Ray Charles (song)

"Ray Charles" is a single released from American rap group Chiddy Bang.

It was released in Canada on November 14, 2011 as a digital download as the second single from their debut studio album Breakfast.

Briefly, "Pass Out" and "So What Cha Want", by Tinie Tempah and the Beastie Boys, respectively, can be heard.

[2] Robert Copsey of Digital Spy gave the song a positive review stating: It's easy to see how they've come to appreciate the late star as their soul homage not only fully embodies his sound, but also highlights how popular it remains today.

Over a vintage piano riff and bouncy jazz section they rap a tribute to the legend that falls somewhere between profound and dangerously tongue-in-cheek ("You're too blind to see it"), but the result nonetheless sounds genuinely heartfelt.
