People see this headline and celebrate, but the actual industry timeline is insane
In 2021, her major record label refused to let her drop a debut album after keeping her in contract limbo for 4 years
She broke her contract, went independent, won a Grammy for Songwriter of the Year, and now she’s Variety’s 2026 Hitmaker of the Year.
The ultimate independent vindication.
Raye is Variety’s 2026 Hitmaker of the Year.
Other honorees include Olivia Rodrigo (Songwriter of the Year), Katseye (Group of the Year), and Sienna Spiro (Visionary Voice), with more names to be announced in the coming weeks.
The 10th annual Hitmakers event will be held in Los Angeles on December 5.

Hey, so just because you found out about Ashe last month does not mean she spawned out of no where. Her vintage aesthetic is nothing new because that’s always been her vibe. Chill and leave her alone 💀
