Raye has earned her first number 1 single with her independent release ‘Escapism’.
Thanks to her hard work and determination, the singer, who’s real name is Rachel Agatha Keen, has earned the top spot as she prepares to release her debut album titled ‘My 21st Century Blues’ on 3rd February 2023.
It comes after RAYE parted ways from her record label last year, saying she was being treated as a “rent a vocal” dance artist.

‘Escapism’ became a TikTok hit after the track went viral, exposing the track to thousands, helping the track to top the charts.
Chatting to Official Charts today, Raye said:
"We are Number 1 in the UK! It’s the first Number 1 of the year, it’s my first Number 1 in my life. I’m an independent artist, this is sickening!
This is proof [you should] back yourself, no matter what. Thank you, this is mad. These are happy tears!"
