    Released: April 12, 2024

Trouble in Paradise is the second studio album by American singer and songwriter Chlöe. It was released by Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records on August 9, 2024[1] and was supported by two singles preceding its release: "FYS" and "Boy Bye".[2][3] The album failed to enter any commercial charts.

Background and composition

[edit]

In March 2023, Chlöe released her debut solo album, In Pieces, and embarked on her first headlining tour, the In Pieces Tour, in promotion of the album almost two weeks later.[4] Chlöe announced her second album's title during her Coachella performance on April 19, 2024.[5]

In an interview with Nylon, Chlöe described the album as a "summer fling" and "a coming-of-age celebration of being a woman and having fun, not taking life too seriously."[6] The album was also inspired by the time she spent in Saint Lucia, where the album was mostly recorded.[7] The album features guest appearances and vocals from Fridayy, Ty Dolla Sign, Anderson .Paak, YG Marley, Jeremih and her sister Halle,[8][9] while the tracks are produced by BongoByTheWay, Yeti Beats, Kurtis McKenzie, Carter Lang, Johan Lenox and Ari PenSmith.[10]

Promotion

[edit]

"FYS" was released as the album's lead single on March 1, 2024.,[11] with the second single "Boy Bye" being released a month later on April 12, 2024.[12]

Critical reception

Clash7/10[13]

Shahzaib Hussain of Clash wrote that Chlöe is "creating without pressure and with abandon" for "her nimble, acrobatic voice". Hussain described the album as "transposing the carnal intimations and vocal intimacy of early '00s RnB to tactile, carnival-flavoured beats" and "lugubrious, log-drum rhythms of Amapiano and the bright, syncopated elation of Afro-pop", whose "experimentation [...] sometimes soars, and sometimes falls flat".[13]

Zachary Horvath of HotNewHipHop praised the production, writing that it featured "many subsets of R&B such as contemporary, Afrobeats, and pop", pointing out the evolution of "Chlöe's dynamic and showstopping vocal performances" in comparison to the previous album.[14]
