Speaking about the video RAYE said, “Icon is such a powerful word. As an artist, I think that to be truly iconic, your music, your style, your personality – it has to be 100% authentic. For this video, getting to celebrate some of my personal heroes and put my own twist on their iconic 90’s moments has been so much fun”.
