Because Raye is so outspoken , telling truth, is why she wasn't nominated for the Grammys. They didn't want her up there telling this truth.

Maybe, but the Grammys are a disgrace as of late, lacking integrity, it has become a popularity contest, and imagine giving an award to an incredibly talented woman like RAYE who turned the industry upside down, and justice was served

@@jojociara5201 and Raye is an independent artist now who broke out of her unfair record industry contract, the Grammys are an industry insider group always patting each other on the back and they don't like when artists go independent, the Grammys are a bust, Brit awards got it so right.

Absolutely, I want this woman to have a bigger voice. She can change the industry.

Artist like these come one in a million. The majority of them write music to make money - very few like Raye write music because they truly love to share their story. Artist like these don’t need awards - they need us to continue supporting them and going out to their concerts and buying their music. This is amazing Raye and I applaud your bravery!!!

I knew the industry was corrupt, but I didn’t realize how corrupt…

All profit driven industries are corrupt by virtue of their nature.

she's so right omg.This explains why the narrative of the music industry is so heavily pushing artists who sing about all the things they have because they have money whereas most the world who live without these wealth privileges can't relate, they're side is not seen and heard so we're only listening to one experience and that's the experience of being rich and having nice things which is so so wrong.

God please protect her in this crazy industry!

SO much respect for Raye for being brave enough to tell it how it is. a lot of your favourite artists are complicit and benefit from the way the machine operates in the music industry.

i respect raye so much for saying this. She is really going to make an impact

so brave of Raye to be a voice and face to finally talk about the financial side of the music industry... say what you want about music and $, but EVERYONE deserves to be able to live if they put in work. Even in music

Love this interviewer. Really showing how to be supportive and intelligent and engaged.

I absolutely love that she is so passionate about what she does

This should be viral.

independent artists like her need to be protected at all cost!! I appreciate RAYE for speaking out about this bc its so true and as an inspiring artist myself I can see lot of corruption in the industry. Music is an art form meant to heal us emotionally and artists should be compensated for being humanitarian to the culture.

Speak on it Raye! Thanks for giving s voice to this issue. And thank you to the reporter for letting her speak uninterrupted! 🙌🏾💯

She's so likeable cause she keeps it realll

This needs to be heard by the masses. It's hard being a creative person in this world

Good conversation, but she left out another huge part of this, probably intentionally: artists who don't write their songs bullying the songwriters into giving them a writing credit in exchange for recording their song and putting it on the record and/or releasing it as a single.

@@ArKaneAcrumProductions Some singers demand a writing credit, even when they don’t contribute, in exchange for putting that song on their album. If the songwriter does not agree, it can get really ugly. Publishing for lyrics brings the big money. Plus, certain singers want to be considered an artist and/or musician so desperately, they do whatever is necessary to be able to call themselves a “singer-songwriter”. That includes some very disturbing tactics to take advantage of those songwriters who usually do not have any leverage to “negotiate”.

More people like this need to speak out. KZread algorithm is also a big problem, that’s why I don’t upload most of my songs.

So appreciate the courage Raye has taken to express the mis-justice thats going on in the music industry. I really pray and hope this issue will eventually get resolved for the near-future for all the young people coming up with their gifts writing and producing great songs.

it is so refreshing seeing artists that are this woke for situations like that all my respect to raye for spreading so passionately about this topic

The more I learn about the entertainment industry, the more I wish artists would avoid these labels but I’m sure they punish anyone who wants to be independent

get this girl on the news everyone NEEDS to hear this NOW

The industry needs more artists like Raye ❤

such a respectful interviewer, refreshing to really hear the artist

Just watched a deep dive into Kesha so this checks out. The music industry is predatory af

cmon raye! speak truth to power

Wow, extremely well spoken. Lots of respect for her❤

I love when an artist speaking the real truth 😌 🙌🏾 👏🏾

Here in the U.S. there is a song writing advocate named Tiffany Red. She had been fighting against the same problem. Its gotten so back she is getting death threats.

Raye is a true working class icon, her rawness is so captivating

Theyll have you starving in these writer sessions that you pay to transport there, to eat your food all for an 'opportunity' whilst the producer, engineers get paid to be there like wtf

Thank you for highlighting the reality Raye so candidly. 💖

Talk that talk, Raye!

Love this interview!

realist talk I've heard in a long time

Well said Raye!

I'm surprised this hasn't got more views!!

Well said👏🏾💕

she's sooo real

Yess raye!! Love your passion and confidence to use your voice to speak up! 🎉❤ keep shining queen!

it’s the ‘evil’ in marks for me

Yes my beautiful sister 💖

yhhh lol the industry is fucked, I dunno how signed artists do it....

Thank you this made me cry

Speak!!!

I praise you Raye love 😘

I loooove her for this

this officially made me a fan.

She should link up with Tiffany red

love her, total inspiration

Yesssss

Matthew 10:24 & 32,33.... Time has come to turn from our sins and stop idolizing Hollywood actors, Professional athletes & the music industry

More artists should speak about this. Raye can only do so much. Gaga needs to talk about it and big names too. This is messed up they do that to song writers.

youtube needs to add a retweet feature.

What a boss

Indeed FYI.

I doubt it cos Raye has been on the other side of it, writing for other artists and making pennies, they don’t do that. It will take them coming out to fight for their co-writers & others. It’s personal for RAYE, she’s fighting for her peers.

This why I pulled all my music from bs Spotify and the cheating Distrokid and the rest of them. I'll rather give my music away for free than have a conglomerate steal 99% of it.

she needs to push for unionization

I wonder if raye owns her masters now hmm

See, what did I tell y'all? All this "I'm doing music for the art and love" is some cliché BS. When Ice Cube, Lisa Lopes, etcetera went up to the labels' offices w/ bats & gats, do y'all think they were fighting for some doggon "creative control" over they music or were they tryna see what the fuck was up w/ they paycheck? Was Prince Rogers Nelson writing "sLaVe" on his face to be cute and make a statement or was he tryna see what the fuck was up w/ his paycheck? All that art sh¡t is cute, but when it get down to the wire and you ain't got shit to show for...I mean... Nah you done made all this music, but yo' ass is in the po' house because you _cain't_ pay yo' bills.
