“It feels really awesome to finally pass it on and let it fly.LION BABE is a New York bred funk and soul duo comprised of multidisciplinary artist Jillian Hervey and producer/DJ Lucas Goodman, (also known as Astro Raw.) The pair are known for their unique sound and look and associate themselves with the term ‘futuristic nostalgia’ to describe their genre. “…We’re like, how will we ever put this out? How will we ever clear this? But as time has gone by, we were able to replay the sample we were able to get cleared by Barry Gordy and all the other writers”, Goodman explained. Sampling Jackson 5’s “Maybe Tomorrow.” “Thank you, Thank You” is less than two minutes long but the nostalgic feel serves as the perfect outro to Rainbow Child. Respectively, Goodman resonates with the closing track “Thank you, Thank You,” It’s a record that was written and recorded several years ago but remained in the duo’s collection of unreleased music. No matter what stage of life you’re in,” Hervey declared. “I think it just has a lot to do with the root of what this album represents, and why child kind of made its way into the title…We are all still children walking the earth.

“In my eyes it really - I don’t know, it affects me in a way that songs that we’ve written have never affected me,” she expressed. Hervey describes “Radiant Child” as one of the most profound songs she’s ever written. Lion Babe’s personal favorite records are “Radiant Child” and “Thank you, Thank You”.
