This album still blows me away. I get so teary eyed seeing all the success she is getting. She's such an incredible person and deserves everything she is getting now.

I sobbed when I first heard "Fin" when I listened to the whole album, it wasn't just you that it made emotional 😂 Thank you for finally reacting to the album, Raye is a blessing! She performs a few of the album songs on Tiny Desk, would definitely recommend you check that out
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE react to the live album - My 21st Century Symphony live at Royal Albert Hall, it’s life changing. If you can watch the BBC recording even better
A few more things you’ll love in order of priority ✨ Raye AMA’s performance, full Royal Albert Hall show (bbc iPlayer), Black Mascara (Live Radio 1 Lounge) Cry Me A River (Kennedy Center Honours)
This video once again shows what a beautiful soul you are. You make my day with your sweet and kind reactions, and btw I love your voice and your dancing moves bro 😊. Been following you for some weeks now and will continue to do so. People like you make this world a little less scary and a lot brighter, so please continue shining! Sending you all my love and support all the from Madrid ❤
This album holds so much talent, so much passion, so much hard work and so much love. I admire RAYE so fucking much and I'm so excited as a listener for what she's got in store. I really enjoyed your reaction, great video 👏
Raye is amazing! So glad you have finally gotten to her latest project!! Next id love to see you react to Doechii! alligator bites never heal mixtape is freakin iconic and she is really blowing up right now. 🐊🐊
You ABSOLUTELY need to see/hear the Royal Albert Hall performance! Video-wise the whole thing is available in the U.K. but I think Oscar Winning Tears is the only one available in other territories. The audio of the whole album is though. I highly recommend her videos for the singles too, Oscar Winning Tears will break you and Escapism is amazingly put together.
“Hard Out Here” was her debut song as an independent artist after years of being trapped by those “White Men CEOs”. So those lyrics really set the tone of how she is as an artist now. 💯
just subscribed after the Brat/Raye reactions. Love that you're giving respect to our British queens. They're wildly different artists in style but both of these ladies have a perfect time and place depending on your mood. Hope you have a great 2025 and see continued success.
LOVE your review. I came across you review as I browse RUclips…….Outstanding, I had to hit that subscribe button. Your very observant, perceptive and you views, opinions, mannerisms, values are genuine and that of a good person. You mentioned your mom, she clearly done a FANTASTIC job. Much love and thanks coming to you from the UK.
She's got the entire Royal Albert Hall live concert album on Spotify and I listen to it in full probably 2 or 3 times a week. If you love the Thrill is Gone, you gotta hear it live on that album. It's next level with the full orchestra and choir.
I watch a lot of your videos and this is my first comment to you because you are the first man I’ve seen acknowledge the uncomfortable truths to be had about the harassment women face DAILY, particularly from men. You’re also always a vibe and as a southern African I love your Tyla content. 😊
When this showed up my only reaction was “final fucking ly” Long awaited and I can’t believe RUclips took 3 days to show me this but we’re here and you didn’t disappoint. Raye is a musical genius, she does everything and you never know what to expect when she’s on a track. Her music is so relatable you can tell it comes from her own pen. Doesn’t hurt that she’s STUNNING live and will give you about 100 different arrangements of the same song. Her creativity is unmatched and I wish her nothing but the freaking best she deserves it all!! Her and Chappell roan’s album were the most the refreshing things I’ve listened to last year. 10’s all round. Edit: I feel like I needed to give you some privacy while you were listening to the thrill is gone 😭. Also for ice cream man normally I don’t like commentary when listening to that song because I feel like Raye just said what needed to be said and that’s her truth played out in a masterful way that just relates to women but It was so refreshing to hear you talk about your mom and her situations with men because a lot of other men like to pretend women are making up these instances and no one really speaks up about it but other women. So thank you for sharing that and from what I can see your mom did a damn good despite it all 😊
Love this entire reaction❤❤ after live at royal albert hall i think you should react to her 9 track EP “Euphoric Sad Songs” and how she grew from that sound.

She’s one of the very few singers better live.
Escapism is my jam!!!
Lmao I always thought it was a dog barking in Five Star Hotels too, but listening now I think it might be record scratches
