Chloe Bailey has been blazing a trail and all, it appears, is leading up to the release of her debut solo album.

Having risen to prominence as part of a duo with her sister Halle, the 23-year-old has spent much of the last year showcasing her own musical gravitas.

The first taste of Bailey’s solo flavor was Billboard hit ‘Have Mercy’ and now she’s gearing up for follow-up ‘Treat Me’ – as well as her launch LP.

That Grape Juice was on-hand at the premiere of ‘Atlanta’ season 3 in Los Angeles this week and caught up with the star on the blue carpet.

In a brief but telling moment with TGJ’s Shar Jossell, Bailey made clear what her project will be serving up. Check out the interview above and be sure to let us know…

Ed Sheeran continues to share new music.

This time around, the British hitmaker has teamed up with Latin music superstar J Balvin for two new songs: ‘Sigue’ and ‘Forever My Love.’ Both of which got the music video treatment.

Sheeran and J Balvin spoke with New Music Daily on Apple Music 1 about the decision to team for the two new songs. Sheeran explained:

“They were made in a very, very, very natural way.  It wasn’t a labels reaching out sort of thing. We met in a gym and made friends first, and then later on we started making music and it just happened very organically. And yeah, I’m really excited to put them out, and see what you people think.”

The new tracks come after Sheeran released his most recent album, ‘= (Equals),’ last year. It housed the hits ‘Bad Habits’ and ‘Shivers.’

Upon its April 2018 release, Cardi B‘s debut album, ‘Invasion of Privacy,’ invaded the Billboard Hot 100 history books by becoming the first female album to chart 13 or more of its tracks on the Hot 100 simultaneously.

By the year’s end, the project was entering the record books of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for becoming the first LP to see all of its tracks certified Gold or higher.

As her dedicated fans – affectionately called the #BardiGang – impatiently await the release of her yet-titled sophomore studio effort, the spins they’ve afforded its predecessor have pushed the set even further into RIAA record books.
