Chlöe Reveals Release Date for Sophomore Album ‘Trouble in Paradise’

“A storm is coming” this summer: Chlöe revealed on Monday (Aug. 5) that her second studio album, Trouble in Paradise, will be released on Friday, Aug. 9, via Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records.

The 26-year-old singer-songwriter-producer-actress shared the news alongside a picture of her wading in midnight blue water while wearing a neon green dress on her socials. She captioned the pre-save announcement with, “a storm is coming.”

“Oh snap !!!!!” Tinashe commented on Chlöe’s Trouble in Paradise announcement on Instagram.

“It’s what a summer fling feels and tastes like,” Chlöe told Billboard on the red carpet of the 2024 BET Awards. She also revealed the inspiration behind the LP’s production: “I have been obsessed with the Caribbean, so definitely Afrobeats-inspired, island vibes. That’s what I’ve been inspired by, so you’ll definitely hear some little nuances of that in there.”

Chlöe released two singles, “FYS” and “Boy Bye,” earlier this year, and she hopped on the remixes of Nigerian singer-songwriter Qing Madi’s “Vision” and Tinashe‘s Rhythmic Airplay No. 7 hit “Nasty.”

In her Nylon cover story from June, she revealed her sister Halle, Anderson .Paak and Jeremih will be featured on her forthcoming project.

Trouble in Paradise arrives more than a year after her solo debut studio album, In Pieces. The 14-track LP includes collaborations with Chris Brown (“How Does It Feel”), Missy Elliott (“Told Ya”) and Future (“Cheatback”). The set reached No. 119 on the Billboard 200 and No. 17 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.
