RAYE Says Her Third Album Could Take 10 Years — She Wants to Fall in Love First

British singer RAYE, 28, made a memorable appearance on the TODAY show’s Citi Summer Concert Series in New York on Thursday, August 20, 2026.

During the appearance, RAYE revealed an unexpected condition for her next major project: she does not plan to record her third studio album until she falls in love.

The singer said she intends to call the album And Then She Fell in Love, reflecting the personal experience she wants to capture through the music.

RAYE even suggested that fans could potentially wait as long as 10 years for the album if she does not find love sooner.

The revelation comes as a playful but striking contrast to the traditional pressure surrounding album release schedules. Rather than rushing into her next record, RAYE appears determined to wait until she experiences the emotion she wants the album to explore.

For now, there is no firm release date for And Then She Fell in Love—the timing depends entirely on when RAYE finds the love that inspires it.
