"'Sexbox'" is a single by American singer La Toya Jackson. It is taken from her 1991 album 'No Relations'. The single was released on 7", 12" and CD singles in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the Netherlands.[http://www.discogs.com/La-Toya-Jackson-Sexbox/master/245224 Discogs]
The single was released on Pump Records (a division of Dino Records) and a huge promotion campaign boosted the single in the Netherlands and Germany. The single charted at #23 on Dutch charts, and became Jackson's second biggest Dutch hit of her career.
Jackson performed the song on several German and Dutch TV shows accompanied by a group of Dutch dancers, including 'Gottschalk', 'NDR Talk-Show' and 'Up'n Swutch'. In Spain, Jackson performed the single on Jess Hermida's television program along with her song "Playboy". At the same time she promoted the release of her autobiography 'La Toya: Growing up in the Jackson Family' and her second appearance in 'Playboy' in November 1991.
The track samples James Brown's "Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine." It also references Madonna's "Like a Virgin".
