RAYE: Music That Moves Me

RAYE: Music That Moves Me

London singer-songwriter RAYE shares music that inspires her art and gets her pumped up to perform. From a timeless Destiny’s Child’s anthem (“Independent Women, Pt.1”) to a highlight from Rihanna’s dark-hued Rated R era (“Hard”), these handpicked hits also reflect the defiant energy of her independently released debut, My 21st Century Blues. There’s a couple of tracks here (“Black Mascara.” and “Escapism.” with 070 Shake) from the 2023 album partly written and recorded in a Utah log cabin, a rousing injection of soul from Nina Simone, plus a sweep across UK rap with high-energy hits from Skepta, Stormzy and Little Simz, as well as a D-Block Europe dance remix. “You deserve the positive energy, joy and happiness that this playlist provides!” RAYE tells Apple Music about her exclusive selection for Music That Moves Me. “Moving is all about doing it for you, not anyone else.”
