A debut studio album is up next for Chlöe Bailey. Previously, Chlöe x Halle dropped the critically-acclaimed projects The Kids Are Alright in 2018 and Ungodly Hour in 2020. Both LPs were released via Columbia Records and Beyoncé Knowles-Carter’s Parkwood Entertainment.

“I started working on this album in 2019, a month or two before the pandemic hit. I put a pause on it so my sister and I could promote Ungodly Hour, but in between, I was in my bedroom creating at night. I’d be making my own beats and working on songs and ideas for this project that I knew would come, I just didn’t know when,” said Chlöe Bailey.
