In case you missed the memo, Raury is the living embodiment of HOPE.

From 2014’s Indigo Child to his debut album All We Need, the ATL prodigy has made it his mission to inspire the youth and help create a better world.

After sharing “Home” earlier this year, Raury went on to hold his third annual RAURFEST with special guests Joey Bada$$ and Lion Babe. And now, the ATLien is back with “NEVERALONE.”

Inspired by skydiver Luke Aikins, who is planning to jump out of a plane without a chute tomorrow (July 30th), Raury makes use of DJ Khalil’s production to deliver a hope-filled anthem full of optimism and determination.

“I just happen to be born in Atlanta, and had access to music and this happened to me,” Raury says. “I’m a musical daredevil. He was born where he was born and he had access to skydiving. The differences between being a musician or being a skydiver… it’s all honestly the same. We’re all people who believe something [and] try to show the world what’s in our head, our dreams.”
