It was only a matter of time before Chloe x Halle were going to be discovered, but to be plucked from YouTube by Beyoncé herself is actually unheard of. According to Billboard, Beyoncé signed the sisters to her record label, Parkwood Entertainment, in 2015 and took them under her wing. The sister duo are seemingly the first protégés of the international superstar, and it seems that they are willing to work just as hard as their mentor to get where they want to be.
In a 2020 interview with Billboard, Chloe Bailey explained that Queen Bey allows them to "flourish" and create music on their own, providing feedback accordingly. "Once we feel like we've gotten [a song] at a very strong place, that's when we'll present it to her and that's when she'll hear it and give us notes, if she has any," she said. "I would just have to say that seeing how hands-on she is with her own music, and seeing how she is a fantastic business woman, it is so inspiring to my sister and I as young Black women because one day, we want to take over our own empire, as well."
She added: "And if we could ever even get half of what she has accomplished, then we've done our job."
