It feels so good to see people appreciating Buss It Down. So many people who've reacted have read the title at face value and thought it was a random slow song with a weird title about twerking and grinding rather than understanding that as a finale song, she's finally at a point where she's saying "the person I end up with is going to love me for who I am, flaws and all, so when that happens, imma buss it down for them and only them ("I'm just trying to prioritize who I grind for..."). Whenever I listen to it, I think of it as a sequel to Body Dysmorphia where she's finally found someone who loves the things she hated about herself and has finally found a happy ending (or at least is content with the fact that she will have one even if she hasn't found it yet). You guys have the best reactions because you actually read the lyrics as you listen to the songs and try to interpret them. That's amazing!
This is interesting because i'm not a native speaker so when I listen to songs the first thing i get is the production . So when i finally get to buss it down when I first listened to the album I felt it like a redemption song. Then i checked out the lyrics I laughed, and I found this song very provocative as if Raye wanted to tell us after everything i went through, go f*** yourself until I find the good one ! 😅 This my time now!
Please react to the live performance of Oscar winning tears at the royal Albert hall as she holds a very long not. You guys will be blown away literally!!!

@@joel-ho9vl not necessarily Molly I believe that’s something different it’s a bean not molly Molly is a mix of different uppers & is closer to acid or lsd where as ecstasy pills are just the one drug
@@itsfaith1403 molly used to just be mdma - and ecastacy is the mdma cut with uppers or something. At least that's how it was in the early two thousands through the 20teens in my expierence. Havn't really talked to anyone using regularly since then Fwiw, i have noticed nick name switches with other drugs in the past. Dope has had a few different definitions. There was also a time when dank green was bad and cheap then it became a word that meant really high thc. I never knew it was mandy in the uk. Lowkey makes more sense than molly, imo. Seems to me everething gets sold as everything else anymore - like that pink coco cane that used to be an expensive chemical and now its just a random slurry of whatever drugs mixed up and dyed pink.
@ I haven’t used in years since they started flooding the streets with fentanyl I stopped trusting it & even when I was using beans it was never a regular thing I would just take a a few when I had a lot of things to get done in a short amount of time I was never addicted I just preferred them over Red Bull or energy drinks because they worked better & now I only partake in weed & shrooms I just know a lot of people who do & I’ve only really used beans which is not the same as Molly & fyi if you’re going to assume someone uses regularly just ask because you basically just called me a druggie which isn’t kool just because I have knowledge about it doesn’t mean I use it 🤷🏾♀️
Ever since I discovered raye and this album came out It has been so important and one of the best albums of the fucking YEARR! So glad yall reacted to itt
True, please do an album review for "My 21st Century Symphony" - the studio album is great already, the live puts it to the next level: Totally epic instant classic performance...
PLEASEEEE do the live version of this album at Royal Albert Hall with The Heritage Orchestra. It's this album on CRACK. Literally downloaded the entire live album immediately, it is an experience.
"You made me frame myself for your sins" hit my so hard on my first listen. i paused and sobbed over this sentence that says so much in the simplest of terms. I never thought of it that way but shes right. the self persecution is so hard. the what if.. the should have... could have... every day as the thoughts cycle. My inner child needs love not to be punished for someone elses choices.
Yall have got to react to the live version of this album man. It is SOOOOOO Good!!!! it’s literally an elevated version of the studio album. PLEASE REACT TO IT I BEG 😭❤
Oh you two had me creasing up. Laughed so hard at some of your reactions. The love version is even better if you can believe it. Saw her live at the O2 in London with orchestra and choir. It was epic.
Great reaction guys, you knew when to be quiet and when to let it flow whilst actually reacting and being entertaining and funny. Definitely the Best album I've heard in years production is phenomenal.
@@mirasmandolin yess, the first time I saw her live was when she was an opener for Kali Uchis' tour, and then I saw her when she went on tour. I was right in the front. Very intimate and amazing show!!
So for context about Black Mascara it’s about a man she trusted who slipped something into her drink that got her addicted… that leads to when she said I forgot which song but she said stains under my eyes (Mascara is black & when you cry it leaves stains)… hard out here mentioned drugged drinks which she explains in Black Mascara… the repetition of you’re done to me on a house beat paints a picture of her being high on whatever was slipped into her drink causing her to be in a trance & it also will never leave her head because she was drugged that’s why she’s trying to get him to understand she trusted him & now you betrayed me in a club so I wouldn’t be aware of what you were doing but after she sobered up she realized what happened now she’s running to her mom’s arms to get away from him… definitely should do the video it will explain it better than I did in a visual way & that video is connected to the Escapism video in Escapism you see her running away from someone crying at the beginning of the video with Mascara running down her face
I found your channel through Raye.❤ I subscribed because I loved your reactions to her. Could you please react to Raye rapping in this song: Da Beatfreakz x RAYE x Russ Millions x wewantwraiths - Money Calling ❤
I bet your Raye’s ex lable won’t make the mistake again (probably can’t even sleep at night seeing her now😭) they were indeed sleeping on a one of a kind diamond
So mandy is "molly/ escasy" all of these names in Mary Jane are drugs " Mary Jane being marijuana dont know what type of drug codeine is. The beginning of ice cream man also reminds me of the beeping sound they use in recording studios for timing
Amazing review!!! Loved every second! Shes increíble! And yes you have to do a reaction to the live album! I actually just listen to that now its that good 🎉
You HAVE to react to the Oscar winning tears performance at the royal Albert hall. It is beyond amazing. Seeing your reaction to the album version you will not be disappointed!! There is a live version of her Album 21st century blues, she performed the whole thing at the royal Albert hall. So glad you reacted to this. Rayes album is just next level.
Been waiting for this reaction you guys should definitely react to her live performance of Oscar winning tears and The thrill is Gone she’s incredible 🤎
31:52 idk if anyone notice that but when she says “round and round in my head” you can hear the music moving from the left headphone to the right , i think its called “panning” i liked that detail
What an album. Some of the subject matters are heavy, so the beat kind of balance it out. I really enjoyed this album, and I root for her heavily. The industry is sick, and so is society. Songs like Ice Cream Man & Environmental Anxiety are strong messages that needs attention and addressing. I wish her God protection, strength, healing and blessing.
Now you have to do the live version of the album 🔥🔥🔥 take the studio version & multiply it by 100 & that’s what the live version is 💕💕💕 I absolutely adore this album it’s hard to listen to Ice Cream Man for me tho because I relate so much to it because I went thru it & am still going thru it but it’s still a bop I have to say my favorite is Buss it Down tho 🔥🔥🔥 closely followed by Worth it & Oscar Winning Tears but there’s no skips for me I’m so glad you enjoyed it I knew you would
If you really wanna dive into who RAYE is, the live version of this album that she performed at Royal Albert Hall is absolutely bonkers level good. I'd love to watch you guys get into it, music videos for some of the songs have been uploaded to RUclips!

She’s also an extremely talented performer
Please react to the live performance of Oscar winning tears at the royal Albert hall as she holds a very long not. You guys will be blown away literally!!!
I'd suggest her brits medley performance too. Both great ofc but whew, that medley was insane and also had a long high note

Mandy is another name for Ecstasy/MDMA which was a popular drug for people going out clubbing.
Riiight and more commonly called Molly in USA

Yessss
I’m sooo glad yall finally reacted to this album!! 10/10 no doubt!!
Environmental Anxiety's instrumental was supposed to be super chaotic to make the listener feel anxious!
I lovely the irony of Black Mascara. This is the style of music the label had her constantly making and wouldn’t let her branch out
But strangely its its better than any of those... it became a slow burn for me, I didn't love it at first, now i love it
You Gotta check out her Oscar Winning Tears performance at the Royal Albert Hall !!! Very crucial lol
PLEASEEEE do the live version of this album at Royal Albert Hall with The Heritage Orchestra. It's this album on CRACK. Literally downloaded the entire live album immediately, it is an experience.

We’ve been waiting for this 🔥🔥🔥👏🏾
Never clicked on a notification so fast
When he said his ice cream man fact I was like nooooooo
"Mandy" is a UK slang term for MDMA, also known as ecstasy or XTC.
“She’s buss it down in blues style”
😭😭😭
I saw raye perform twice so far and she’s amazingggg. If anyone has a chance to go to her shows, do it!
did u see her live like in person?! if so i am SO jealous lmfao i love her
@@mirasmandolin yess, the first time I saw her live was when she was an opener for Kali Uchis' tour, and then I saw her when she went on tour. I was right in the front. Very intimate and amazing show!!
OMGGGGGGGG THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH FOR REACTING TO THIS IM GONNNNNNNNNNNA CRYYYYYYYY
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE
YESSS ITS FINALLY HEREEEE!!! Time for them to hear the best song ever created ( Worth it )

Also you correct about ice cream man she’s talking about how a producer “assaulted” her and it wasn’t her first experience
Finally man! I've been waiting for this reaction for months, I knew you guys were gonna love this album.
Thanks for the reaction guys ♥️

Praying for you 💜
@@ZMOOVEY thank you 😊
I found your channel through Raye.❤
I subscribed because I loved your reactions to her.
Could you please react to Raye rapping in this song:
Da Beatfreakz x RAYE x Russ Millions x wewantwraiths - Money Calling ❤
She stole the spotlight in this one with her rapping!!!! 👑
she is saying that her saying nothing about her trauma proves that she is a woman
I bet your Raye’s ex lable won’t make the mistake again (probably can’t even sleep at night seeing her now😭) they were indeed sleeping on a one of a kind diamond
Black Mascara's music video is beautiful too 😍
I’ve seen her in concert in ATL. She was amazing 😭
Raye is the artists of our lives hands down 👏🏽 please react to Raye Genesis music video that recently dropped
So mandy is "molly/ escasy" all of these names in Mary Jane are drugs " Mary Jane being marijuana dont know what type of drug codeine is. The beginning of ice cream man also reminds me of the beeping sound they use in recording studios for timing
Mandy is the uk version of Molly loved y’all analogy tho 😂
I was waiting for this reaction! And you guys reacted just like I did when I listened
We asked and they delivered 🙏🏾
WAITING ON THIS FOR SO LONG... TOTALLY WORTH IT BOYS 10/10
