Raye Reclaims Stolen Car, Finds Songwriting Books Unharmed: ‘Never Lose Hope’
In a remarkable turn of events, singer-songwriter Raye has successfully reclaimed her stolen car, which contained her cherished songwriting books. The incident occurred last October, just before her 27th birthday, leading to a significant delay in her second studio album’s release.
Police Recovery of Raye’s Stolen Car
Approximately three months ago, Raye received encouraging news from law enforcement. The police informed her that her stolen vehicle had been found, along with all of her songwriting materials intact. In her message to fans, Raye reflected on the journey, stating, “Not one thing had been taken out of the car. All my songwriting books were there, untouched.”
Impact of the Theft
The theft resulted in a setback for Raye, who had initially shared the unfortunate news on Instagram. The post, marking her birthday, expressed her disappointment: “It’s my birthday and my car got stolen with all my songwriting books in the boot so no second album any time soon love you bye.” To cope with the situation, she even had a cake that humorously read, “sorry ur car got stolen.”
New Year, New Optimism
Now 28, Raye has embraced her birthday with renewed optimism. She plans to spend her time in the studio, focusing on completing her new music. Raye acknowledges her solitude in the creative process, stating, “Bit of a loner these days but I don’t mind it at all. I’m writing a lot. Can’t wait to show you this music, just need to finish it all first.”
Upcoming Tour and New Music
Raye’s plan includes a significant North American tour. Scheduled for March, this will be her largest tour to date, featuring headlining performances at iconic venues like Radio City Music Hall in New York and the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. In addition to her touring plans, her latest single, “Where Is My Husband,” is steadily climbing the Billboard Hot 100.
Message of Hope
Reflecting on the recovery of her stolen items and her artistic endeavors, Raye shared a message of resilience: “Everything ended well. Never give up hope.” Her journey illustrates not only her passion for music but also the strength to overcome challenges.
