Many of you may know her as one half of sibling-singing duo Chloe x Halle who rose to fame for their song covers on YouTube.

Even though they might seem like an overnight sensation, Chloe x Halle, who are originally from Atlanta, Georgia, have been posting songs since 2008 when Halle was eight years old and Chloe was ten. Some of their more popular videos include their covers of Rihanna’s “Diamonds,” “All of Me” by John Legend, and “Say Something” by Great Big World and Christina Aguilera. In a rare solo appearance on YouTube, Halle wowed with a cover of Nat King Cole’s “Unforgettable.”
Since gaining major notoriety in the past few years, the sisters sang “America the Beautiful” at the Super Bowl Halftime Show in February of 2019 and were also nominated for two Grammys at the 2019 awards. Unfortunately they didn’t win, but they were nominated in the categories of Best New Artist and Best Urban Contemporary Album for their original R&B album “The Kids Are Alright.”
