Cotton Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 I hope she gets the #1 but I think even if it doesn’t happen this week she can eventually get it. This album is EVERYTHING. It’s all I’ve been listening to and Oscar Winning Dreams and Worth It have grown on me even more. Such a great album I hope she really extends the legs this era could have and releases more singles. Although there were singles released before, Escapism basically kickstarted the era so it would be nice if she did at least two/three more singles

She could hustle her way to the #1 with a digital deluxe, restocking signed copies and adding an amazon discount for the album I guess. https://www.banquetrecords.com/raye/my-21st-century-blues-[personally-signed]/M21CB22PS Well...
theweekend Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 black mascara is one of the songs of the year. this is HEAVEN.

Although there were singles released before, Escapism basically kickstarted the era so it would be nice if she did at least two/three more singles she still can re-release both black mascara and hard out here. those two are even stronger than escapism and they're still unknown to the GP. flip a switch and five star hotels must be the next singles if she's not bringing those other two songs back. I know the whole album will grow on me. anyway she's serving the best from the ones that has already hit, your honor!!!
Sky Engineer Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 I love Ellie too but she was right to move higher than heaven
Digitalism Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 Listening to this. And a lot of the albums feels outdated Songs like Black Mascara and Escapism are amazing and boundary pushing But most of the rest sounds like a bunch of Duffy songs from 2008
SevenFootSounds Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 As expected this is really growing on me. Loving Oscar Winning Tears and Ice Cream Man.

Solgayleo Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 (edited) This is such a solid debut album. Feels very unique to her, and the production is incredible. Flip a Switch needs to be a single. Worth It also feels like it’s got tiktok virality potential Edited February 7, 2023 by Solgayleo
perpetual novice Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 I wish she could give Hard Out Here another push. Huge hit single that got away, especially with that video.
theweekend Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 Flip a switch on a prick and I'm A very sound ***** till' you cross the line Black heels, black shades, that my energy Tell him I'm dead if he calling me this is quite iconic tbh she snapped hard here

jjmed59 Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 cant stop listening to this entire album back and forth im SO happy…. each song offers something to appreciate even if it may not be what I usually dig.
sweetkiss Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 I finally heard the album, O M g THIS IS ALBUM OF THE YEAR SO FAAR such a strong record OMG, every single song is A SMASHA and at the same time saying something. wtf i love how versatile she is, not just with genre but the way she sings. OMG RAYE its so hard to name favorite songs but ill try 1. Environmental Anxiety 2. Flip A Switch 3. The Thrill is gone MY TOP3 but they are all worth listening and paying mad attention to.
humbz Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 interesting album. some great songs, others a bit lost in the mix. it definitely demands more than a few spins tho.
The Slayer Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 (edited) OMG SO I JUST MET HER!!! She is one of the nicest people EVERRRRR! She is so insanely sweet and took her time with everybody. I got lots of hugs, laughs and it was just so nice, such a great experience. Also, oh my god, I didn't realise just how incredible live she is?! Just wowwww. She only performed four songs but they were great, Ice Cream Man in particular was very emotional. She performed: Thrill Is Gone. Oscar Winning Tears. Ice Cream Man. Escapism. I love my photos with her and my signed vinyl addressed to me! Edited February 7, 2023 by The Slayer
