The lyrics to "Not Today" were inspired by a pivotal time in Chloe's life, when she felt the need to turn inward and put off all the hardships. The song evokes the state of mind of weariness, where you no longer have the strength to fight against anything, a feeling that can become oppressive. It's a bit like selfishness and a "I don't care"ism that invades us. However, the chorus stresses the importance of staying true to yourself and not roleplaying, saying "not today". This expression expresses the desire not to wear a mask and to seek to be authentic.

Recorded by Ezana Beyene, also known as Daimon, "Not Today" boasts impeccable production by Lilei and Roller Coaster (Switzerland) as well as mixing by Austin Leeds (US) and mastering by Roger Roland (Belgium). Their hard work brought Chloé Ndiaye's musical vision to life, creating a unique blend of contemporary pop sounds and driving beats.

For this title, Chloé was inspired by artists such as Jhene Aiko, Snoh Aalegra and Ariana Grande. She has created a "dreamy" and soothing musical universe, with a soft voice that conveys intense emotions. "Not Today" is a title that will leave no one indifferent, with R&B sounds influenced by jazz and popular music.

"Not Today" promises to be a poignant track, with sincere lyrics and a sweet, captivating voice. Chloé Ndiaye is an emerging singer, influenced by popular music, funk, jazz and everything that can inspire her. Her soothing and floating musical universe, as well as her expressive writing, make her a promising artist.
