Chlöe Bailey, one half of the R&B duo Chloe x Halle, released her highly anticipated debut album, "In Pieces," to the world. While the album featured collaborations with popular artists like Chris Brown, Future, and Missy Elliot, it debuted at No. 119 on the Billboard 200 and only sold 10,000 copies during its first week.

Critics are now discussing the potential reasons for the album's lackluster performance, including speculation about Chlöe's mentor, Beyoncé, and her involvement in the project. Both Chlöe and her sister, Halle, are signed to Beyoncé's label and management company, Parkwood, leading many to wonder if the lack of support from the label and its owner played a role in the album's poor sales.

A user expressed their confusion by saying, "Not to be funny, but I really wanna know what was the point of Beyoncé signing Chloe? Like was it for a look? So that someone can be under her? I don’t get it, cause how do you let your artist drop an album & you don’t support it not once & now she sold 10k."


Another user chimed in, "Nah Beyonce could’ve at least posted Chloe Bailey album on her story I mean ain’t that your artist?????"

Despite the criticism, Chlöe remains unfazed and focused on her music. While the album's reception may not have met the expectations of some, it is still an impressive feat for any artist to release a debut album.


It's important to remember that success in the music industry can be unpredictable, and there are many factors at play beyond an artist's talent and hard work. While it's understandable for fans to feel disappointed when their favorite artist doesn't perform as well as they hoped, it's also important to support and uplift them regardless of their chart positions.

Chlöe's debut album is a milestone in her career, and it's a testament to her dedication to her craft. As she continues to grow as an artist, we can look forward to seeing what she will accomplish in the future.
