Late Nite VIP

Late Nite VIP is the debut studio album by Billboard Top 20 charting[1] American recording artist, DJ and producer Keo Nozari.

Years of live performances in the early 2000s — including solo shows in New York City at former CBGBs and the Virgin Megastore[1] — culminated in Nozari releasing his debut album Late Nite VIP on October 18, 2005.

Billboard Magazine (in a review for the December 10, 2005 issue, pages 49–50) compared Nozari's singing style to "a young George Michael",[3] and cited Late Nite VIP’s “electro-funk-fueled pop sound” as being on par with the work of writer-producer Stuart Price (Madonna’s Confessions on a Dancefloor) and Janet Jackson’s longtime collaborators, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis[3] from his hometown of Minneapolis.

[3] Keo co-produced the album with Ellis Miah, whose production credits include Miley Cyrus[4] with some of the original tracks mixed by Jody den Broeder.

[5] Second single "Question of Monogamy" featured a racy video—which included the openly gay[6] Nozari in a steamy shower with two other men—causing a controversy at MTV's LOGO channel.
