Ray BLK And Stefflon Don Are Healing Broken Hearts On Dancehall-Tinged Joint "Over You"


November 25, 2021

Just over a month ago UK R&B royalty Ray BLK delivered her long-awaited debut album Access Denied—an empowering collection of songs that shined a light on her vulnerabilities. One track in particular, album closer "Over You" with Stefflon Don, is the ultimate anthem for healing from a heartbreak, and it's now been given an energetic set of visuals.

Directed by Labi, we're welcomed into a basement rave packed with writhing dancers lost in the pop-dancehall rhythms. At the centre of it all is a glammed-up Ray BLK and Stefflon Don untethered from their inhibitions, with Ray echoing "I found the cure on the dancefloor".

The energy captured in this video is guaranteed to have listeners two-stepping to the sample of Steven "Lenky" Marsden's "Diwali Riddim", which producers Fred Ball and Rymez revamp with touches of pop to accentuate Ray's bouncy melodies.

Speaking on the track, Ray explains: "Over you is about enjoying the feeling of healing from a breakup. That sudden realisation that you no longer care about something that was making you constantly sad. You wake up one day and you don't think about that person anymore or care to entertain them.

"I wanted to make a song about overcoming a break-up and for it to be upbeat so you could hear it in a club or in a party, as that's where we usually end up when going through a break-up to distract yourself. I want the people who are going through that to hear the words in that moment and start to, or continue to, move on."
