RAYE has made shocking announcement about her concept album, THIS MUSIC MAY CONTAIN HOPE, which is set to be released in March.
As per the latest report of Line of Best Fit, the songbird has confirmed details of her follow-up to her album, My 21st Century Blues.
Reflecting on the intention behind her new body of work, RAYE described music as a source of healing.
“Music is medicine, I’ve always said that,” she shared, opening up about the emotional core of the project.
Elaborating further, the artist explained that the album was born out of a deeply personal need for comfort and restoration, both for herself and for listeners who may be struggling.
“I guess I’m in the process of making medicine for myself that I can share with the world. I wanted to create something that is a hug, bed or soft place for that person who needs it.”
Elsewhere, RAYE has also spoken candidly about her recent collaboration with producer Mark Ronson.
In a previous conversation with PEOPLE Magazine, she admitted that working so freely alongside him required vulnerability and trust.
“It's quite a tough thing to even allow myself to create so freely with him. But I really just wanted to be like, 'Do you know what? I just need to forget what anyone else is gonna say about this.'”
Expressing her long-standing admiration for Ronson, the singer added, “I absolutely love this producer. I've always wanted to work with this producer since I was a little girl.”
