Chloe Bailey is teaming up with Chris Brown for her upcoming single, How Does It Feel. The songstress, who recently attended Clive Davis' annual pre-GRAMMY gala, announced their new collab on Instagram with a photo of them sharing an intimate embrace. Chloe, 24, wore a skintight leather dress as the Say It With Me singer, 33, gently placed his hands upon her waist with his forehead resting on hers.
The new song will be released February 24, several weeks before the release of her debut album In Pieces. '2ND PIECE. HOW DOES IT FEEL @chrisbrownofficial. 2/24,' she captioned the post.
She also shared a sample of what appeared to be the new song on her Instagram Stories with a video of her posing up a storm in a red latex dress. 'How does it feel?' she wrote in the video, along with a red heart emoji. Chloe, who rose to fame as part of a duo with her sister Halle Bailey, will be releasing her first solo album next month. 
Chloe gushed about submitting her album as she shared snaps of her working on the project in an Instagram post.
'i turned in the album!!! been crying tears of joy. 3 years in the making. can’t wait for y’all to hear … SOON!!! #inpieces,' she captioned the post, shared Wednesday. The post showed Chloe in the midst of the creative process, from the dance studio to the recording booth.

Fans immediately began to reply with sentiments of disdain. “We will absolutely not be streaming. catch you next time tho,” one follower tweeted. The controversy follows the public altercation between her sister, Halle Bailey, her boyfriend DDG and his ex Rubi Rose. Not a great week for the duo, however, some fans believe it may be part of a bigger plan to distract from her sister’s current media frenzy.
For the unfamiliar, Brown was notoriously canceled after a domestic violence altercation with ex-partner Rihanna and then Karrueche Tran. Bailey’s career signifies female empowerment and exudes power as she rides solo, a contrast from her duo days with Chloe x Halle. As a result, her choice to feature a known abuser may not be one she can come back from.

Though “How Does It Feel” provides yet another look into Bailey’s debut, some fans were less than thrilled with her decision to feature Brown on the track. “Is it really that difficult to not work with known abusers or do ppl in the industry just not care at all,” an Instagram user commented on her post. There were individuals that also defended Brown and Bailey, with one user stating, “They’re singing a song not dating. Y’all need to get over what Chris Brown did when he was 18/20s. The man is in his 30s now. Are y’all the same person you were at 18?”
Chloë Bailey was immediately met with online backlash from fans who questioned why she is collaborating with controversial singer Chris Brown who has been accused several times for violence against women.
One critic tweeted that people might be failing black women if they have to collaborate with known abusers in order to rank on the charts. Other users tweeted that people will defend their collaboration claiming that Brown's history of violence against women was one time thing, even when his track record of violence is from 2009 to 2022. Some fans even defended Chloë Bailey collaboration with Chris Brown saying that the singer should just do her thing rather than focusing on the mean and bitter online comments.
