Star of The Voice 2024 CHLOEJET’s music career is taking flight before our eyes. Her starkly contemporary sound, blending pop, modern R&B, and elements of trap music has yielded big singles including Why and Used To You Pt.2. Beyond music, she’s not afraid to speak out about her passions, including animal rights, and her experience in the reality music television machine. CHLOEJET speaks to Headliner about surviving as a London artist, why a trip to the cinema inspired her to pursue music and her latest single Timeline.
How is life in London?
It’s good, thank you! I’m at home in my little studio booth that my friend built for me. I earn my living singing around London at hotels and member clubs, and then I do my own gigs as an artist as well. I'm vegan, and I love it. London is such a great city to be vegan. I love animals, I love the environment, and I'm just happy to be here, to be honest. And I absolutely adore music, I can't wait until my career takes off.
How is London specifically as an independent artist?
Well, as a musician, a freelancer and self-employed, every month is different. You just don't know what to expect. To be honest, things were quite quiet in November regarding gigs, and that allowed me to work a lot on myself and my music. I just released a song on the seventh of November [Timeline], and that is doing okay. I'm trying to push out more. I'm currently solo. I don't have any management or a team, so everything is falling onto me. So it's been difficult, but again, I'm grateful. The last few months have been great, and I'm just happy to be here.
