Since its release in August, “Better Things” has taken the music scene by storm, captivating audiences with its catchy lyrics and impressive choreography. This remix adds an extra layer of girl power to the track, seamlessly integrating RAYE’s fierce rap verse with aespa’s shimmering vocals.
The original acts as the girl group’s first original English single and was written and produced by Leroy Clampitt and Rachel Keen, the latter being RAYE’s real name, so it’s not a surprise to see them collaborate on a remix of the track. While the original keys into their light K-pop aesthetic, this remix invites more rhythmic drums with deep keys which sides more along RAYE’s R&B vibes. RAYE’s rap flows brilliantly into the track and only boosts the addictiveness of the song overall – we’ll have “Better Things” in our heads all day!
