    Hi friends! As always, thank you so much for stopping in, appreciate you endlessly ♥ I just want to apologize for the fact that the editing, specifically toward the end of this video, is not my best. My editing software is not running great at the moment and is making it really hard to edit in the way I usually do. And the farther I get into each project, the worse the lag/glitchiness gets so by the time I reach the last song on an album, it’s just completely helpless. I will definitely be trying to address this before I start any more videos! It’s just super frustrating and I’m sorry this video isn’t really up to my usual standards. Anyway, I hope you all are doing well and taking care of yourselves, love u!

      I usually don’t associate with the Grammys, but I always pay attention to who wins this award because it’s names that lots of people don’t know and if they are nominated or win, LOTS of people see it and want to check them out. I hope its her, but there are A LOT of really good artists so far and there’s still months before nominations happen. 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾

    I have some info for you about the album:
    The girl on the album cover is RAYE's younger sister who is supposed to resemble younger RAYE.
    RAYE's old record label wouldn't let her release her album because they didn't think it would be successful (hence the lyric "I've waited seven years for this moment). So to be petty and to promote the release of her new album, she got an installation of the instruments on the album cover to be put in front of her old record label. 🤪💅

    • @caitlinmariereacts

    RAYE is truly so good, I love her jazz vibes reminiscent of Amy Winehouse and the way she uses rap and musical switch ups reminds me of Twenty One Pilots (this way of using rap in order to get out a train of thought, like in Escapism at the end)

    Raye is an ARTIST! The fact that she's so underrated is crazy to me! She's been through a lot in her life, but she's an amazing human being and an amazing artist as well! We all know she writes her music, but she's also a producer and she co-produced most of the songs from this album. She's also writes and produces music for other artists from time to time. She's super talented! I wish her all the best cause she deserves everything good in the world.
    This album is easily one of the best albums this year. Love her ❤

    Love seeing this reaction, Raye has been building in the UK for so many years now and it's so good to see that she's finally getting her flowers and being appreciated all over the world! It's crazy how her former label tried for so long to stifle her potential and make her more mainstream, I mean she made some amazing bops back in those days too, but her artistry is so much more than that!

    She is mind blowing. At first, I liked the album but thought it was just ok but then when I heard her story and really listened in after it became incredible, and I just hope that she blows up to be big. I can already see her doing one of the greatest Superbowl halftimes right now.
    P.S I saw another person commented a little list of things about her that really just helps add to the understanding of how amazing she is.

    BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE! LOVE THIS ALBUM. ALSO DONT KNOW I YOU REALIZED BUT THE MUSIC VIDEOS ARE TELLING A STORY, REALIZED IT SOME TIME AGO. 1st Hard Out Here, at the end she's driving to the club, and in 2nd Black Mascara she's in the club, 3rd Escapism, there's party and she's "high" trying to escape her problems (also she's driving in the ROYCE, black mascara reference girl) 4th Ice Cream Man, she's in the bathroom of the club possibly crying and being touched (y'all know) and I hope 5th one is on the way.
    Edit: I'm here again watching this reaction AND we have the next mv from RAYE for a couple months. it's an MV for Flip a Switch with Coi Leray where she is basically on the beginning ON THE FLOOR SHOT BY A MAN. Which exactly connects with Ice Cream Man mv bc she is in THE SAME BATHROOM AND IN THE BATHROOM THERE WAS ALSO A MAN. IT CONNECTS. MY THEORY WAS RIGHT. In the mv she is with Coi in the bus and she's basically riding and at the end SHE shots a man. I NEED ANOTHER MV FROM QUEEN AND MOTHER.
