Bingkai Karya– The rising pop star Julia Raye released her latest hit, “Wish You Stayed,” . A famous producer, Bret “Epic” Mazur has worked with the Black Eyed Peas, Prince, and Crazy Town. It follows her recent hits “Give You Up” and “Expectations.”
Julia’s soulful voice and sweet guitar melody capture the silent pain of losing an ideal love in “Wish You Stayed”. Emotionally powerful lyrics create raw moments of reflection that leave one wondering how everything gave way.
“I drew inspiration from the texts I sent to friends and the notes I had written on my phone while I was in the process of mourning a relationship,” she says. “In the end, it is about savoring and contemplating the positive experiences, even when it is clear that it is time to let go.”
Julia Raye, 23, from Long Island, New York, has performed since childhood. She sang, danced, and performed in local theaters as a child. By 17, she had been in over twenty musical theater plays and performed in the New York All State Choir and ACDA All National Choir.
Julia studied vocal performance at the University of Michigan under George Shirley, the first African-American Metropolitan Opera singer. This classical foundation boosted Julia’s voice, but her spirit has always matched R&B and pop. Julia’s voice is powerful and distinctive, blending operatic training with genuine, personal storytelling and appealing pop choruses, inspired by Beyoncé and Ariana Grande.
