    Black Mascara is the only true dance track on the album. Dance music was pretty much the only music that RAYE was allowed to sing while with her previous label. This album is very different from most of her past music, so she added one dance track on there! So full circle, I love this album so much, I’ve been waiting for like 6+ years! ❤️‍🔥

    The really cool thing about environmental anxiety is that it makes you feel anxious when listening with all that’s going on in the production… it’s not everybody’s taste but it’s definitely art.

    One of the times it would mean even more to you if you knew a little of her backstory. Such a celebration of her independence and finally getting her project out into the world. I've watched about 5 reactions to this early AOTY and New Artist Grammy contender and I enjoyed yours the most. Thanks for doing the Tiny Desk bonus. As an FYI... there is an hour long live set of RAYE performing her album available on CZcams. Just search for "Raye - Live at City Sessions Los Angeles". It is totally worth your time

    Just back to say hi and so proud of our girl Raye and her SIX Brit awards! So happy for her after the diss by the Grammys. Between her wins and the medley she performed I'm hoping the world is about to learn who Raye is! btw. I think I've watched this review 5 or 6 times now.... lolz

  • @geszek
    @geszek Před rokem +20

    After all this years, she finally had a chance to make this album and let me say it loud and clear: It's one of the best albums this year, if not the best.
    In all those songs you can hear pain, honesty, freedom and you can hear Raye! She writes her own music, we know that, but she's also a producer and she co-produced almost all of the songs in this album!
    She is super talented. She's an amazing human being and she really deserves a better recognition. I wish her all the best, she deserves it ❤

  • @glammoerous
    @glammoerous Před rokem +15

    I adore Raye! love love this album. Reason this is her 1st album is her prev record compay kept her in a preditory contract. She was signed to release 4 albums starting from when she was 17 years old but they didnt allow her to release even one. She got out of her contract in 2022 (i believe) and is now independent! Also the reason she said all the songs sound all diffrent is because she wrote most of these songs over the past 7 years and they were supposed to go on her debut albums, which never happened. The label would contantly lie over the past 7 years and promise her debut albums multiple times. Each time they promised her an album she would create a diffrent type of album . If this material is 7 years old, i cant wait to see the new stuff she can come up with now. Raye said song writing is her super power and i 1000% agree. She wrote for alot of other artist (Beyonce, John Legend, Ellie Golding, Madison Beer and soo many more). Def check out her song writing credits! Shes in the top 100 streamed artist on spotify and in the world!

      thank you so much for providing that context! i am literally obsessed with her rn and that info makes me even more impressed. as you mentioned, if this is her old work i can only imagine what she’ll make now!!

  • @CallumboMagumbo
    @CallumboMagumbo Před rokem +20

    So glad you reacted to this album. I’ve been following Raye for years (since seeing her supporting Halsey on tour) - she has a great Dance Pop EP called Euphoric Sad Songs which I adore and because of that I adore her song Black Mascara most but I’m so happy she is getting to do what she wants now. Really excited to see her live in September!
    I thi k you’d really enjoy her EP euphoric sad songs and (because you like Ava Max) Bebe Rexha has a great disco pop album that came out today!

    The thrill is gone is not a jazz song at all, it is a R&B/Funk song, that's why it has brass and loud drums, which you never meet in jazz music. This is also the reason many compare her to Amy Winehouse, because that kind of R&B sound was famous with Amy.
    (And the whole album too, there's no jazz at all, there's some blues influence, but the majority sound that you described was R&B :)

    I just recently bought this album. It appears that the recording studio mess up with the recording, the Escapism track has way too much gain, it sounds distorted and horrible to listen to. Radio 1's live lounge did a much better copy
