We had the pleasure of interviewing RAEGAN over Zoom video!
New York-based, queer experimental alt-pop artist RAEGAN releases her highly-anticipated debut EP, FUCK RAEGAN. Her first full-length EP, the project debuts her as a rising, multi-faceted creative force to be reckoned with.
At its core, FUCK RAEGAN is an unpredictable, theatrical, and innovative journey through RAEGAN\u2019s inner workings. The six-track record shows her fully embracing her own unique sonic atmosphere, embellishing carefully-crafted rhythms with soft, haunting vocals. Combining witty-yet-personal lyrics with inventive beats and vivid soundscapes inspired by Tyler, the Creator and Marina, RAEGAN\u2019s versatility and songwriting prowess is front and center throughout the EP.\xa0
The four previously-released singles are now complemented by two additional tracks - tongue-in-cheek title track \u201cFUCK RAEGAN\u201d and the vulnerable \u201c101 DALMATIONS.\u201d \u201cFUCK RAEGAN\u201d sets the tone for the project with its unapologetic confidence of RAEGAN finding her identity that served as a driving force in the EP\u2019s formative stages. Meanwhile, \u201c101 DALMATIANS'' ends the project on a softer, more vulnerable note as RAEGAN juxtaposes the prior tracks as she laments, \u201cYou don\u2019t want them to know me.\u201d As a whole, the songs build an empowering illustration of the authentic, head-spinning experiences of navigating self-discovery and to not take life too seriously, despite everything.
\u201cIn this period, I was finding my identity not only in life but as an artist; these beats are me experimenting with that,\u201d shares RAEGAN. \u201cContinuing to grow and elevate, I see myself having found my audience and creating a bond with them. It\u2019s only up from here, and I'm excited for people to hear what I've made so far so I can start releasing my new music and have my listeners follow me through real time. I'm constantly growing and going through different eras of my life and I'm ready to show the world who I am now.\u201d RAEGAN consistently challenges artistic boundaries with her work. Following the positive reception of her track \u201cCOINS'' late last year, which was highlighted in Billboard\u2019s \u201cQueer Jams of the Week,\u201d
RAEGAN continues to remain a dynamic force in the alt-pop music scene and grow her legion of dedicated fans online. Her earlier single, \u201cMEAN'' gained praise from People Magazine, earning her a spot on their \u201cTalented Emerging Artists\u201d list, recognizing her as a bold trailblazer in the industry. Her latest release, \u201cFROGS,\u201d set the stage for the EP and earned playlisting by Ones To Watch and praise from Substream Magazine. Her work has not only been praised for its sound, but for the songs\u2019 accompanying visuals that bring them to life on a screen and further prove RAEGAN\u2019s overall artistic genius.\xa0
The release of \u2018FUCK RAEGAN\u2019 is momentum for what is set to be a massive year for RAEGAN. Last week, she concluded supporting Autoheart on their completely sold-out Love Me, Love Me, Love Me tour across the United States, bringing her captivating live set to venues such as the iconic Troubadour in Los Angeles and New York City\u2019s Racket.
Stay tuned for more from RAEGAN.
