Raissa – Desire Path

The multilingual, multinational world-pop artist Raissa announces her new track “DO U RIDE” which is co-written by Raissa herself and Evan Voytas.

Along comes the announcement of her new DESIRE PATH EP coming out this summer, following the release of the Spanish-language heater, “MANZANA”, “GUAPA,” and her EP, Cute Threat.

Raissa adds: “In “DO U RIDE” I’m flexing with things I can back up. Flaunting yourself to the point of taunting your detractors, but always all in good fun, I was really inspired by the rhythms of Soca for this track.”

Raissa embodies the kind of bold contradictions that make for truly transcendent pop: she’s wildly inventive yet refined in musicality, sensitive yet self-possessed, fiercely intelligent yet deeply attuned to the sensory pleasures of melody and groove.

Earlier, she released the music video for the track “Cute Threat”  on Neon Gold Records. Born in Spain, Raissa inherited a mastery of French and Spanish from her parents and a love of songwriting from Leonard Cohen. She spent her childhood between Beijing, Sydney, Kuala Lumpur, and London – as a result, she draws from a deep well of creative influences, everything from antique Gothic literature to vintage anime.
