“SWIM” by Lois Rae

Just keep swimming. That’s the ethos of Lois Rae’s new tune, “SWIM”, anyhow. Teaming up with renowned East London rapper Tike, the song exudes a relaxed, positive energy that invites the listener to step back from the crazy pace of modern life and enjoy the good things inherent in any situation. Rae’s assured vocals and chilled-out instrumentals create a sense of a bubble existing outside it all – a place where it’s just a little sunnier.

 

It’s aided by the production bonafides of frequent collaborator Manon Dave, who has also worked with the likes of will.i.am and Che Lingo.

 

Rae has only been picking up the momentum with each release. Her love of a variety of genres and care for the intricacies of production have made her a favourite across the music tastemaker elite, including on prestigious spots on BBC’s Introducing and Asian Network strands, as well as Radio 1XTRA and Kiss FM.

 

Having earned notices across the board in 2021 with tunes like “BADDIE” and “THAT’S ME”, “SWIM” presages a 2022 for Lois Rae that’s sure to be a successful and vibrant one – coasting on the same waves of optimism that she conjures so vividly in this new single. That’s a vibe to take into spring.
