Whether you like it or not, didn’t like Corbyn etc etc this is what the Conservative vote has fuelled. If you voted Tory and don’t believe in this rise of open hate you have a duty to call it out. This is a humanity problem not whether you like Corbyn or not problem.
Progressives, from left to centre, need a strategy to fight this. Urgently.

I’ve sung 3 UK top 10 singles, 2 Number 1s, 1 Grammy nominated, Billboard dance chart 1 & 2 and I’m unsigned, currently self managing & running my own independent label so I can put my music out and be heard. I have requests for my vocals and writing on records EVERY DAY
Shall we talk about Black female vocalists on House music tracks used for authenticity but never making the visuals for the marketed video or worse yet credited as the featuring act?! 🤷🏾♂️

We’re made to be obsessed with the numbers, the streams, but how can you be heard if you don’t have the platform or the playlists to do so? Just cuz a tune might have less than 1000 streams doesn’t mean it’s not a sick piece of music & artistry.
Look & Listen beyond the numbers

If we keep allowing this, turning a blind eye & normalising this behaviour we are collectively saying it’s ok.
Then when your sister, friend, mother, daughter gets assaulted by men who feel this behaviour is justified who do we blame but ourselves for letting this fester
Please sign the petition. Language like this should not be acceptable never mind printed in a national newspaper. As a survivor of sexual violence and online abuse we must stop normalising violence against women !

I got a D in my music A level (wasn’t very good at Bach chorales 🥴) & didn’t go to Uni. I’ve sung 3 top 10 singles, run my own label & am a published songwriter. Don’t worry about the results if they aren’t what you wanted, you make your own path

Lady Leshurr is talented AF!! Owning the stage! Pure comfort zone!
Wish the UK would support our own more then they do. So many talented female artists just casually slayin the game - it’s fine you lot will catch up.
Nobody will ever know how much this means to me 😩❤️ Birmingham my hometown ✨ the energy was MAD.

Just produced my first record completely solo!
That feels deeply satisfying!
Defo clear holes and Ad-Prod mixing needed etc but feels pretty good to take my own acapella and build my own record from the vocal up. More of this!

This has made me feel so up and down over the years. Why haven’t I had the label support? proper management support? If my voice can make ‘hits’ can’t I possibly make my own ‘hits’ if I had the industry support and backing? Instead I’ve had to back myself

I sent ‘Never Dance Again’ to A&Rs & got no reply, one label said it wasn’t good enough & today I landed on playlist slots higher than signed releases & had awesome Day 1 radio support. You never know what can happen in music but todays support as an independent has been epic! ❤️🩹

& my story isn’t singular. I have spoken to many vocalists on Dance whom have felt like this but especially the black soul vocal artists whom I’ve met have all said the same, they’ve adapted & got on with it but why should they keep singing the big records and making a fraction?

If you’re coming up in the industry watch your manners. Just because you are young & doing well doesn’t excuse you to have attitude. Remember reputation in the industry proceeds you. Be respectful, be honest & be direct but don’t be a prick 👌🏽

I’m knackered, I’m nervous but I’m deeply proud! Self managing, running a label, being an artist, running a team whilst creating & performing is the most insane full on thing I’ve ever done. Thanks to all those who’ve been supporting, stuck by me & believed in me!💙

Another friend called me up to chat about whether she can post about a dance track she’s written & sung but is uncredited on as the producer didn’t want her name on it. Singers if you want to be credited it’s time to say NO to be taken advantage of.

It’s a shame UK female artists don’t collab like US female artists do.
It would be so powerful & bold especially in reference to the representation & support for woman in music stats.
UK female artists could make waves doing this. UK Male artists are already capitalising on it

Started the day feeling like shit , ended the day remembering why I do this. This music industry ‘job’ is a 24/7 mind fuck rollercoaster sometimes it grinds me down so low, then I’ll sing & connect & open up & find my strength again. Just gotta keep pushing & stay focused ❣️

For people that say racism isn’t a big deal, not a thing, doesn’t exist nowadays - Why has every single black & brown person got a story to tell & an emotional experience to share? There’s no more excuses, You’re choosing to be ignorant if you don’t believe what we’re telling you

I really don’t want ‘Can’t Dance’ to fail cuz it didn’t get enough Spotify playlists or Radio 1 support.
49 regional radio stations, 300,000 streams & Kiss specialist support in a month & a half! I did the best I could with this record but the gatekeepers have final say.

I’ve been thinking about
@raye
tweets for most of the night. I am shocked one of the UKs leading artists has been going through this.
Why do female artists have to jump through 50 X more hoops to be appreciated, respected & supported?!
Imagine this pain
I have been signed to a major label since 2014...and I have had albums on albums of music sat in folders collecting dust, songs I am now giving away to A list artists because I am still awaiting confirmation that I am good enough to release an album.
