Catford artist releases new single, Dark Skinned

Catford raised Ray Blk has released her new single Dark Skinned, along with a live Vevo performance of the track.

The song, featuring a catchy chorus and powerful lyrics, is a celebration of being dark skinned.

She said: “The conversation around race often feels heavy and negative, but I love my blackness and it is a privilege to be black.

“A lot of people told me it would be hard to break into this industry because of the colour of my skin, but I believe that whatever the situation, I am going to shine regardless and I refuse to cater to that ideology. I want people to say yes to themselves when the world keeps telling them no.”

Ray Blk has spent lockdown writing and recording her long-awaited debut album which promises to be one of the cultural highlights of the year.
