3 songs left, and I haven't found ANYTHING for me except the ones I loved before the albums release. And I was so hyped :messga:

Okay, I've listened to everything. Not an album for me, great vocals, but that's it. Guess the blues in the title was very literal, way too bluesy/jazzy for me. Escapism and Black Mascara don't fit the other songs on the album, they're from another planet, which I hope she'll explore further one day.

You’ll love her unreleased songs like Fantastic and Born Again, both were considered for the album and have a similar sound to Hard Out Here and Escapism

I know them all! I'm enjoying her unreleased songs soooo much, they're very vibey. Born Again, California Dreaming, and Walk On By (which is actually released) are my favs!

I LOVE Raye. Been a huge stan since Side Tape days in 2018. 

I’ve managed to get the vinyl shipped today here in the UK a day before official release. Sounds amazing. Side 1 is flawless. Can’t wait for her album release party / concert tomorrow. Wooooo!

Added to my playlist of favorite albums from this year!! Really, really good. I think it surpasses all the albums already on there for me.

This is a VERY good album. I had only heard Escapism before so i had no idea what was waiting for me but I'm really impressed.

Soft, soothing, and succulent

2nd post in this thread, but can I just say that I love that we are discussing this incredible album by a super talented, underrated, misunderstood female pop artist (with a background in jazz) who has spoken out against sexual assault.

There are quite a few similarities with Gaga. I know they are two very different artists, but wow, LOVE that this is happening right now.

Been a huge fan of RAYE since 2018 and I’m so happy that people are finally realising her talent. She has potential to be HUGE. Imagine a Gaga x RAYE collab??

Absolutely my album of the year so far. It is such an intimate, raw album in a lot of regards. RAYE has cemented herself as a wildly versatile artist. Going thru a rough break up rn and this song is hitting all the points, sonically the album feels like it goes thru the stages of grief.
