Mark Ronson and RAYE Join Forces For New Single “Suzanne”

The Duo Will Also Appear on the Soundtrack For The Film F1, Due Out June 27 via Warner Bros.

Jun 13, 2025

Legendary producer Mark Ronson and acclaimed singer/songwriter RAYE have shared a new single, “Suzanne,” via Sony Music UK/RCA Records. Check out the video for the new single below.

This is the first time the two have collaborated and they quickly have another song on the way. A RAYE track called “Grandma Calls The Boy Bad News,” also produced by Ronson, will be featured on the soundtrack for the new film F1. The official soundtrack F1 THE ALBUM will release June 27 via Warner Bros.

Luxury Swiss watchmaker Audemars Piguet brought Ronson and RAYE together for this song, which is part of the brand’s AP x Music series to celebrate its 150th anniversary. Ronson and RAYE are both Audemars Piguet brand ambassadors.

Ronson spoke on the track in a press release. “I’ve admired RAYE’s artistry for years now, watching her evolution from songwriter to the powerhouse artist she’s become. When Audemars Piguet brought us together through their APxMusic program, it felt like the stars were aligning at exactly the right moment.”

“Everything about how this song came to exist, and this moment with Mark and AP, feels meant to be,” RAYE adds. “I used to work in Mark Ronson’s London studio when I was a baby artist focusing on my songwriting craft, and always dreamed of the day I could one day work with the musical genius that is Ronson. From the feeling in my heart that the song should be called ‘Suzanne’ within minutes of hearing the music Mark created, to learning of Suzanne Audemars and the joy I feel in my bones whenever I play this song in my headphones, the overwhelming consensus of emotions is gratitude and pride.”

RAYE, who was nominated for three GRAMMYs this year with her debut album My 21st Century Blues, will continue a festival run through the summer, playing at Bonnaroo and Glastonbury among others. She is often compared to Amy Winehouse and Ronson was also Winehouse’s producer.

This is Ronson’s first release this year, but he has most recently teamed up with Lorne Michaels to act as an executive producer for SNL50: The Homecoming Concert. He is due to release his memoir, NIGHT PEOPLE: How to Be a DJ in 90’s New York City, on September 16th.
