"FYS" is a single by the American singer Chlöe. It was released on March 1, 2024, through Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records.[1][2]

Background and release[edit]

In early February, 2024, Chlöe and Halle confirmed they were working on a new project toghether.[3][4][5] Despite this, on February 24, 2024 Chlöe annunced the publication of "FYS" as a solo single.[6][7] Halle also annunced a solo song, "In Your Hands", published on March 15, 2024.[8]

Composition[edit]

"FYS" was written and produced by the singer herself with BongoByTheWay.[9] Chlöe explained the meaning of the song: "I wrote this song to be like "f*** your status," it doesn’t matter because I have this on my own. So you having cars and you having money it doesn’t really matter... I just want to love you... This song is really just about loving someone for who they are and not what they have or can give you monetarily wise."[10]

Reception[edit]

Clash writer Hussain Shahzaib described the song as a "bold departure from the emotionally brittle feel of its predecessor... more earthy and lyrically risqué" and linking the "murky, mercurial R&B" to the first Chloe x Halle projects.[11] Álex González of Uproxx described the sound as "rhythmic and alternative R&B", praising the lyrics about self-empowerment.[12]

Live performance[edit]

Chlöe performed the song live at the 35th GLAAD Media Awards on March 14, 2024.[13]
