Unfortunately, we hear stories of women being harassed way too often. There’s no excuse for it, and we must listen to those who speak out against it.
Toronto based GRAE speaks out against catcallers and other forms of street harassment in her new single “Woman’s World”.
GRAE has been writing music since she was 10 years old, and began her musical journey after relocating to Australia for 9 months. She gained attention by playing at various intimate cafes and venues, and her following has grown ever since.
Here’s what GRAE had to say about the track…
“Woman’s World was written from a place of disappointment and anger after a night out with my best friend. After having experienced my first real encounter with street harassment. It’s infuriating that women continue to get harassed, yelled at, even grabbed and touched by men in public places. What’s even more upsetting is how often it happens and how it’s almost deemed as this regular thing that we need to just “deal with” as women. It’s a topic that upsets me and one that needs to be talked about more. I have many friends who have experienced sexual harassment, and I myself have too. After having heard stories from many who are close to me, and then having experienced it myself, it was clear that I needed to say something. Woman’s World is for the women who have experienced these disgusting acts. It’s a song of empowerment and one that I really hope brings us closer and opens more doors to these types of conversations.”
“Woman’s World” is an empowering anthem you’ll fall in love with! Give it a listen below.
