@@sabrowenie when it defeats the purpose of the video to begin with and theres plenty of advertisements on other non-musical content, "paying the bills" is not a reasonably justifiable excuse to ruin the experience that an artist worked so hard to create by interrupting it with what's likely to be brain rotting propaganda for something that isn't good for anyone at the end of the day.

She reminds me of Amy Winehouse, but has her own, unique way of approaching jazz. It's lovely to see her get the recognition she deserves.

There is an authenticity to her music and her art, something truly organic about the way that she performs, each time she sings a song live it sounds different to the last.

She reminds me how amazing us humans are.. such an amazing artist. Vocals, writing, lyrics… she has it all. On the tiny desk front. She is up there at joint number one with Yebba.. just ahead of Usher!

Raye's what you call THE REAL DEAL! A once in a generation artist. Just plain WOW! Awesomeness!

Her explanation about the fluctuation of vocals saying the phrase “she” - I have so much respect for her - this performance made me cry not only because of the heart in the songs but because of her as an artist. You can really feel that she LOVES music, that she KNOWS it deeply. I get a similar feeling about artists like Jacob Collier / Jon Bellion - just so clever + endlessly captivating

Raye is going to be such a trailblazer in this industry. Her album is extremely powerful, well articulated and crafted so effortlessly. You can genuine hear her passion through each song and the way her band behind her are all smiling shows how fun it must be to work with her. As soon as she announced she did a tiny desk record, I rushed onto here because I knew her talent could put a smile on my face!

I had no idea who she was prior to this and I’m in love with her sound . This is easily one of the best tiny desks I’ve heard in some time

the fact she had the crowd singing along for one of her songs 😍 shes my fav artist!

Her voice reminds me of Amy Winehouse, soulful deep and expressive with perfect pitch. Hopefully she'll be here for the long ride.

I've lost count of how many times I've come back to watch this performance, yet I'm always equally amazed like it's my first time watching. One of my all time favorite tiny desk performances 😍

Perfect ❤❤❤

Seeing her smile during her performance gives me LIFE!! Love your vibes, RAYE :) 😊

Absolutely phenomenal. She was so held in a box as a dance artist when she was signed to polydor, now we can see how many other facets there are to her talent and vocal ability

she is sent from heaven like what do you mean !!!!?

I'm here for it

I love this woman. A South London Goddess. First hearing her honest and fierce song Escapism (with Shake 070), then she appears on Graham Norton which is a huge gig here in UK. And now this....star rises. Oozing and dripping with soul. Timing, vocal riffs, storytelling, sassy lyricist, presence, fabulous band....it's all here!

RAYE and this band single handedly just performed the best tiny desk concert ever performed

just came back... wonderful
