Cover Girl

Description

Lady Wray's third album on Big Crown Records, Cover Girl, marks a luminous turning point in the American singer's career. While Piece of Me (2022) bore witness to a period of introspection, Cover Girl is a vibrant celebration of love, faith, and personal rebirth. Still supported by her long-time collaborator Leon Michels on production, Lady Wray blends gospel, retro soul, disco, 90s R&B, and hip-hop into an irresistible mix. Carried by the feel-good single "You're Gonna Win" — a gospel-disco anthem boosted by the Fabulous Rainbow Singers choir — the album features a string of groovy and introspective gems: "Be A Witness" with its regal groove, the stripped-down ballad "Cover Girl" where Nicole Wray revisits her quest for identity, and "Where Could I Be" and "Best For Us," declarations of love for her family and her resilience. More assertive than ever, Lady Wray transforms her story into musical power. Cover Girl is both a return to self and a call to believe in one's own strength, carried by a voice that is both gentle and untamed.
