I’ve been asked, what’s my go-to style of music, and I never know what to say. 80’s diva? Female singer/songwriter? Music that makes my husband’s ears bleed? Chloe Qisha may have explained it best when plugging her new album, Fantasize, as being the type of music for “heartbroken, horny girls and gays.” Nailed it!
Fantasize is sexy music but not for a dance club, more like a gentlemen’s club. Think high-class stripper (maybe not even high-class) with slow buildups for hip gyrating and thumping beats for tittie shimmies. Up-lifting music as you’re hitting bottom.
With each listen, something new brings a smile to my face. Chloe’s songwriting style is funny and smart. In my gay opinion, this album’s best lyrics are from “Surprise Surprise”:
No, it’s not your fault you’re a dumbass
I’ve always known that
Now, there’s tears in my eyes
Surprise surprise
And from the title song “Fantasize”:
It’s a brand new me and she’s finally free
‘Cause I’ve taken her out the box
She’s running ’round and trying things
Her safe word is “Knock, knock”
Fantasize has set quite a high bar for Chloe that will be hard to top on future albums. However, knowing “Chlo, Chlo” she’ll strap one on and be up for the challenge. Until then I’ll have Fantasize on repeat as I practice my pole routines. Get your singles ready!
