Ravyn Lenae is back with two dreamy cuts.
The Chicago-born singer has been lying low for a bit since her 2024 song, "Love Me Not," became a song-of-the-2025-summer contender, going mega-viral on TikTok and soundtracking the collective feed.
Now back as a newly minted global star, Lenae is teaming up with fellow crooner Dominic Fike with the very twee and timeless "Reputation" — an acoustic guitar driven track that finds Lenae and Fike trading bars that reflect on an up-and-down romance defined by the specter of dishonesty. It comes alongside a new Matthew Dillon Cohen-directed music video which finds the two musicians contending with one another in an auditorium and sunny home gym. The song reminds me of a good, old fashioned camp fire classic, simple and thematically eternal.
The track is being released during an auspicious time for Fike, who is seeing a new career peak with the surprise viral success of his 2018 song "Babydoll," now #16 on the Billboard Hot 100.
In addition to the collab with Fike, Lenae has also released "Bobby," a driving yearner that combine's Lenae's theatricality with an undeniable rock groove. It's released alongside a simple visualizer that shows Lenae emotively singing the track, which include its catchy refrain and call to "Let him go / Let him go."
Both songs are available to stream. Stay tuned with The FADER for more information regarding Ravyn Lenae and Dominic Fike's new releases.
