Music News: The global phenomenon Prada by cassö x RAYE x D-Block Europe smashes the charts via Ministry Of Sound/B1

 


International phenomenon hit claims the #1 spot on Soundcloud as well as the U.K. and U.S.

11 million streams on Soundcloud alone and surpassing 80,000 creations on TikTok

From Emily Ratajkowski to Ellie Goulding, and Zara Larsson to Tana Mongeau, it is the sound that has filled countless transitions, GRWMs, reveals and tap-ins - Prada by cassö x RAYE x D Block Europe is out now! Sweeping countless festival and party playlists across the globe, this anthemic hit quickly worked its way to the #1 spot on the global Soundcloud charts as well as the U.K. and U.S.

cassö’s debut release, Prada was initially created for house parties he would play at. The twenty-year-old had been only producing for eight months, and he hadn't gigged outside of the living rooms of countless Swansea uni Halls - Prada propelled cassö to new and uncharted heights. Originally spun off “Ferrari Horses” by MOBO Award-Winning D-Block Europe featuring Brits Billion Award recipient RAYE, Prada was cut on the uni laptop of cassö earlier this year.

Obsessed with the wandering and alluring vocal of RAYE, cassö says “Listening to Ferrari horses in my playlist RAYE’s vocals just stood out to me, I knew that would be perfect for a trance-type drop. I made a euphoric pluck and a somewhat aggressive bassline to power the vocals. At the drop I wanted the song to ‘explode’ with the lyrics by making a flared change to the bassline pattern”.

After uploading the track on Soundcloud, Prada rocketed across the globe and attributed to waves of trends across TikTok and Instagram alike. Prada has garnered over 11 million streams on Soundcloud and surpassed 80,000 creations in the last four months alone! A whirlwind of a story thus far, it’s no mean feat to bag two global artists on a debut track for a uni student.


Lyrics:
Bout to take my lady Selfridges, new drip on the way, uh-huh
Rap nigga still sellin' bricks, half a cake on the way, uh-huh
Take a flight, she wanna take a Lyft, for the molly man, he's on the way, uh-huh
I might take her The Shard, I might take her The Ritz, it don't matter, baby, I'm straight, uh-
huh
I feel like I'm in Prince's housе, purple paint all on the walls, uh-huh
Sittin' down on this fancy couch and I can't see straight, I'm a state, uh-huh
22, I'm in Paris, baby, got a strippеrs tits in my face, uh-huh
Pull up in a Bentley, I want Christian, I want Fendi, I want Prada (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
I already make that paper, I don't need to chase no clout, wow
I don't usually pipe up but I don't like how you runnin' your mouth, wow
I already make that paper, I don't need to chase no clout, wow
I don't usually pipe up but I don't like how you runnin' your mouth, wow
You're a side piece from east, then I'm a bad bitch from south, wow
Baby, baby, I got more money coming in than going out
'Bout to take my lady Selfridges, new drip on the way, uh-huh
Rap nigga still sellin' bricks, half a cake on the way, uh-huh
Take a flight, she wanna take a Lyft, for the molly man, he's on the way, uh-huh
I might take her The Shard, I might take her The Ritz, it don't matter, baby, I'm straight, uh-
huh
I feel like I'm in Prince's housе, purple paint all on the walls, uh-huh
Sittin' down on this fancy couch and I can't see straight, I'm a state, uh-huh
22, I'm in Paris, baby, got a strippеrs tits in my face, uh-huh
Pull up in a Bentley, I want Christian, I want Fendi, I want Prada (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
