    The convo on willow was spot on. Blk people have been honestly bullying willow for being herself but will be the ones to say blackness isn’t a monolith. That is one of the issues with how we continue to put black femmes and women in a cage to not explore new sounds in images that they want to create and invest in. We don’t have blk women creators Periodt to explore themselves creatively bc we hold this rusty rubric against them but then want to complain that all blk female singers / rappers/ creators all look the same . No, some of you are walking around with blinders on , so strong that you don’t even know that there are pop blk girls, Elmo blk girls , indie blk girls , edm blk girls, metal blk girls that exist in this present moment.

    The crazy thing is, Chloe's "theatrics" are not surprising at all to those of us who knew her back in her and Halle's UA-cam "Best Thing I Never Had" days. Chloe is intense with her delivery, facial expressions, body movements... she always has been! Even Bey evolved over time. She "oversang" her runs a lot back in her early Destiny's Child days but learned restraint and polished her performances over the years. I'd rather someone have uber talent, be able to do it all and learn to practice restraint in the right moments than not be able to give ANYTHING. I think she has a bright future. I agree with Zach wholeheartedly.

      Yes Beyoncé used to oversing, like Chloe does sometimes, I think it’s because they get excited and so into it, which really isn’t a bad thing when you think about it. I rather a performer give more, than less

      Reinventing is very different. The different eras of an artist should still be true to the brand and identity of an artist. Just like fashion, yes? Designers come out with new collections every season. Fall/Winter 2021 will look different from F/W 2020. The fashion will evolve but there should be commonalities across collections because it follows the brand identity. What Chloe lacks is authenticity.

    hot take: i think the girls actually had a pretty great childhood and didn’t have to go through the hyper sexualisation that many young black girls go through. these girls come on the pop/rap scene, oozing sex appeal, and i find it refreshing that she’s a little… awkward in her approach and “doing too much.” we ALL have gone through that phase when finding ourselves, some are just later to it than others. we really should just let breathe, she’ll get there.

    Making this a black women thing is kinda weird, there are enough Black women in music who are sexual/sexy.
    I think the main problem with Chloe is that its just not natural, so it comes off very cringey.
    She just needs time to master the art of being sexy without trying. Like Rihanna is SUPER sexual but it does not come off cringey or too much because her energy matches it and she does it so effortlessly.

    The only time she was “doing too much” was when she posted that lollipop video, which she immediately deleted right after. Other than that, I think the girl is SOLID! Chloe is gorgeous and talented. The whole “she’s doing too much” narrative is getting old. It’s starting to feel like a lot of people, mainly women, are imposing their own insecurities on to Chloe. She’s doing too much in your eyes cuz you feel as tho you can’t do what she’s doing and to be quite Frank that’s a personal problem. Chloe is not here to make US feel comfortable. She’s following her dreams and doing what SHE feel is right for her. On top of that she’s still coming into her own. We all have been there so let’s not act Holier than thou. We do not have the right to dictate what she wears, how she sings, how she performs, and what she decides to post on social media. Now can we give our opinion and constructive criticism? Of course, but that’s it. It’s her choice to accept it or say “fuck y’all imma do whatever I want!” If you’re not feeling what she does, just simply say she’s not your cup of tea and keep it pushing. Going as far as coming for her character and picking her apart ain’t it. A lot of people just have too much time on their hands nowadays. I miss the days where these celebrities weren’t so accessible to us and we had no choice but to focus on the music instead of their personal lives 🙄

    Maybe part of the frustration is that just about every female artist has to have “sexiness” as part of her growth spurt in the industry. I know personally, I’m tired of that narrative. Why does entertainment value HAVE to be about sex and skin and reveals? The over-the-top sexiness distracts me from her talent. It feels forced and inauthentic. And Zach does make a good point about extending some grace here and letting her grow. I want Chloe to win. But when her single dropped and I saw the video, I was disappointed. Yeah, the song slaps. But the hyper sexual message is played out. It’s fitting a tired mold. I would love to see a female artist grow in her talents and evolve her image if she genuinely wants to (aka, not as a result of insecurity and industry pressure) but without having the titties popping every which way and the cooter sliding out of the leotard. Just dance and sing without every body part hanging out for the sake of shock value. Sexuality should not be a requirement to be sickening.

      I watched that program in its entirety. I watched different variety of performances from Kacey Musgraves, Olivia Rodrigo, Camila Cabello... And then there was Normani's and Chloe's performances... 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
      I know there are folks that love bringing up Janet and Beyonce. But they fail to acknowlege the fact that both artists didn't jump out the gate showcasing that brand of sexuality. For Janet, it was her 1993 self-titled album, which was her 5th studio album and 11 years into her music career. Then there's Beyonce. It was really her self-titled album from 2013, which happened 15 years after her debut, that she became more blunt with her sexual and sensual showcases.
      For me, I am just tired of this being the ONLY prototype for female, black entertainers to follow, in order to obtain mainstream success.

      Agreed on all counts for the comments above. As a white woman, I know I have limited capacity to understand the nuances of being black in America. My boyfriend and I talk about this topic a lot (he is Haitian). It’s definitely sad to see how much the industry is churning out young black women as objects of sexuality and they don’t allow them to show their depth beyond that. The control that the music industry has over an artist’s image (not to mention income/percentage per stream, etc) is astounding.
      “Read the room” is right! Chloe is seducing people through the camera and when I watch her videos I’m like…I didn’t ask for this come on 😂 buy me dinner first. I do feel for her, though. I just wish she would stop acting like this is her authentic desire when the change into some kind of forced vixen has been abrupt and uncomfortable to watch.

Not just because we share a name (my middle name is Chloe), and we’re both Cancers lol, but growing up as a dancer my own dance teacher told me that I dance too big. And I was 1 out of three black girls in my dance troop. And outside of that, I’ve been told not to do too much with what wear. I was a shy kid with low self esteem who found herself, after college. And I embrace all that I am, whether I naturally give off being sexy or flirty (which I’ve been told before but didn’t see it) when I’m just being myself, or whether I still do too much when I dance. I no longer care. And neither should she. We are who we are and if you can’t handle it you can leave.

    Before I even finish the video, I’m so glad you brought up Willow! I have her on repeat and she brings me that 2000’s pop/punk nostalgia that I’ve been craving. I think you hit the nail on the head when you said that Willow was criticized at first for the genre of music she was “messing around with”, but she didn’t want to be an R&B singer and that’s ok. Rico Nasty is another great artist with different music and aesthetic that people tend to sleep on because they want to put her in a box. I really loved the iPhone video (it scratches a part of my brain I didn’t know needed scratching 😭). But I agree with you wholeheartedly that Chloe is setting the bar for these other girls because she IS talented, she IS that girl. We just have to give her time to pave her own lane because people love to compare her to Beyoncé (which makes sense, she is her mentor) but Chloe is her own person, a separate artist. Love the video, as always! 💕🌸

    Zach.. I have to disagree with you here. I think the “doing too much” is what triggered you. I think people are seeing Chloe‘s over-sexualization as inauthentic and calling it “doing too much”. I’m here for finding oneself, organically. But it doesn’t seem genuine with Chloe. Ex the lollipop video. It was quite unnecessary to say the least.. Now with that being said I don’t think she should get “bullied” but I see this more as feedback. Perhaps it’s the wording “doing too much” that’s the problem. Because I don’t want her to dim her light, but rather shine in authenticity ✨

    I just can't agree with this perspective. I had to stop mid-way to reply. The spotlight and platforms of this magnitude are not for anyone to start "discovering themselves." Fame is not for the insecure or unassured. Branding is so, so important as an artist and no one wants to invest their time or money in someone who doesn't know what or how to deliver. People see through BS and facades and Chloe is just not comfortable, much less natural at being sexy. Not in this way at least. She (and/or her team) so desperately wants to be a vixen and a sex symbol but what she does is making her audience uncomfortable. There are so many varieties of sexy personalities but she/they are fixated on the vixen/bombshell/unattainable hot girl and we don't see it. She needs to come to terms with the energy/persona she naturally has and magnify it. Christina Milian is bubbly, cutesy, innocent girl next door but still alluring. Megan Fox is very dark, somewhat masculine, cerebral, mean/b!tchy... You feel like she's going to eff you up but you'd love every second of it. Megan Good is a slightly different type of seductive, but there's some overlap in my mind. Mariah is very elegant and understated but youthful and girly. Chloe, if anything, is more like Christina Milian.
    Maybe we need to survey the ages of those who don't like what Chloe's giving because I'm 29 and I can tell you I definitely don't feel this way because of who's popular in the industry today. Chloe doesn't have IT and won't convince me until she brands herself better.

      @lolitafalana 2 роки тому +19

      Also, I want to add that we're in an era where media, especially video is consumed very, very quickly and in small amounts. Artists and the industry at large are focused on creating moments for reshare on social media. Chloe writhing on the floor, licking lollipops and microphones, bending over in front of the camera and whatever else isn't because she was just feeling sexy. That's to keep people talking and sharing. It's too obviously calculated, too unnatural and I'm uncomfortable lol. You can go far doing less. We don't have to think in extremes. Less doesn't mean nothing. Just. Less. Be naked if you want to, but make it make sense. Provocative for one doesn't have to compete with or look the same as what's provocative for someone else.

      @Lakacia Lloyd I 100% agree she may have it, just not in the way she's packaged it and maybe not in all the ways she wants to be. She can have IT in terms of vocals (I'm kind of indifferent there), but she does not have IT in terms of performance and dance, and that's where I believe most people have a problem. That's not her strong suit and to be honest, I think she's trying to establish herself in too many ways too soon (acting, singing, dancing, producing...). I think her look and voice are marketable but the performances and social media antics detract.

Be open to opposition.
      Getting stage time at award shows is earned. All you fighting to let Chloe "find" and "discover herself" on a big platform baffles me because THAT is the definition of accepting mediocrity. If someone told you to grow with your significant other as opposed to finding someone established would you have the same argument? Chloe needs to find herself on a mall stage and at small club venues, not on national and global platforms. That mindset will take any performer or industry to the gutter.

    I've always found Chloe to be a bit cringy and not super "natural" but it just came off to me as a young woman who is trying to find herself and trying to find what her true expression is, so I completely agree with you on that. I also think that the vitriol she is receiving is extremely vicious and not proportionate to the issue AT ALL. Beyoncé was also said to do too much when she first started and she got a ton of hate too, but then eventually she grew into the image she has today. The same will happen with Chloe. She's going to find her place eventually and I agree just let her grow.
    But let me also say this. A lot of people feel like Chloe is cringe and it is frustrating when we get told that we are SUPPOSED to stan her just because she is talented. And listen, a lot of people online need to be told to calm down on the hate because it's insane. But for others, they're going to have a different opinion and that's ok. For example, I stopped following her on social media awhile ago because I don't particularly care of her social media presence but I love her music, I love her voice! I think she is super talented, and that's ok! I don't particularly care of her live performances right now but that's ok too! What's wrong is when we go out of our way to hate on her. But I don't think it's wrong for people to think she is cringe if that's how they definitely feel. We don't all have to like the same artists or the same things. It's what we do with it that's the issue.

I’m so used to both Chloe and Halle being more focused on the music rather than trying to be the girls who are all about being sexual. I don’t see a problem in her exploring who she is, but I do see a problem in being overly sexual. I just don’t want her music to be overshadowed by some of the things she’s doing. She has so much to say, and I don’t want her to fall into the same category as a lot of women right now who are only sex based.

    The problem Chloe's audience is having with her is about her coming off inauthentic. Yes she can sing and she's a pretty woman however she is literally blending in the background with all of the other females artists who are "expressing their sexuality". Chloe's sexual "expression" comes off like a gimmick and she posts these things out of her own free will so she needd to accept that most people aren't here for it. Why does it have to be people hating because they are being honest about what they're looking at?? Why does it have to be about being black?? Why can't she just give us the album that we want and sell the music sell her talent and stop giving us Instagram thrist trap clips. Everything in life is about balance and Chloe is putting more energy into "being sexy" than putting out some quality music. I am grown and this I what I have observed from what she has put out there. Until then hopefully she puts giving us a number one album as a priority. People want to see what she is made of musically as a solo artist not just doing corny "sexy" covers licking lollipops.

I could tell when they were going to separate before it happened because she was expressing herself differently than he sister. I don't personally think it is a gimmick, I think she is trying to find herself and it is coming off really strong.
      I agree that people have their opinions but we are in a time where people are pushing their opinions hard because of the internet and have others join them and it does turn into a bully mentality. People don't just say " hey you did this a bit too strong" they are much more rude about it and I think that is what he was trying to say. And as for being black, it is a stereotype of black women who perform, and many people are coming for her for it...which is also what he means.
      I agree with you, I feel she could sell her music without as much sexuality. Kind of like India Arie...but I feel who am I to dictate how she wants to sell her music and self.

She’s always been “extra” though in terms of performing. In my opinion there’s nothing wrong with that. I love to see her hunger and drive. However I am a little worried that she will become a mediocre artist and write a bunch of songs about her body.

      American parents are fine with it.
      Unfortunately, in the black music industry in America, there aren't groups that are aimed towards teens and preteens at the moment. The meager ones that were there (for instance, the O.M.G. Girls, 3rd Storee,) aren't functioning right now.

    I really hate when people say she does too much, specifically the black community, because it's like when the other girls do it then it's fine. But when Chloe does it, oh she's doing too much or she's cringy or she's attention seeking. It's either they're not used to it, they're used to seeing her as the "Disney" girl or the "good girl", or the black community has this definition or standard of what is "sexy" or what artists need to do to fit in and when she doesn't fit or conform to THEIR standards, then they tear her down. And I hate that. Especially when you brought up Willow. Because when she was this 10 year old with half of her hair shaved and singing about whipping her hair, everybody thought she was weird. But now that she's found this rock/alternative pocket to be in, oh she's cool and iconic and that girl. I just had the hypocrisy of it all especially from the black community because it's #weneedmoreblackartists but when we have artists outside of rap, hip-hop, r&b, and even pop, suddenly they're "trying to be white" or "doing too much" or " being weird". It's so irritating and I'm glad you actually took the time to talk about it because it's a major conversation that needs to be had within the black community especially.
    (so sorry for the long rant but as someone who go ridiculed and talked about and labeled as "weird" because I did things that wasn't normal to everyone else, it's such an infuriating topic tbh)

    It's ok to not "stan" her. To not care for her voice, music, image etc. I never got into her and her sister. The Have Mercy song is a cute bop. That's it! 🤷 It's NOT ok to attack her though. Let her live! If you don't like someone or something, unless it's causing you harm, just keep it moving. I do it all the time.
    **side note** some people, especially parents, have an issue with her, what they consider an overly sexualized image. That's a tale as old as time, and one that won't be going away, probably ever. Can't tell people how to feel, but we can politely suggest they express their feelings in non hateful and hurtful ways.

She is a real person who sees everything ya'll post online. How many times do ya'll have to tell her she makes you uncomfortable? Let's try to be more positive and when we are being critical do it in a constructive way. I don't always agree with the things many artists do, but you will NEVER find me leaving a negative comment about them online because I always think what if they see it. Especially if you are one of many people repeating the same negative thing. We need to be kinder to people on the internet.

      @@sola2351 This is an issue that is particularly bad for artists, which is the consumer/supplier relationship.
      With most other areas they are selling A product but with artists, they themselves are THE product and therefore, the subject of reviews, good or bad.
      The internet is the consumer's voice amplified and unfortunately, it can be overwhelmingly negative. Not only because of people's predilections to tear each other down, but because it also gathers likeminded individuals that wouldn't otherwise find a way to converge.
      That to say, it's the court of public opinion and since the beginning of time, it's always been brutal. Back then, physically brutal even. That's essentially what "cancel culture" is.

    All of it is cringey to me. There are enough girls selling sex just for the hell of it and she is above that. Her gift is above that. If she chooses to be sexual that's fine. She's grown. But the vibe of what she's done in the past is "I'm doing this because I feel like I have to in order to get the attention these others get, not because I'm actually expressing my sensual side for myself as a part of my art." And I don't like that. She is so gifted and talented. I don't want her jumping on the raunchy, weird, "sex sells" bs just to get people talking. She has shown in her performances that she's got what it takes to put on a show and I do appreciate and admire her drive. She'll figure the rest out as she grows.

    honest opinion on chloe: she definitely does too much (sometimes). it clearly bothers her when ppl say she has forced sex appeal which is probably why she’s trying SO hard to prove everyone otherwise. it’s forced and awkward and the reason i feel like it’s not authentic is bc it seems like she seeks assurance from her fans when ppl start criticising her ie. crying on live/sharing zachs video on her story. the more we coddle our favs, the less they grow as artist. perfect example of that is normani and doja cat.

    She is sooo talented!!! I am all for expressing yourself, being a creative myself. I just hope that she is not being required to “stripperize” her performance by the powers that be. Being an older woman, I feel like there is this thing where young women have been led to believe that there is only this way to be sexy...sooo everybody dresses like and dances like they all took classes at the player’s club. I think the disconnect comes from her and her sister were girls when they came out literally..so people have a hard time seeing her as a sexual grownass woman. I totally agree with your commentary on that aspect. Another thing is Chloe has this regal aura about her so people probably are thinking she’s better than that..but there is a place and time for everything under the sun..Honestly what it boils down to is... if what she is doing is not your cup of tea then turn the channel. But how dare people tell this woman how to express herself.. It’s the audacity and unmitigated gall for me..Somebody mention a burlesque vibe to her performance ..I’m here for it!!

    Have to disagree overall. Chloe and Halle have gotten an extreme amount of support. HELLA opportunities without the sales or demand to match thanks to Queen Bey. People root for them blindly. So if something is off, that needs to be addressed and it’s okay to. I’ve been following them since their UA-cam cover days. Chloe has been hitting the cringe button with no stop. C’mon Zach, that lollipop video was just, whyyy lol. Talent and “it factor” are two different things, and as an Artist yourself you know this Zach. Some people got “it” and some don’t. If talent should equate to appeal, every talented person would make it. Doing too much simply means you look forced, unnatural, unrelaxed..etc allat. Humans are creatures that “feel” before we can understand what we’re feeling. I believe people are feeling somethings just not sitting right and that’s okay. We do not have to blindly Stan Chloe.
