Professionally trained as a musician, music has always been in Raina Simone’s forefront. From perfecting instrumental skills to engineering and production, Raina Simone has always been more than just an artist since her adolescence. The art of rapping came to her in her development as well, and fast-forward to today, she brings a different twist to the airwaves.

This NYC-born, NJ-based lyrical bombshell is also very versatile in her own right, preparing to release a NYC drill phenomenon — her forthcoming EP To My Hearts. Different from what regular Raina Simone supporters would usually expect, she will definitely shock her listeners and newcomers with this EP, slated to release mid-September of this year.
“It was important to me to humanize the emotions behind the lifestyles that so many demonize without proper understanding while also showing that the drill sound can be separate from drill content.”
