R&B sister duo Chloe x Halle has been keeping busy during 2020, as they release their sophomore album, Ungodly Hour.

The two sat down with Taylor Bryant from E! News and talked about what they’ve been up to during quarantine. Chloe shared that she keeps herself busy during quarantine by working out, while Halle likes to get lost in a book. They showed their gratitude for being able to throw themselves into their art in order to keep sane while being stuck in their house, and they hope that their music is helping fans make it through as well.

When the world went into lockdown, we lost out on the luxuries of the in-person entertainment that distracted us from life’s daily woes, but the stars we adore found ways to keep us entertained. The ‘Do It’ singers used their own home to stage virtually performances for shows like The Today Show and Jimmy Kimmel Live! with elaborate backdrops and stunning costumes. The two even choreographed their own performance of the album’s title track for MTV’s Video Music Awards. Halle hinted at new music coming that the two cannot wait to share once they are done shooting videos and performing music from Ungodly Hour.

Fans are patiently waiting to see more of the sisters as Jazz and Sky on Freeform’s Grown-ish. The second half of the third season has been pushed to 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on filming. Chloe mentioned how she appreciates the show choosing to address the “good, bad, and ugly” of college life and the effects that it has on mental health. They also used their platform to spread more inspiration when hosting Glamour Magazine’s Women of the Year Awards, spreading a message about a special gift that each person has.

While the pandemic caused many celebrities to slow down and take a break from their work, Chloe x Halle has dominated the virtual performance stage, captured hearts on Grown-ish, and given 2020 a hip soundtrack. We cannot wait to see what else they have in store.
