Chlöe teased her debut solo project for years, but our patience paid off in a major way. After successful years singing as half of the duo Chloe x Halle, Chlöe showcased her individuality with the release of "In Pieces," on March 31.
"It's definitely Make 'Em Sweat-level spicy!" she told POPSUGAR of "In Pieces" in June 2022, referencing a hot sauce she released with DoorDash. She added the album is "wayyy too hot to handle."
Since the start of her solo music career, Chlöe has released a series of singles that have left us wanting more, including "Treat Me," "Surprise," and "For the Night," which features Latto.
In an interview with Complex, Chlöe teased that her debut solo release would feature several exciting collaborations. "Every single song on that project stems from my own experiences," she said. "'Have Mercy' stemmed from my being sad. I was responding to haters. That is where that song came from. The single 'Treat Me' came from reminding myself that if there is something I want out of a man, I have to give it to myself first."
Chlöe announced the "In Pieces" release date with a social media post featuring footage of herself in a red latex dress and red braids. She holds a metal heart in one hand while balancing a metal sphere in the other, a possible nod to the image of Lady Justice. The full album includes songs "Told Ya" feat. Missy Elliott, "Cheatback" feat. Future, and "Someone's Calling (Chlöe)."
Chlöe was also the guest of honor at POPSUGAR Play/Ground in June, where she performed two songs and answered a series of insightful questions.
