They did WHAT to RAYE | My 21st Century Blues - Reaction

[@KioshiWarrior]

BROOOOOO NOT US DROPPING THE SAME REACTION ON THE SAME DAY 😭😭😭😭😭😭 my KZbin version is going up tomorrow but the Patreon one is going up as soon as I get home cause SHE ATE THIS. From top to bottom, I live for her!!!!

[@MichaelBeveraggi]

WHAT I LOVE THIS TIMING MAYA I NEED TO SEE YOURS SOOOO BAD IM WAITING ON THAT

[@rjs2035]

OMG I LOVE YOU TWO INTERACTING 😭🫶🏽 YOU BOTH ARE SO AMAZING!!

[@marktodd7397]

Rayes live performance at the Brits was the best ive ever seen absolutely unbelievable, react to it as its on youtube. She is styles on top of styles. Phenomenal artist.

[@realkidmusic]

this album is a masterpiece, literally no skips

[@glammoerous]

I watched a few of her interviewes recently and she said about 60% of the album was written over the past 7 years. Alot of the songs were supposed to be apart of the albums her record label never released. Her original contract was for 4 albums and she sadly never relased any albums. I can only image how much material and songs she is sitting on. I cant wait for her to get the recognition she deserves. ! Also the little girl on the album is her little sister.

[@evan.c1219]

Escapaism was really big on tiktok and the charts especially in Europe

[@Hannah_DoubleYou]

I'd love to see your reaction to either her Albert Hall performance of Oscar Winning Tears, or her BRITS medley

[@alex.garces]

37:50 you be bopping through that pain lmao, this is brave of her to share with us, she deserves a grammy for this debut album.

[@coljay-ir6os]

Faxxx!!!!

[@Inregaurds]

The way the beat shifts in "Hard Out Here" moves my entire body and soul

[@evan.c1219]

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. 🤪💅

Thank you angel!

,thank you

[@giannaminocha]

OH MY GOD. ONE OF MY FAVORITE ALBUMS OF ALL TIME i love raye so much 😭😭 i’m so so SO happy you reacted to this

[@rjs2035]

Not me commenting this almost word for word before seeing your comment 😂 God I love our RAYE fanbase 🫶🏽

[@seungtakho]

Raye wrote If I Get My Way and Told You So for Little Mix !! so definitely bangers!!

[@bluemoon7785]

OMG

[@ogkpopper]

Didn't know that 😮

[@geszek]

Raye is so talented and underrated and putting this album out cost her a lot, and you can hear the pain, the hurt and the tears in this absolutely amazing body of work. Love her ❤

[@Hayless24]

Ice cream man had me BALLING my eyes out. What a WOMAN ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@rjs2035]

“I feel like I shouldn’t have been able to go anywhere without hearing that song” My question us how DIDNT you hear “Escapism” everywhere you went?? That song blew up, and when I say blew up, I mean BLEW UPPPP 🔥

[@miru6005]

For Little Mix she wrote Told You So (LM5) and If I Get My Way (Glory Days) 💖

[@xapokalypse]

Omg so glad that you reacted to this. Also found out about her this year and been absolutely obsessed with her songs

[@melroseface1819]

Omg couldn’t be happier you reacted to this! I haven’t even gotten past the first min and already liked the video 😂

[@alex.garces]

I'VE BEEN REQUESTING THIS SINCE I'VE FOUND YOUR CHANNEL AND IT'S HERE FINALLY!! THANK YOUU!

[@helenstewart9408]

Thank you for this wonderful reaction to her amazing work. Now she's an independent artist, she's soaring, but she's earned it hard. I'm in the UK and didn't even know she had released this until I came across Escapism on KZbin then it sent me Ice Cream Man, for which I was not fully prepared. RAYE's Zach Sang interview is funny and honest; apparently she's touring with a full band despite punishing costs.

[@itsfaith1403]

Black Mascara is about someone she trusted & loved slipping something into her drink that ended up getting her addicted … also if u didn’t know Mandy is the powder version of crystal meth… 070 shake was the slow part of Escapism when she was saying out of reach out of touch too numb I don’t feel no way (that section)… Mauritius is a country in East Africa… also wanted to point out that in Hard Out Here she said u wasn’t trying u was sitting on diamonds 💎 (this album)

[@6874Nic]

Hey I think Mandy is MDMA (ecstasy) not crystal meth. Maybe it covers a few things depending where u are I’m UK and I’ve only ever know it refer to mdma

[@itsfaith1403]

@@6874Nic I looked it up it refers to both I think in the context of the song tho that u are right

[@deanwright350]

I saw her in Dublin, such a beautiful voice, beautiful band, amazing stage presence. Got me ugly crying to ice cream man and on my friends shoulders to the bops

[@alex.garces]

I NEED AN UNCUT VERSION OF THIS REACTION! You were really into the album, felt every feels Raye put out to this and it just brings me joy seeing people enjoying her music. I've been looking forward to this so thank youuu!

[@varqmiz]

She wrote and co-produced all this album. Crazy talent.

[@bookwhispers9791]

Such a nice reaction! love your analysis on this!! So happy that you reacted to her

[@21stcenturyblues]

I just wanted to say I loved this reaction video. Raye is BRILLIANT and I've seen more than a few reaction videos of her music, but watching yours was honestly such a pleasure. So, thanks. That's all I wanted to say!

[@reevancarey]

Black Mascara is THE BEST song in that album! The way it started, the minimal lyrics, her cadence, that dope as*beat with that stutter pattern! Urrrghhh! I'm obsessed with that song!

[@thesa7850]

So happy for Raye and love this album. The reason this is her debut album is because of horrible mistreatment from her old label and I’m so proud she’s finally being heard!!!

[@hymn3539]

I heard you mention Raye on your K-12 reaction, and I was like, “No way!!” I adore Raye and I’m so happy you did this

[@claudiasavino8338]

This is mi AOTY, no skips, live instruments, innovative, talented, vocals, she SERVED. Thanks for the reaction

[@applejuice6383]

I’m so excited for this!! I’ve been waiting to see if you’d react to Raye! I’ve had her album on repeat since the day it dropped haha, she’s so amazing at what she does. Also a whole hour?? This is amazing.

[@melroseface1819]

Her pen is on 10000000 …. I knew you’d love her ❤

[@RissaRosey]

ice cream man hits me different as a survivor- she's a beautiful artist. I love her very much

[@jaevhi]

YESSS I've been waiting on this reaction!

[@barrieflix]

Best album I've heard this year - this decade - this century. Wow!

[@lauraalvarez5895]

This has to be the best album of the year ❤

[@pazidawson2178]

I just started the video and i absolutely love the intro, it's amazing

[@heraruiha8076]

So happy you reacted to this album! AOTY in my opinion 💁‍♀️ If she doesn't get a grammy nom for best new artist I'm gonna be pissed.

[@charissa2311]

Screaming!!! I’m so glad you listened and loved it. Flip a Switch and Ice Cream Man are 2 of my favs. Obsessed with this album and her past music and her. She deserves all the success. You should watch her switch things up on live performances! The talent is amazing.

[@coljay-ir6os]

Holy shit I'M SO HAPPY YOU REACTED TO RAYE!!!! She deserves to be heard and appreciated soooo much.

[@maumau921410]

I've watched this more than once and enjoy it every time. My favorite album of the year still and I'll be seeing her in concert tonight!

[@iagooliveira3045]

when i listened to this album for the first i also cried at fin as well and sometimes i still do, don't know why but it's such a beautiful and simple way to end this masterpiece

[@MimiLingo]

Perrie has been in the studio with Raye. She put stuff on installed of her giving Raye a cake when she got no 1 for escapism

[@RissaRosey]

Also agreed on the Worth It song, gave me American Boy by Estelle vibes and I love it so much

[@sabinajoh]

I love how you also analyze the lyrics

Album of the year for me!

[@loganayegee]

Love love love this album...great from start to finish...love ur reaction too and fin really gets me too. And yes im from Mauritius!!...it exists...a lot of celebs visit our island and it's funny how everyone knows about the Dodos and them being extinct but do not know they were actually found in Mauritius ONLY lol 😅

[@JillianJr]

Such a good reaction to this album! ❤

[@samanthafischer3536]

if you are interested in reacting, 070 shake has an awesome discography!! she actually does sing in escapism towards the end and i think the “doctor doctor” is her. but her albums are really creative and beautiful!

[@indreduobaite13]

No, the doctor doctor is definitely sung by Raye. She even mentioned somewhere in an interview where she got asked why she doesn't sing in an American accent that some words like doctor just sound better in her native accent

[@jenObu1]

Review Oscar winning tears , royal Albert hall pls

[@emilyclubb9214]

Oh he GETS it gets it

[@nataliagalvez760]

Amazing reaction and analysis of lyrics and melodies. Check out her acoustic stuff from her previous EP and singles. I recommend secrets acoustic version where she sings in her garden when pandemic hit us. Also Natalie don't acoustic version with just her and a piano. She can turn any EMD track into a soulful jam, shes brilliant

[@randomguy435]

her song genesis is out now you should take a listen to that. the music video is fire btw

[@hahah7556]

raye has worked with every girl so far for there solo projects in little mix including leigh many times so we will be getting v good tracks

[@ScryleHunter]

[@neontyler6663]

Escapism was on Top 1 UK charts for so many months. Also its everywhere ❤ Also the Song of the year for sure

[@aishahoumadi9392]

I been waiting for this one turn it up!

[@lifeisbutadreamm]

It took me until escapism to realize you're the same guy I watched listen to olivia rodrigo's debut album lol, idk if the haircut or ball cap or what but you look different, not in a bad way but just different lol, also I'm def a fan of Raye after hearing some of her stuff, such a skilled and talented artist ❤

[@Itszahia]

Flip a switch is my favorite

[@sdw8680]

Zayn is a fan of hers and was at her concert a month ago. Collab would be great.

[@2000halfpint]

Watching this after escapism won song of the year at the brits… 29:39

[@santipapa6986]

I think the tiny violin is a reference to sponge Bob no? When mr.crabs has a tiny violin he plays with one claw

[@rochelle1199]

It’s actually a very British phrase used to emphasise lack of sympathy 😂 It’s meant to be sarcastic
