SZA we know now is not the SZA who first signed with TDE back in 2014

Chloe just needs to chill and more time to develop her persona and sound as a soloist

Normani too
normani been around as a national artist since 2014/15...if you don't have an identity and aint caught on in 8-9 years, stardom aint happening - doesn't mean she should stop making music, but the "she's next" energy for normani is insanity at this point - she's not next

ashanti my nikka? a chick who was at her peak 20 years ago, a chick whose career was pretty much done by 2008...but the chick who also had the record for the biggest female debut when she dropped selling over 500k in a week and multi plat singles for 3-4 years straight? you trying to compare chloe as a new artist to a washed up ashanti who sold hella records? bruh :gucci:


Yes.

I am comparing Chloe to Ashanti.


Ashanti performs her songs the exact same way Chloe does and I think she always has.

I want you to tell me why you never had a problem with Ashanti but have one with Chloe. Is it because Ashanti sold 100 million records or is it because Chloe is a new artist?

1) ashanti when she came out was no where near as oversexed as chloe is trying to be
2) ashanti filled a void fans wanted, chloe is trying to occupy a lane her fans dont want for her - she's a NEW artist trying to ESTABLISH herself, that means maybe you should cater to your fans...the last chick who decided to 180 on her fans also had a failed career - Tinashe
3) ashanti is on the legacy circuit at this point in her career, performing nostalgia tours, no one gives a fukk about what she's doing, just play the hits while on tour with Ja Rule and move on

you're an idiot if you think there's any point in comparing the 2 :dahell:

she been solo/trying to launch since 2017 - it's even worse she had a built in fanbase from a group and has flopped endlessly. and hits? she has one hit thanks to cardi b.

you either have it or you don't - didn't take 5 years for beyonce or justin timberlake to find solo success, they left the group and took off. even slim from 112 had a couple hit singles as a solo act with his non singing ass :heh: if she had next, by now she should be in the ranks of the ella mai's, HER's, jhene aiko's, khelani's, but she's not, she's like a tier 4 r&b chick

What does Chloe have to show for?? :mjlol: :mjlol: Ashanti came out the gate with hits and buzz before her debut album. If Chloe was dropping good singles people wouldn’t be talking. She changed her whole style up (she made better music before going solo) and flopping. Terrible comparison

Just like Jay failed his artist, Beyoncé doing the same

This girl music should have been focus on the mature sisters with class and about they money in the right way and freak behind doors

U threw this girl in the same cereal box with the rest of the water down thots

Could have marketed her on the black woman side of Taylor Swift and show that black women isn’t all about just fukking and sucking

As far as comparisons and as you put it "oversexed" image, when ashanti came out, which was over 20 years ago before there was the internet (social media), her first singles music video featured her in a dress with her t*ts out and straddling Terrance Howard in bed :jbhmm:

It's interesting how you say nobody gives a fukk about what ashanti is doing and yet YOU give a fukk enough about what Chloe is doing to where you take the time to criticize all her career choices as if you have experience being a new r&b artist...

And I'm the idiot? :francis:

Poor thing...

When are some of us Gen X posters going to explain to Gen Z that Aliyah was never top 5 and has been severely overrated by Millennials in death?

Chloe and her sister put out several family friendly albums under Bey, barely went gold if that

But she's grown now and getting attention for her looks so she probably feels she needs to go in this direction to keep up with the top girls i.e. Summer Walker, SZA, Megan, etc

Ppl hype up HER who is on the conservative end but her last album only did 30,40k its first week

None of those so called "hits" were.meither written nor produced by ashanti. So let's not pile all the credit of her buzz to her. To be fair yes she was a great artist, but let's keep it real, murder inc was killing it back then so it's fair to say ashanti had alot of help "out the gate"

yes - chole - new girl who is supposed to take off
ashanti - old act only her old fans care about

that's usually how things go - movies, music, sports, etc move on to new people, older acts who are no longer poppin are after thoughts:gucci:
