I’m speaking on behalf of all the UK. We are proud of her. We are glad you finally acknowledged her talent!

To the person who stole Raye's Car with her journals that has all her songs, so no second album. Count. Your. Days.

Raye is incredible. The US is a little late to the party but I am loving all the stateside attentions she is getting now. Well deserved.

I wish Kelly had an after hours podcast where she could do deep dives with guests like Raye! They seemed to really vibe in just these short six minutes, and I would love to hear them have a proper sit down for an hour to talk more in depth ❤

Raye’s the biggest talent out of the UK currently. Im not joking, she out rapped rappers on songs she features on 😭

She needs to do the next Bond theme. Let's will it into existence!!!

"Nobody cares about songwriters" because they're never brought to the forefront. They aren't visible. They're just... there... somewhere in the very far background, doing their craft, writing some outstanding lyrics, but nobody cares because nobody, except for a few, knows about them. Bring them forward.

I hope this is the beginning of an amazing friendship between Raye and Kelly. This album is amazing! I hopped on the Raye train after seeing her at the Brits. Love her!!!

Kelly and Raye need to start their own label.

Her rise to stardom is so important for the music industry. She‘s showing artists that they can have total control over their art and how they share it with the world. She‘s fighting the fight alone and she‘s doing it perfectly. She just wants to be an artist, let her be.

One of the greatest vocalists and creatives of our generation. Without a doubt

Such a pleasure to hear two real artists talking shop.

raye has always been outspoken about the unfair discrepancies between the payments for record labels VS producers/writers. i recommend watching her other interviews to get a more in depth understanding of royalty rates. it’s so unfair.

it’s the same reason beyoncé credits and pays EVERYONE, including dead folks, the estates of artists, everyone from an interpolation, etc.

She’s a breath of fresh air

I found Raye maybe a week ago and I'm blown away by some of the songs she has released. Not only is she an extremely talented singer but the girl can spit serious rap lyrics. She's one of the dopest performers I have come across and all of my 53 years.
