Raye – “Tell Me” (Prod. Blood Diamonds)
Raye aka Rachel Keen is a 17-year-old singer from South London (Croydon) who has been writing songs since she was 10 and cites old-school jazz and soul influences like Nina Simone, Ella Fitzgerald, and Nat King Cole. She recently had a session with Los Angeles producer Blood Diamonds and “Tell Me” was the result. It’s a gauzy track full of demand and lust that balances Raye’s soulful, bluesy vocals and whirring, cloudy electronic production. Listen below.
