Raye has announced that she will not embark on writing music for her third album, titled "And Then She Fell In Love," until she experiences the joy of falling in love. The "Where Is My Husband" singer, who released her second album "This Music May Contain Hope" on Friday, has revealed that she is fed up with writing songs that focus on the sorrows of dating, heartbreaks, and the wrongs done by men. In a TikTok livestream, which has been shared on social media, she shared her intentions to wait for the right time to create a follow-up album.
"My third album is going to be called 'And Then She Fell In Love,' and I'm not going to write a single song for that album, not one single song, until I fall in love," she declared to her fans. "I'm tired of writing songs like 'I'm single,' 'This guy done me wrong,' 'This sucks about this and that.' The end. No," she added.
She further elaborated on her vision for the upcoming album: "So my next album is going to be called 'And Then She Fell In Love.' I will fall in love, and then I'll write an album where every song will be about love – 'I love love, I'm in love, love forever, she's in love, it's a lovely day to be loved.' I will write that album when I fall in love."
"This Music May Contain Hope" includes songs about dating woes such as "Beware... The South London Lover Boy" and "The WhatsApp Shakespeare," as well as tracks about heartbreak like "Nightingale Lane." The 28-year-old, whose real name is Rachel Keen, has received widespread acclaim for the new release and has been hailed as an early contender for album of the year. It also stormed the Spotify charts, achieving almost 16 million streams within 24 hours.
"This Music May Contain Hope" is the follow-up to Raye's 2023 debut album "My 21st Century Blues."
