Popular on Variety Variety wrote of Raye’s album: “Suffice it to say, the album does not lack for ambition: Divided into four sections based on the seasons, it sprawls across a surprisingly fast-moving 70 minutes, 17 songs and nearly as many styles.

Inevitably, it runs the risk of being too much for some listeners: too many songs, too many stylistic pivots, too much of… well, basically everything. This is not an album for background listening — it basically demands your attention.

“But as artists from Queen to Beyoncé have proven, ambition and excess can be glorious things when deployed with intelligence and humor, and while we’re not equating Raye with either of the above, there’s a similar sense here of trusting the artist to take you on an interesting voyage without wasting your time.” Performers at the show included Suede, Pulp, and others. Variety will have a full winners list after the show concludes.
