Ra Moody | “That Girl,” The Song For That Special Someone
Ra Moody is on a different creative wave in the best way possible and proves this with his latest single, “That Girl.” The up-and-coming artist describes being in the “takeover stage” of his career. And let us just say “That Girl” is more than enough evidence to prove this bold statement.
The Chicago-born artist has been in the music world for several years. At first, Ra Moody stayed behind the scenes producing various beats to help find his sound and vocal approach. Through this process, Ra Moody “fell in love with music” in many different ways.
Ra was a nickname they had for me because they couldn’t say my full name back in grade school…Now ‘Moody’ is a huge part of my artist name. I recognize the mood I’m in and flush out the emotion I’m feeling to any sound I want to express it in, Ra Moody, regarding the origin of his stage name.
During the pandemic, the rising artist finally made the decision to start releasing his own music and has been doing so for three years. We can confidently say his process paid off based on how polished the beat in “That Girl” plays and the seamless match with Ra Moody’s vocals.
Speaking of the beat in “That Girl,” the song makes its introduction gently. A soft guitar rift playfully bounces through the speakers in combination with more electric tones. By the 30-sec mark, Ra Moody is hooking you in further with his insanely smooth vocals.
For the remainder of the song, “That Girl” stays laidback and wavy regarding the beat. Still, you find yourself turning up the volume hoping to soak in every element.
As wavy as the beat is in “That Girl,” Ra Moody’s vocals take the track to an entirely different level. The artist captures your attention as soon as he appears on the track. And by the one-minute mark, Ra Moody will entirely hypnotize you.
Ra Moody’s powerful, passionate chorus gets you vibing; there’s no other way to explain it. And throughout the track, the talented artist matches the beat’s vibe and movement in incredible perfection.
Given how professional and polished “That Girl” is, you would expect it took Ra Moody months, maybe years, to perfect. However, the artist explains creating the demo for the track in less than an hour!
Although he was down bad with the flu, Ra Moody felt a sudden wave of inspiration and emotion about his past with someone special. From there, Ra Moody simply did his thing and stayed true to how he was feeling. And the result was the bop we know today as “That Girl.”
My antenna channeled the right emotions for what I was trying to paint about her but still wanted it to be interpreted for someone who’s felt or has yet to feel that way, Ra Moody.
Ra Moody is continually grinding, so make sure you follow him on Spotify and Instagram to stay updated. The up-and-coming artist already has hot tracks on his discography, like “8 am” and “Rebound.” And “That Girl” is sure to have similar success.
