Blending roots in her birthplace of Toronto, Canada and her heritage in Portugal, Vicky Rai is crafting pop songs that are laced with themes of love and emotion. Since 2020, she’s gained acclaim from a range of tastemakers and represented Canada on the BravoFestival Junior stage. Showing no signs of slowing down, she continues to work for her dream and continues on an exponential trajectory.
Vicky’s latest offering is ‘Worth It In The End’, a single that speaks to her coming out story. Emotionally telling her story, Vicky laces in infectious melodies and pop sensibilities, infusing the track with an uplifting essence beyond the deeper meaning. Warm bass lines, twinkling piano melodies and reverberant vocal harmony all feed into a momentous climax in which strings, drums and choir-like chords involve themselves in the atmosphere. Inspiring and heartfelt, it's another impressive single from Vicky Rai.
Vicky speaks on the release, “Feeling trapped in your own mind not being able to love who you want to love. It's not just a phase, it's who I am and I'm tired of keeping secrets. It's necessary to accept yourself for who you are before you can expect others to accept you. ‘You've got to make up your mind’ was often said to me.”
