Black Squirrel Radio
2018 - The best thing about the album is that, this is Chloe x Halle’s album. From the lyrics down to the production, Chloe Bailey and Halle Bailey are credited, something many are not used to seeing when it comes to new artists. Something about this makes the album seem, organic, fresh and innovative.
