Chloe x Halle Have Taken Beyoncé's Most Important Lesson To Heart

It's almost impossible to imagine that Chloe x Halle would have come as far as they have when they first went viral for a YouTube cover of "Pretty Hurts." Since signing to Parkwood Entertainment, the center of Beyoncé's business world, in 2016 when they were 18 and 16 years old, their pop-cultural reach has grown exponentially. In just four short years, the two young women have dropped two albums, several mixtapes and EPs, soundtracked a major motion picture and joined the ensemble of a popular teen show.

At this point, Chloe and Halle Bailey may be best known for playing the twins Jazz and Skye Forester, respectively, on the show . The Baileys have spent three seasons cultivating and augmenting their fan base through, their most recent release and second full-length album. But more than anything, what the album shows is that the pair have been groomed to become Beyoncé's first true musical successors.
