Following his album Spicy Beats, which charted #2 in the "Digital Albums" Category and #15 behind Miley Cyrus and ahead of Bruce Springsteen in "Top Current Albums" all across Canada according to the SoundScan's weekly reports, Raj Ramayya is up to a new journey with a new concept album, titled Spice Age Adventures, set to be released on August 18th, 2023.
The album Spice Age Adventures follows our hero Ravi, a shy, socially
inept medical school student, who drops out of his studies to fulfill
his ambitions of becoming a singer-songwriter but ends up driving a taxi
in a cold, bleak Canadian city to pay his bills. After getting dumped
by his beautiful Indian fiancée—who herself had grandiose dreams of
becoming a Bollywood movie star—he slips into a "boom-boom soma" street
narcotic-fueled depression. Whilst in one of his "boom-boom somas", Ravi starts having narcotic-fueled dreams of
being abducted by a green extraterrestrial girl with a silver mouth. On
her planet, spice and music do not exist! Ravi writes her a love song
beseeching her "take me to your planet." Is he dreaming, or is this
really happening? Is he in love, or is this a fantasy? Will they make
curry in outer space?
