Earlier today (Sept. 5), NPR Music premiered the latest episode of their “Tiny Desk Concert” series, which sees Chlöe Bailey as the latest guest to perform for the Washington, D.C. office venue. Following a smooth rendition of “Surprise,” the Atlanta talent blessed viewers and attendees with selections from her debut LP, In Pieces, including “I Don’t Mind,” “Cheatback,” and the title track, the last of which she preceded with a short explanation.
“I feel like it’s important to be honest and transparent about our vulnerabilities and what we’re going through,” she explained. “A lot of times I’ve been broken down and the cracks would be left, but that doesn’t make me imperfect. That doesn’t take away any beauty that I have deep inside. And it’s important to surround ourselves with the ones who’ll appreciate us in all of that glory.”
In Pieces was released back in March with 14 songs and assists from Chris Brown, Missy Elliott, and Future. Following a top 20 debut on Billboard‘s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, the Parkwood-signed star kicked off her “In Pieces Tour” in April to support the well-received effort. Said tour comes to an end in London in late September.
As previously reported by REVOLT, Chlöe took to Instagram to thank her fans for supporting her during the aforementioned tour. “What an incredible run. I will never forget this moment in my life. There was definitely enough blood, sweat, and tears to fill a swimming pool,” she wrote. “Thank you for flying high with me, for loving me, for selling the stage out every night, and [for] making my first headlining tour so special. I love you.”
