About RAYE

RAYE, whose real name is Rachel Agatha Keen, was born in London in 1997. Influenced by her Ghanaian-Swiss heritage and a family passionate about music, she started writing songs early on. She attended the BRIT School, known for nurturing talents like Adele and Amy Winehouse, but left before completing her studies to pursue music independently. RAYE quickly gained recognition for her songwriting, collaborating with artists such as Jonas Blue on “By Your Side,” Jax Jones on “You Don’t Know Me,” and David Guetta on “Stay (Don’t Go Away).”

Her career took a significant turn in 2021 when she publicly addressed her struggles with her former record label, which had prevented her from releasing her own album despite her successes. This transparency helped her gain respect and support from fans and fellow musicians alike.

In 2023, RAYE released her debut album, My 21st Century Blues, marking a pivotal moment in her career where she showcased her artistic freedom. The album blends R&B, soul, jazz, and pop while tackling deep themes like addiction and self-worth. Tracks like “Escapism,” featuring 070 Shake, became major hits, with “Escapism” even reaching number one in the UK. Other popular songs include “Prada” with Casso and D-Block Europe and “Bed” with Joel Corry and David Guetta.

Following her album release, RAYE embarked on The My 21st Century Blues Tour, performing across Europe, North America, and Australia to enthusiastic crowds. Her live shows are known for their emotional depth and powerful vocals, often incorporating orchestral elements and personal storytelling. She has also graced major festival stages, including Glastonbury and Coachella, and achieved a remarkable performance at London’s Royal Albert Hall in 2024.

In 2024, RAYE made headlines at the BRIT Awards by winning six awards in one night, including Album of the Year and Artist of the Year. She has been celebrated for her songwriting and unique voice in British music, with outlets calling her a “generational talent.”

Beyond her chart success, RAYE represents artistic freedom and resilience. Her ability to blend genres and express vulnerability through powerful storytelling distinguishes her as an essential figure in contemporary music.
