Cocoa Sarai - Raining In My Room
Producer: Jayd
Album: The Black & White
Label: Catapult
Remember that scene in Alice in Wonderland where the heroine cried so hard that (thanks to the shrinking effects of the famous “Eat Me” cake) she nearly drowned in her own tears? Well, it’s a damn good thing magic cake doesn’t exist in the real world; otherwise Cocoa Sarai would run a serious risk of being swept away in the torrential downpour of post-breakup sorrow she describes on her first solo feature, Raining in My Room. Originally released back in December 2011, this heartbroken single finds producer Jayd serving up a deceptively upbeat, guitar-laced R&B/pop groove as the Roller Coaster/Book of Faust hookwoman describes the traumatic effects of her ex-man’s departure (“Now my pillow’s soaking wet, there’s a river by my bed….”), begging him to return and rescue her from her grief. Will the guy in question heed Cocoa Sarai’s call and take her back? We can only speculate, and hope. Either way, fans of innovative R&B won’t want to miss the rest of the fresh material on the artist’s latest full-length, The Black & White, available on iTunes right now.

I need a #LatePass after not jumping all over this in December when it first hit the internets. Cocai demands your attention with her radio-ready, strong vocals. If her complete new album is as listenable as this single, I have a feeling her career prospects will be pointing upwards.

I dunno. The beat is too overpowering and confusing. Kinda wish i could take out some of it and hear it again.

This is aaaiiiight. The whole song just feels a bit dreary to me. Decent voice by Cocoa, but not my type of song overall. Probably a good single for the masses though.
