I'm happy for her, but really wish this had been 'Black Mascara' instead.

'Escapism.' doesn't really sound much like a hit to me tbh (certainly less so than 'Black Mascara.') but I do like it quite a bit so happy to see it! Great for RAYE to be onto another hit after her label troubles and a much deserved breakthrough for 070 Shake who really deserves to be huge.

The hook keeps reminding me of Red Hot Chili Peppers' 'Under The Bridge' though *_*

Not as keen on 'The Thrill Is Gone.' but otherwise really enjoying this era so far.

It warms my heart to see how humble and genuinely grateful she is. One of the absolute best in the industry right now and I think she could pave the way for other British artists hopefully - Bree Runway next please!

It has taken Raye a lengthy time to achieve mainstream attention.

It's so exciting to see people like Raye get a hit, especially when you think they're just going to get v limited success.

I mean this could of course just be a one off but it'll surely help her album and future singles too.

Love her. Love most her song. But this is truly shocking song.

I suppose there had to be one - what don't you like about it?

Can't believe this is no #1 on Apple Music this morning.

So deserved!

If it wasn't for Lewis, I think it could've got to #1 next week! I mean it could still do, but I think Lewis' team will pull out all the stops to get it.

This is a really good performance! I think I actually prefer it to the studio version on account of the vocal sounding more natural/less processed. I didn't actually know she was this good live!

I love Escapism! I love how the melody switches up to match the storytelling. I laughed when someone posted a clip of her live performance on TikTok and people asked "is she out of tune?" but no, it was because they were too used to hearing the sped-up version hithead.gif
