Raja-Nee' [2021] - Come Get This Love (The Samuel Archer Remix) [JARF Music Group]


Raja-Nee' "Come Get This Love", one of the top tunes this year (although originally issued on ThaSaint's album "This Is Us" last Sep), is getting a new mix from Samuel Archer due out on 2 Jul 2021. 

I posted a sample yesterday, but with Raja-Nee's approval here now is the full version prior to release next Friday.

Raja-Nee's real name is Alicia Renee Knott-Freeman (but answers to Renee in the main) and she told me the story of how she became known as Raja-Nee'.

"My producer at the time asked me what did I like, I said reggae! He said Reggae Nee’, Raga Nee’ and then Raja-Nee’, I said that’s it!!! I knew it meant ruler or king. But it was confirmed on a flight to Los Angeles an Indian flight attendant said, do you know what your name means? I said yes, a ruler. She said Nee meant born as, so it means “Born as a ruler”. I was like perfect! "

She was active in 1994 and released a few singles and an album "Hot & Ready" and had a UK #42 hit with 'Turn It Up' in Mar.1995.

She was spotted by Marshall Thompson of The Chi-Lites who mentored her and she toured with The Chi-Lites and performed on their 1990 "Just Say You Love Me" album. Later she signed to a deal with Auto & Cherokee who got her an audition with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis which led to a solo project on their Perspective label where they produced her hit track "Turn It Up" which also featured on "Low Down Dirty Shame" movie soundtrack in 1994. 

In 2020 she re-emerged from her musical hiatus with a vengeance with "Come Get This Love" making a noise, especially in the UK.

The song was written by Richard Wilford & Raja-Nee’, produced by and featuring John ThaSaint Morris & Wilfred Frelix and first appeared on ThaSaint's album "This Is Us" in Sep 2020. It was released as a single by Raja-Nee in Mar 2021.

Raja-Nee’ desired to have a remix produced and teamed up with Samuel Archer (the founder of “Muzilog” an online magazine publication) to produce a remix track. "Come Get This Love (The Samuel Archer Remix)" will be available for sale on July 2, 2021.
