Chloe Qisha returns with her new single, ‘So Sad So Hot’, out now via Columbia (UK) / RCA (USA). The new single, which premiered on BBC Radio 1’s ‘Future Pop’ last night, is the first new music release from Chloe since her sophomore EP, Modern Romance, which was released in May 2025. The accompanying music video will be released tonight at 19:30 BST.
On So Sad So Hot, Chloe Qisha delivers another undeniable future-pop gem. The track bursts with vibrant, upbeat melodies, weaving in funk and disco influences from across the decades, yet remaining fresh and firmly rooted in contemporary pop – this intoxicating blend has quickly become Chloe’s signature sound. For the single, she teamed up with Caroline Ailin (Dua Lipa, Charli XCX, Katseye) and her longtime collaborator Rob Milton, resulting in an instant earworm that feels both timeless and cutting-edge.
Speaking about her new single, Chloe Qisha said:
“‘So Sad So Hot’ is a playful take on heartbreak – finding yourself in the throes of sadness whilst being the most magnetic person in the room. I wanted to write a song about wearing sadness as an accessory, letting it empower you instead of it dragging you down. I like to think that this song is an assertive reminder that you’re still that bad bitch even if you’ve had your heart broken. This song is the opener to a new era for me, and I’m so excited she’s coming in with a bang.”
