The announcement of CRYBABY coincides with the release of the project’s title track. Aptly titled “CRYBABY,” it demonstrates how Rae has maintained her momentum as an accomplished disruptor. Her eclectic sound reverberates across the funk-infused production, taking listeners on an epic sonic journey. A thrill ride through the ebb and flow of life, “CRYBABY” is a tangible expression of Rae’s emotional intelligence – Listen
The CRYBABY album will feature one of Rae’s most talked-about tracks “Is It Worth It.” The fan-favorite song has amassed over 1.2 million Spotify streams and counting, alongside earning praise from top-tier tastemakers with looks from Billboard, Variety, ESSENCE Girls United, and more. Additionally, CRYBABY flaunts guest spots from Anderson .Paak, Freddie Gibbs, Benny Sings, TianaMajor9, Kha|!|, and Zacari.
Just last month, Rae participated in UMG’s Loud & Proud artist showcase to celebrate Pride 2024. The event was livestreamed exclusively on 3point5, a popular Twitch channel, and featured live performances by the APESHIT signee, indie pop band Valley, and emerging artist Emeline.
CRYBABY is now available for pre-order and follows the June-released single “SHE’S A BORE,” which has been touted as a song that “flaunts her impressive range and storytelling across the verses” from YouKnowIGotSoul.
The Southern California born-and-raised artist has been on a speedy ascension since her notable appearance on Netflix’s Rhythm + Flow in 2019. She followed that up with 2020’s FORTHEWORLD LP. Then, Rae received her first Grammy win for her songwriting and background vocal contributions to “Lockdown” by Anderson .Paak. The song won Best Melodic Rap Performance at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards in 2021.
As she continues to level up with each release, Rae refuses to be boxed in and doesn’t shy away from pushing the boundaries of new age R&B.
