Raye has revealed that just 18 months ago her career 'had gone to s**t' and she was doing gigs for just 100 people.

It comes as she broke records at Saturday night's BRIT Awards , winning six gongs during a star-studded ceremony at London's O2 arena (seen with her grandmother Agatha Dawson on stage) She also scooped the first ever BRIT Award for R&B act, which is voted for by the public via Instagram and is a new standalone genre category after musicians and fans complained about R&B being conjoined with the pop last year. Raye also won Songwriter of the Year, which was announced ahead of the live ceremony, with host Clara Amfo handing her the gong in a surprise moment after her Best New Artist win.
