One of Dallas, Texas’s brightest rising stars in soul music Latoya Cooper, debuted her brand new single “Love Affair” with ESSENCE.com January 23. The new single follows the release of Latoya’s triumphant Hear Me Roar EP in the third quarter of 2017.
“I wrote ‘Love Affair’ on my birthday, after sitting down and having a humble reflecting of my life. Music is a spiritual experience for me and over time, I learned it is the same for many others… it ‘s about tapping into a place of gratitude and thankfulness from God.” – Latoya Cooper
