great reaction! raye is so talented and evokes this same reaction for almost every first time listener haha. she’s such a dynamic artist and her live performances are on a whole other level. i hope to see you react to her more! i’m subbing for more raye and jungle:)
Hey, loved your reaction. Seemed like you'd been hit by a train at points, but well, that's what she does to some people, me included. Found her half a year ago and she's definitely my greatest discovery in 2024, what an artist, she's complete and I absolutely adore her. As Rana has already said it all in her comments and you got some great suggestions as well I don't have to add more. Subbed for the journey, good to hear you're also doing Ren, might watch some of those until your next reaction to RAYE's coming up... Peace and love from Bavaria!
Been enjoying your Ren content so finding RAYE is a super bonus. great reaction yeah you get a sub lol. Any RAYE fans just opened a RAYE Rabbit hole and reactions group. Come join in !
Here for your Raye reactions!! I’d suggest ‘Oscar Winning Tears’ live at Royal Albert Hall to see her live. But her music video for Escapism (about coping with life using substances) is also fire. ❤❤❤
She was under contract with a record label for 7 years.. but they told her she wasn’t good enough to release an album.. and they had her writing songs for artists like Beyoncé, John Legend, Charlie xcx etc. She finally got the courage to break free of her label and then released her first album independently ‘My 21st Century Blues’. The album went on to win 6 Brit awards (a record for any artist) and she’s now been nominated for Best New Artist at the Grammies. She likely won’t win the Grammy sadly.. she’s kinda been black balled by the industry since she left. She’s written songs and given interviews which tell some horrendous stories about her experiences.. and as a result, shes made herself an enemy of the ‘industry’. Less than 900k subs.. crazy.
Seems I don't have to write any more comments, you mentioned all the essentials and she'll find out more along the journey... That's enough for a start. I might add her EMAs medley and the BRITS medley as suggestions for future reactions... What do you think?
If you want a deep dive please watch her tiny desk performance it’s haunting how talented and underrated she is 🥰
Please watch her performing Oscar winning tears live at the Royal Albert Hall. She’s with a massive orchestra!
Hey Jamie!
Very dark to light. Well that's Raye's career in a nutshell. As this song shows, she now enjoying life.
RAYE - It's A Man's Man's Man's World (Live at Montreux Jazz Festival)
I highly recommend checking out "Oscar Winning Tears" Live from the Royal Albert Hall. Stunning performance.

All her songs are deep.. even ones which sound like pop on the surface. The lyrics are always vulnerable and real. ❤
Peace and blessings!
Wow she was fire first time hearing her loved it

You're just getting started. First, listen, in the dark, to the entire album (My 21st Century Blues). Then go watch everything Raye!
Subbing for Raye, but about to go check your Ren reactions in the meantime!
Oh, she got Ren as well? Good to know, thanks!
That was great!
If Amy was mutli talanted, across genres and could hold a full performance.
😍😍😍
