“BADDIE” was inspired by social media culture”, explains Lois Rae. “It’s sassy and empowering. I used this track to explore the idea that a woman is much more than the image you see of her on Instagram - it’s a tongue in cheek way of responding to people who judge a book by it’s cover.”
Hailing from Manchester, Lois Rae is infusing her modern pop sound with a nostalgic 90s flare and aspects of classic R&B music. At only the start of her career, if “BADDIE” is anything to go by, we should get used to hearing the name Lois Rae in the future!
