Chloe Bailey divided her fans when she took to press earlier this week to announce her new song, ‘How Does It Feel,’ will come as a duet with Chris Brown that arrives February 24.

While some rejoiced at the news of the high-profile features, others expressed disappointment of Bailey’s decision to collaborate with the R&B bad boy given his reported history with women.
