After building a following with successful mixtapes
Durt (2016) and
Empress (2018), London-based Ray BLK makes her first full-length statement with
Access Denied, her 2021 debut album. Released on Island Records, the project darts between genres and collaborators as Ray takes a more pop-centric approach to the music game, delivering narratives of self-worth, commercial success, and sexual exploits. ~ David Crone
