Genre-blending act Raveena drops new single ‘Rush,’ bringing pop and R&B sounds with catchy Bollywood soundscapes for a culturally-nuanced sonic experience. The psychedelic offering brings to life the story of Asha, a Punjabi space princess in her quest to absorb the spiritual intellect in a distant planet, with cinematic visuals co-directed by Raveena herself.

The video which the singer describes as “a campy ode to colourful 80s Bollywood movies and 70s Western sci-fi,” is juxtaposed against the upbeat, layered sonics which combined the earthy rhythm of Indian drums with the lush swirl of R&B and hip-hop. Channelling her typical love for using music as a form of self-expression, Raveena delivers up an upbeat and hypnotic production that listeners can lose themselves in.

A multi-dimensional artist who consistently crafts music that celebrates her South Asian heritage, ‘Rush’ is an explosive peek at what we can expect from the fierce talent in 2022.
