CHLOE X HALLE: INDIVIDUALLY

The Bailey sisters, Chlöe and Halle, have been working together professionally since they were young children. The girls had impressive depth and range at that time and have since grown (Chlöe is now twenty-five; Halle is twenty-three) into even more considerable talents. After taking a hiatus, with each pursuing solo endeavors over the last few years, there has been some chatter that this duo are coming back together to create new music. However, each sister has recently just released their own new song.

Chlöe first premiered "FYS". an alt-r&b song co-written by the singer with producer, BongoByTheWay. The title stands for "Fuck Your Status" which she explains means the trappings of wealth and success shouldn't matter with the only thing that is important in a relationship is love.



Meanwhile, Halle just delivered "In Your Hands", the second track from her still, on-the-way debut solo album. This lovely ballad expresses the deep love that she feels for her partner, fellow musician, DDG and their new born son, Halo.

HOT AND FRESH OUT THE KITCHEN

Fresh off her dazzling performance in the Disney live-action musical, "The Little Mermaid", Halle Bailey is here to remind us she has not abandoned her music career. After spending much of her professional life with her sister, Chlöe (who had released her debut studio album, "In Pieces" in March), the twenty-three-year-old singer has released a single, "Angel" which is the first song off her own upcoming solo album. This uplifting ballad (written by Bailey, Sebastian Kole, and the song's producer, Ron "Neff-U" Feemster) explores her experiences of growing up as a Black woman in this world. And Bailey will be back on the big screen soon as she will make an appearance in the musical adaptation of "The Color Purple" due in theaters on Christmas Day.





"Freak Me Now", the latest single from Jessie Ware's euphoric, disco-inspired, "That! Feels Good!", is a now remixed and features fellow Brit dance floor veteran, Róisín Murphy. This pairing does not disappoint, with these fierce vocalists tearing up on this retro track and team up together in a fun, campy music video.

And the latest song from Doja Cat's upcoming fourth studio album has dropped. Coasting along on a sample of the Dionne Warwick's classic, "Walk On By", "Paint The Town Red" is about the singer not caring what her haters think, ignoring them all and enjoying her life. The accompanying music video certainly give you the impression that Doja Cat is "the Lady Gaga of Hip-hop" with the clip featuring outrageous imagery that includes scenes of her dancing intimately with "Death", throwing bloody chunks of meat and riding on a giant dragon through the sky. And there is still no release date or title of Doja's next album.
