June 26, 2024 – At 26 years old, singer-songwriter RAYE made history at the 2024 BRIT Awards when she won a record-breaking six trophies in one night, including Song of the Year for “Escapism.” “I started crying from the first award, and my mom is like, ‘Get it together.’ Just 18 months earlier, RAYE was performing in small clubs, and her record label had shelved her debut album.
“To hear that is really crushing,” she said.
Feeling lost and ashamed of her music, she found inspiration in a Nina Simone quote in her bedroom: “An artist’s duty is to reflect their times.”
“I’m thinking in my head, what am I doing? I’m just ashamed of everything I put my name too musically, which is a really difficult feeling to process as an artist,” said RAYE.
