Pitchfork: Chlöe - "In Pieces" Album Review


Featured Posts

Her debut solo album In Pieces is a compilation of soulless singles curated to produce kiss-off captions. It spends so much time defining what Chlöe isn’t—Halle, a Bible-thumping prude, a moral absolutist—that by the end, we have no clue who the mononymous singer actually is. [...]
 
Beyoncé, Chlöe’s mentor, set her star project into motion when she stepped onstage at the 2003 BET Awards to perform “Crazy in Love.” Chlöe’s solo debut single, “Have Mercy,” aspired to a similar “debuting on top of a neon sign of her name” moment, but landed like a song from the Empire soundtrack—“body language like speaking Spanglish” is something Lucious Lyon would come up with. [...]
 
Chlöe pulls some high-profile features, but they’re all clinical. “Told Ya” wastes a Missy Elliott collab on vocal warm-up exercises. [...]

Now that Halle is a Disney princess, Chlöe cosplays as a dominatrix. In Pieces meets a fate worse than controversy: banality.

This is definitely a rage click article bc they really don’t even get into the actual musicality of the album. Sad excuse for a review.

A shame the album didn't add up to the amazing singles that came out, particularly BODY DO, one of the best of this year

I personally only like Body Do on the album. And the rest sounds nothing like it, so I don't understand why it's there, much less the second single. Also don't understand why Have Mercy isn't on it.

I dl the album from a certain site :glamourpuss: titled the Expanded Version and it has Have Mercy on Track 2, and it also included Surprise, For The Night,  and Treat Me :tony:

I really liked Have Mercy and thought she would do really well with that kind of sound but yeah her latest songs just haven't hit for me at all, which is a shame cos her voice is incredible

This review is a bit harsh, however after Treat Me and Have Mercy being amazing leads, this whole thing is boring and most songs are identical to each other.
