The star, whose debut album was held in limbo for years, explains how she escaped her darkest days.
But Raye got the last laugh.
Several of the songs pre-date her escape from major label purgatory, but nothing remains in its original form. Black Mascara is a real-life account of having her drink spiked "by someone I really trusted". On Body Dysmorphia, she sings about being so unhappy with her appearance that she wanted "to cut pieces off" her face. Hard Out Here is a scathing takedown of music industry misogyny.," Raye spits over a rock-hard hip-hop beat."Yeah, they did. They did. And I was sure they would," she says.
She'd grown up attending a church in Croydon, where her father was the musical director and her mother sang in the choir. Nowadays, she has a more private relationship with religion, hosting Sunday hymn services at home with her friends. But the process has been crucial to her wellbeing."There's a lot of demons trying to claw at you and drag you to somewhere you don't belong, so I'm really grateful I have this faith. It's honestly pulled me out of a really dark place.
