Chloe Qisha is modern-day damsel in distress in new ‘YDH’ video
The irresistibly catchy track finds the popstar-in-waiting on the hunt for her knight in shining armour.

Chloe Qisha is back with her first release of 2026, the winkingly cheeky, unashamedly thirsty ‘YDH’ (that’s “young, dumb, and horny, btw).
The follow up to last year’s earworm ‘So Sad So Hot’, the DIY Class of 2026 alum’s new single continues her run of solid-gold pop bangers, cementing her status as nothing short of a future superstar. Accompanied by an equally playful video which puts a thoroughly modern twist on medieval courtship, ‘YDH’ has been described by Chloe as “the perfect reset for a very stress year”.
Continuing, she explains: “It reminded me that this next project [the successor to 2025 EP ‘Modern Romance’] is about chasing fun. The song taps into that feral, fairy-tale kind of attraction - the all-consuming crush that makes you reckless, invested, and a little dramatic.
“It’s one of the fantasies I’ll be dipping into for this next project - I want people to let their hair down, and stepping into full princess mode. This song was made for hootin’ and hollerin’ in the shower, at home with your cats, on a night out - wherever.”
Following a storming 2025 which saw her support Coldplay at Wembley Stadium and Sabrina Carpenter at BST Hyde Park, Chloe’s due to embark on her debut North American tour this Spring. Find out full details of where to catch her and watch the video for ‘YDH’ below.
