces us to his formidable talent. His voice sails dreamily on the chorus of the jazzy Without You, and goes rapid fire on the stylized and dynamic R&B banger 24 Hours To Love You. Like the heir apparent to Usher, Koller brings incredible vocals, killer production, and lots of sex appeal to the game. He won’t be a free agent for long.
