Initially entering the industry in the 2010s as the older half of the R&B sister duo Chloe x Halle, singer, songwriter, producer and actress Chlöe took no time to carve out her own identity at the start of the 2020s. Through experimental production and lyrics ranging from confident to vulnerable, she captivates her solo fanbase while continuing to make TV and movie appearances.

Born Chloe Elizabeth Bailey in Atlanta, Georgia on July 1, 1998, her early years were spent in Mableton, Georgia, where she first got involved with acting. She made her debut as the younger version of Beyoncé’s character in 2003’s The Fighting Temptations, with her other early roles being in Last Holiday (2006), Meet The Browns (2008), and Gospel Hill (2008). Her father taught her how to write songs when she was 10, and after her family moved to Los Angeles in 2012, her talents as a performer really began to take off.

As a solo artist, Chlöe emerged in 2021 with a rendition of Nina Simone’s “Feeling Good” for the Juneteenth compilation Liberated / Music For the Movement Vol. 3. Her official debut single “Have Mercy” was released three months later on September 10th, with more singles and features on songs by other artists coming afterwards. Her debut album, the highly-anticipated In Pieces, was released on March 31, 2023, supported by the singles “Pray It Away,” “How Does It Feel,” “Body Do,” the title track and “Cheatback.”

Following her guest appearances on songs by Offset, BJ the Chicago Kid and Libianca for the latter half of 2023 and two weekend performances at Coachella in the spring of 2024, Chlöe released her second album Trouble In Paradise on August 9, 2024. Inspired by her time in the Caribbean country of Saint Lucia, which influenced the tropical elements throughout, it contained the singles “FYS” and “Boy Bye.” In 2026, she joined forces with producer Timbaland to release the collaborative mixtape Resurrection.
