RAYE Performs “Genesis” | The Daily Show

[@person35790]

She’s like the 50s found hip hop ❤

[@Fellowtellurian]

I was going to say the 1920s made love to HipHop and produce Raye

[@Ozymandi_as]

Classic, but gangster as well.

[@khoahoanh930]

the third part of this song was cut. Everyone should search on KZbin for another performance of this song. True GEM.

[@jules-hic]

yesss this performance was fantastic but the tempo change and brass switch up at the end really completes the song in such an important way, i love it sm!!

[@offtarget1758]

Thanks!! Would not have known and seriously been missing out! ❤

[@Fellowtellurian]

Can’t find it anywhere 😢

[@Fellowtellurian]

World: "What genre is this?" Raye: "Yes"

[@LanceHall-m3n]

To say she is talented is a gross understatement. She is this generation’s Amy Winehouse and will eventually be considered one of the greats.

[@judithgrayhack1233]

I thought the exact same thing…

[@08mlascelles]

Personally I find her a lot more interesting than Amy, and I really liked Amy Winehouse. Musically she’s a lot more experimental which I personally enjoy more

[@MichaelO-wp7fj]

She's talented and the song, WOW 😮

[@Mallory-Malkovich]

I was not prepared for how moving this song was gonna be

[@offtarget1758]

No kidding!

[@herbalt]

imagine you came to a show to hear some people make some jokes about politics, when suddenly....

[@sebastianmontesinos2207]

this is epic! RAYE's killing it and no one can say otherwise ❤

[@kaimeijsing-pioletti1038]

There‘s truly nobody like her out there at the moment. Her „My 21st Century Symphony“ (Live at Royal Albert Hall) is one of the best live albums I‘ve ever heard. She‘s truly a once in a generational Talent. So proud of RAYE and so happy to have her music in these dark and unsettling times ❤️🖤🤍

[@Dcjc25]

It was absolutely amazing!

[@melizmatea]

She's so amazing. It's exciting because to me she really does feel like a one-in-a-lifetime talent - and there are many talented musicl artists, but she is above that, and I just didn't expect to hear someone sing that I would feel that way about! Such a great surprise to find her!

[@deeliciousplum]

Oh, my goodness! What a breathtaking singing voice. I did not know what to expect. Well, RAYE's voice just rolled over me like an Earth-sized boulder. Incredible! 🌸

[@melizmatea]

That's how I felt when I first heard her sing, and again watching this!!

[@telduncan973]

YOU BETTA SING RAYE!!! Just like Worth It each performance of this keeps topping the last🔥🔥👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@Baraz_Red]

First time I hear her honestly. Refreshing to hear lyrics that sound real, like an artist expressing themselves for real. Respect. With mad talent!

[@rejaakkk3831]

this lady can write and perform, wow ❤

[@christinachavez395]

Never stop. The world needs your music. Powerful. Beautiful. Thank you

[@Adsderose]

Didn't stop shaking my head in awe throughout that entire performance. Unbelievable talent.

[@melizmatea]

I know, incredible in every way - amazing voice, so much expression and depth of emotion, a unique, kind of quirky but beautiful and charismatic performance style, great songwriter, great lyricist, intelligent and interesting music, and on top of it she's stunning but again in a unique -utterly cool and kind of a throwback to 50's beauty. I just love her!

[@mattmayo3539]

The stage production on TDS is world class. I think of a certain show that comes on Saturday night. They wish they had this level of production. What a beautiful showcase of live music.

[@brit50ify]

WOW. Looked for info and found this Quote " In March 2024, Raye performed a medley of a few of her hits at the BRIT Awards, where she won six out of seven nominations including Artist of the Year, breaking the record for most awards awarded to an artist in one night in the history of the BRIT Awards" Proud to be a Brit. How come its so hard to find these 'new' acts over here in US?

[@tylerkochman1007]

She didn’t just break the record. She broke it twice (the previous record was 4 awards in 1 night). And she swept every category she was nominated in (she had two nominations for “song of the year”) Her number of nominations was also a record And she broke the glass ceiling by becoming the first woman to win “songwriter of the year”

[@paulacosmina5438]

ummm...gatekeeping?... who would adore Beyonce if artists like Raye were on the US stages?

[@amasim86]

​@paulacosmina5438 you know what's funny? Raye has written songs for Beyonce and many other artists.

[@stefrost4029]

Some actual originality in music!!! 😯❤❤

[@wasabiginger6993]

Love how deeply genuine she is ... sharing her heart and openly transparents of her personal truths ... transformed into her personal victories ... with music that spans so many generations of music ... with such a stunning heart-voice!

[@clairebrindley5928]

Every song of her's is like a musical story, truely an wonderful young singer 😊

[@Sami-d4e5l]

She is an Icon and She is the MOMENT

[@davejavumorse0416]

What a killa voice. 🎉

[@BigBrain_PhD]

Wow Raye is amazing.

[@alexandrehenri-bhargava2741]

Never heard of her. Amazing song and singer. Thanks TDS and algorithm

[@MrSiriusAB]

Check put Oscar Winning Tears

[@sunseeker9581]

Shes a huge uk star thats won loads of awards already

[@tolhumexy6706]

Check out her performances at Glastonbury and the Brit Awards. Not my normal genre but she is special.

[@ValdestotsVoice]

Raye's Escapism was her breakout song.

[@deanvaillancourt2881]

Very unique and eclectic.

[@marktodd7397]

I thoroughly recommend anyone to listen to her Album My 21st Century Blues. The production is absolutely sublime. It is actually tiring at times how it pulls on every emotion. She sings every style of music possible with ease. Live recommendations are... 1) Oscar winning tears live at the Royal Albert hall 2) singing James Browns Its a mans mans world at Montreux jazz festival. Her full set is now available on her youtube channel. 3) Medley at the Brit Awards. Enjoy!!

[@EF-kk3vh]

Thanks for the reminder to rewatch the BRIT awards medley for the fiftieth time. My absolute fav

[@henrique8480]

this song deserves more recognition!!!

[@sunseeker9581]

The US is always alow to catch up with uk music

[@paulacosmina5438]

ALL her songs deserves more recognition!! Raye is BOMB

[@terryellsworth5848]

Fantastic! Daily Show featuring RAYE 🌹❤️. Incredible new artist ... purely authentic blend of classic jazz, soul, blues, with 90s hiphop and driving pop beats. Truly a Young Legend 💎💖

[@sphudson]

She’s a genius. A brilliant songwriter. A brilliant singer. I feel privileged to be living during this period watching her navigate a journey to the top. ❤️

[@hermithollow2024]

You and your voice are beautiful Raye!❤❤❤

[@tclm]

I’ve now listened three times. This is breathtaking.

[@sunseeker9581]

Now listen to the uncut version

[@Shelleysnail]

Also listen to her set at the Montreux Jazz Festival 2024 🔥

[@patriciabyrne7391]

She has never had a bad song! She’s amazing!👍💃🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💃🏻

[@filmsquirksbts1132]

Love you, Raye!

[@Bubbles-kk9zs]

This is amazing. It's like she's captured what some of us are feeling and added an amazing beat to it. 🥹

[@Howelton2020]

She's fantastic!

[@johnprojectimage]

I must admit, this was the first time I heard or saw her. Completely ashamed. I was BLOWN AWAY. Stunning voice, highly intelligent, amazing lyrics. Qualities you don't often get in female singers anymore. I'm in love.

[@ncritchlow1]

Me too!

[@Youtubeaccount50512]

And she wrote these lyrics herself with no other co writer 💅

[@Rlee571]

What an artist! 👏

[@AuditioningByHeart]

Is this the first time the daily show has a singing artist on? I’m not mad! This lady was amazing.

[@AsmaAl-said]

Keep shining girl ❤️ everyone in the universe should listen to that voice

[@ciaransammon]

RAYE IS THE MOMENT.

[@dawnsstar5918]

Another real singer. Yes.

[@irene8alby]

Wow! Gorgeous!!!

[@chorleystar]

Im surprised she hasnt cracked US already. She's huge in UK

[@melizmatea]

She is so far beyond what is going on here, IMO - she just has to catch on! She is someone who should be cleaning up at the Grammys next year, she is soooooo amazing.

[@paulacosmina5438]

cuz gatekeeping. Beyonce is finished if Raye and other artists like like break the Us market

[@frankgemein5754]

my eyes are rivers too. what a singer, what a song. Each and everybody so gifted on the stage. Haven't had those goosebumps since Amy Winehouse.

[@TamarChante]

Incredible!! Wow!

[@b.e.withart9700]

So refreshingly new!!! Love these syncopations… not sure that is the name of these off beat rhythms. Very very attractive.

[@marcusmifflin6941]

😢 Beautiful, real, raw, simply Amazing!

[@melizmatea]

She's incredible. She really is. One of a kind talent.

[@walkersonn]

most underrated artist out there

[@LinMonash]

QUEEN RAYE from the UK! Just Màgnifique!!! ❤🎉

[@hiplessboy]

what a wonderful shapeshifter of a song

[@smoyejx]

This was really dope. Fantastic performance.

[@ose5226]

This was an amazing live performance. I shouldn't have expected different from RAYE but when i heard the song i had trouble envisioning it sung live. So this is pleasantly surprising. Thank you!

[@mihaipop9771]

An absolute WOW!!!!! The entire performance experience is absolutely extraordinary! Well done to all and especially Raye.

[@LAVISHING]

Love that you and your band are able to do Genesis on The Daily Show!

[@holsgr]

omfg what a piece of artist she is!!!! such a truly emotional experience... the lyrics, the music! wow just amazing. she nees to release her second album soon it will be a masterpiece like back to black was for amy too. i'm sure of that.

[@deadlightlabyrinth]

What a voice, what an elevated level of talent... Stunning. ❤

[@Chief]

Since she's been on tour so much she just keeps getting better and better, wow

[@hopeenigma5167]

Her voice🥰🥰🥰

[@moto50forReal]

yep just Wow !

[@pete27654]

What a great performance, though I'm a little disappointed she didn't get to the 'Light' segment of the song... Could have dropped a verse from somewhere else? I love that final transition on the record. If you've not heard it go check it out

[@stephaneyighodalo7949]

Exxxaaccttllyyyyyyy..... I was really waiting for the last part 😪

[@bennyhanaaa]

She will ALWAYS be vital ✨

[@RyanSoto-mr2ls]

Yo she could both be a James Bond actress and the main soundtrack for the next James Bond movie. Truly talented and gorgeous, reminds me of Amy Winehouse with such a powerful voice. Awesome and unique.

[@chosenmjroyalty4917]

Preach Girl. Wow, Amazing. Thanks DS. ❤️ I will look her up for other music.

[@SpunkyMike]

Please do!! She is one of the best artists out there. Real unapologetically herself and she sings about truths and maybe start by listening to the original genesis and then her album BUT check out her live performances. You will become an instant fan!!!!

[@l.bricio]

Masterpiece

[@Sophielinda]

What a performance!

[@ingridfrater1233]

I have never heard of this singer before, but she is wonderful!!❤❤😊

[@dropclutch1]

This is amazing. So relevant for today. This will resonate with a lot of people and she will be an iconic star.

[@victoriafrega7974]

Oh yassssss ❤️👑 I adore this record ❤️👑

[@caterinatitus1991]

Raye sings to our souls, love her.

[@haeleysundin386]

PLEASE WATCH THE MUSIC VIDEO it is pure art. The full song is exactly 7 minutes long- for the first 7 verses of the book of Genesis

[@AnastasiaChima]

Wouldn’t have guessed that

[@TheOdelld]

Amazing

[@yadidagaba5428]

This gave me chills.

[@albasoes20]

I’m obsessed with this song. Hear it all the time

[@erichalvor516]

Bravo Bravo!

[@carolinewalker9340]

If Amy Winehouse and Adele had a baby. Wow😮🥰

[@detandenfee]

And Lily Allen being their surrogate

[@DrT0705]

That's exactly how I described her earlier this year! She performed at a New Year's TV event on the BBC, and even though I was half awake and not entirely sober, I recognised her talent and made the same comparison you did 😊

[@eim1218]

Tiny little sprinkle of Immortal Tech towards the end there 🤙🏽

[@danfrancca]

This is royalty 🙏🏻

[@katelynfe]

So happy shes hopefully getting traction in the states

[@dreamxcyrus23]

Queen ❤

[@Paintslashgaming]

Raye i have been following you forever - i'm so proud of you and love seeing you shine!! Thank you for this incredible live performance

[@jessiecoghlan7010]

True original, UK representing braaap braaap! ❤

[@EllieAngharad91]

How her album wasn't nominated for a Grammy is incomprehensible.

[@teej-h7w]

WOW!

[@ymptiness7209]

i am obsessed with this version well done Raye and team

[@lennnpg]

my queennnn miss u so much

[@luisbarbosa1]

Amazing ! Sadly this one of the most underrated voice and song :)

[@DADDYCHAD-v5d]

You never really see performances that are long like this ESPECIALLY on an American talk show... They usually edit it and make it shorter but it's great that they don't censor anything for once. You CANNOT censor art! That's right👏🏻

[@dxdtee]

amazing. such a perfect performance. love seeing all the live musicians ❤️‍🔥

[@RyanSoto-mr2ls]

Her voice is amazing.

[@bababooey_ok]

we love raye 🤍🤍

[@SirAdamMeek]

Sick!

[@somecallmebri]

Wait what I had no idea musical artists perform on the Daily Show; a crossover I never expected lol!

[@danielmardeni4003]

Génesis Part 1 and 2 ❤ RAYE is a Queen 👑

[@hectormolina8947]

Raye is the beeeeeest ❤❤❤
