RAYE, WHERE IS MY HUSBAND! | Song Review 🎵

Grammy-nominated British R&B singer/songwriter RAYE yearns for a husband, and 🔜 on her marvelous single, “WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!”.

“Baby (Woo-hoo), where the hell is my husband? (Woo-hoo) / What is takin’ him so long to find me?” RAYE (Rachel Keen), I’ve been asking the same question… for a hella long time.  But, this isn’t about me, it’s about the Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter who never fails to impress! In “WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!” she’s waiting for a great man to make her his wife.  She penned and produced  “HUSBAND” alongside Mike Sabath. “Why is this beautiful man waiting for me to get old?” she asks in the first verse, and adds, “Wait till I get my hands on him, I’ma tell him off, too / For how long he kept me waitin’, anticipatin’.”

The loneliness has really gotten to RAYE in the second verse, where, “I’m doing lonely acrobatics, unzipping my dress at 2 am / And I’m tired of living like this.” Her loneliness and yearning are our listening pleasure. From start to finish, RAYE wows with her commanding, distinct, expressive, and nuanced instrument.  The melodies are rhythmic and tuneful, while the lyrics are engaging, memorable, and in most instances, relatable.  Further fueling her fire is a colorful musical accompaniment, which has some jazz, soulful, and vintage touches.  Though old-school is easily perceptible, “WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!” sounds incredibly refreshing in the year of our Lord, 2025.  All told, RAYE knocks it out of the park with this joint.  Hopefully, you find your man, gurl!
