Sex Playlist is the fourth studio album by American singer Omarion. The album was released on December 2, 2014 under Maybach Music Group and Atlantic Records. The album serves as the follow-up to his third album Ollusion (2010).
In November 2014, Omarion released the track listing and release date for the album. This album is his first full-length release from Maybach Music Group. He later released the album cover artwork which features Apryl Jones, Omarion's girlfriend, straddling him.
Omarion described the album as more mature and concept driven then his previous releases. He said, "It's not about just having a sex playlist, it's about having the right sex playlist, because you can't have sex without love… It's not just about the lustful idea of sex. It's a playlist for the lovers."
The album's lead single, titled "You Like It", was released on February 14, 2014.
The album's second single "Post to Be" featuring Chris Brown and Jhené Aiko, was released on November 11, 2014. The song was a big success, reaching number 13 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and has since been certified tripple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
Sex Playlist received positive reviews by music critics. Andy Kellman of AllMusic said "After some snags, Omarion finally released his first Maybach Music Group album, Sex Playlist, in late 2014. While it was issued only as a digital download, it deserved a full promotional push and physical release from Maybach parent label Atlantic, as it was one of the year's best sets of contemporary R&B. True to its title, Sex Playlist is more slow jam-oriented than any of Omarion's Epic and EMI albums." Curt Williams of SooDetroit said, "With so many delays and push backs of Sex Playlist, the general assumption was that Omarion was going to drop a lackluster project. Fret not! Omarion manages to deliver one of the year’s best R&B albums, and definitely the best of his discography since his debut." Justin Charity from Complex called the album "one of the most mature, refined, restrained male R&B projects from a major artist" from 2014. He went on to say that Omarion sounded more evolved and the album was more sincere and coherent.
