Let’s face it, when it comes to moulding stars- very few do it better than the folk over at Roc Nation.
Indeed, after successfully turning Rihanna‘s Kool Aid into Caviar with the launch of a flawless chart assault, the company has now turned its sights to Brit Pop Princess Rita Ora, who is fast becoming one of their many cash cows.
Now, in what can only extend her lead the UK’s leading chart staple, she is on course to nabbing her fourth #1 single from her debut album, ‘ORA‘.
Details below…
While currently enjoying a peak position of #32 in the market, the launch of her nationwide concert tour has seen her new single ‘Radioactive‘ soar on a digital tip.
That’s right, by way of its current iTunes spot of #17, the Sia spawned jam has enjoyed a sales spike within the last fortnight, creeping into the Top 20 after spending a number of weeks outside of the Top 40.
If the next week sees it follow this pattern, the Pop stunner can expect to secure her fourth #1 single from ‘ORA’, after watching ‘Hot Right Now’, ‘R.I.P.’ and ‘Party’ top the overall chart last year.
Its chances of doing so are made all the more likely now that it enjoys heavy rotation on Global Radio‘s ‘Capital’, which boasts a reported 6.8 million listeners week on week.
Looks like that Rita reign just won’t let up!

@BeyWhoUWanna
The only market Beyonce does well is the US, at least Rihanna does better in a market which is not her domestic one. And please, Rihanna >> Beyonce in France. Loud – 350 000 copies, Talk That Talk 200 000 copies, Unapologetic is at 170 000 copies so far. 4 has yet to scan 100 000 copies. And Avril Lavigne >> Beyonce!!!!!
B**** bye Beyonces albums sell better WW on the whole. though. And US>>>>>>>>>UK
I cant take anyone who thinks Avril Lavigne slays Beyoncé seriously.
SAAAAMMM WHY DONE U PUT THE REPORT OF ICKI BOYFRIEND CAUGHT BUYN P****!! OMG PUT IT UP SO I CAN SL-LAY THAT B**** chile!!!….
Rita have you ever heard of the U.S.A?? cause most of them haven’t heard of you boo boo…
She’s a U.K artist, she doesn’t need the U.S
Yes the f*** she does…Save the excuses for flop honey ok. I you havn’t made it in the USA, than you really aint s***…keep telling feeding yourself those lies
@HoneyChild is right her main goal is to make it in America that’s what she & her label wants
Lmao do you see her winning in the U.K? #1 singles, #1 albums, sold out tours, etc. The U.S will come eventually but right now she’s conquering the U.K
I don’t mean to offend anyone (or do i), but the truth is the truth durrrrrling and they will deal!
Lol desperate much hun?? You tried it, but it still remains no one is checking for that loser! @ Rita Slays
I thought she was gonna end rih’s career? To clear the way for beyonce to be the number 1 black girl?
i dont minda Rita, #1s have become so redundant now,
On paper they look good but they have ZERO impact. ask anyone on the street and they probably couldnt whistle the tune to “radioactive”.
Low sales and little time at number 1.
who is she?
Weak shade won’t get people to check out your flop blog c***
Lmao Sam you do to much your bragging about this seriously? it’s at 32 let it atleast make it into the top ten before you start bragging you look pathetic… BTW I still don’t see the song on the hot 100 such a shame cause this is on of her best songs so far
It hasn’t been released yet
Hmmmm hun will it ever be released what are they waiting on?
The release date is in February. She’s focusing on the U.K now with the tour
She shoulda released it at the same time she did in the UK
Hmmmm hun will it ever be released what are they waiting on?
LOL I can’t at this comment. 😀 Nicole Scehrzinger’s singles were more successful than Rita’s in the USA :/
Rihanna fans say Nobody checking for the UK its Rihanna biggest market its what almost for months and unaflopegtic has yet to hit 700k mark or even plat? Lol and they called 4 a flop smh
Sweetie Unapologetic has sold 530 000 copies so far but 4 has yet to cross 600 000 copies even though it was released two years ago. Unapologetic will outsell it for sure.
UNA has sold 695 as of DEC in the UK. Fall back.
Nope sweetie, lets be real
UK: 528.333 copies sold (10 Weeks) [*PLATINUM]
· 1[99.357]
· 3[67.162]
· 6[60.721]
· 7[89.765]
· 6[104.492]
· 3[53.287]
· 7[17.736]
· 4[13.882]

· 5[10.575]
Yup the sales figures will be low, and she will only be number 1 for a short time, what more, she cannot break ANY OTHER MARKET LIKE RIHANNA.
BUT THE DIFFERENCE IS RIHANNA DOES WELL IN ALL 7 CONTINENTS!! ALL THE COUNTRIES RIHANNA HAS SOLD MORE THAN 4 MILLION IN: FRANCE FINLAND SWISS GERMANY UK AUS US CANADA MEXICO SPAIN TURKEY RUSSIA POLAND JAPAN CHECZ REPUBLIC ISRAEL ICELAND NORWAY SWEEDEN RITA ONLY HAS GREAT BRITIAN!!
TGJ I can see you are bored.I need my girl Rita to get her fourth number 1 but please don’t jinx it by speaking too early.Any way I hope she gets this number one.
Ps who cares about the USA for now,I mean its not like she has an album out there.I urge some members of the Navy to focus on their girl’s album sales in the US cos its not looking good right now for Riri in the states!
& you need to focus on getting this girl a hit in America
She could not drop her LP in the USA, despite numerous attempts to make it in the USA. This time last year, JAYZ made a fool of himself by taking her to z100, introducing her as the next big thing. A year later, where is she in the USA? Where are her hits in the USA?
Radioactive will be her 4th #1 single, no doubt about it. Its already in the top 20 on the U.K iTunes chart. You steamed b****** stay mad and continue to pound at your keyboard while Rita conquers the charts 😉
Rih still owns the UK.
Honey, even Kelly Clarkson album Greatest Hits Chapter 1 has sold near 500 000 copies worldwide, while Rita has yet to reach it :/
Why hasn’t this girl had a top 40 hit in America yet with all the promo this girl gets you would think she had 4 top ten singles in America which isn’t the case I heard R.I.P. on the radio once I was actually shocked but as the song went on I noticed she was only singing the hook lol they replaced her verses with drake rapping while she just sung the hook the shade is real…
Yeah, they did that in LA, They replaced her with Drake and only had Drake verse. This is on Power 106. Her voice is weak on radio – does not stand out at all. This is why she is not making it. Her voice is basic on radio and that is why she gets no airplay.
I know I laughed so hard cause I couldn’t believe she got replaced on her own song & became just the hook singer to it hahaha
Sorry but like i said NO ONE is checking for the U.K charts but flops with excuses…
I am no Rihanna stan…I just shade bishes when i feel they are deserve it…That is all
Who do you stan for? Britney? Xtina? Avril? Madonna? Whitney? Mariah?
Well i like people like Mariah…but i stan for no one like said. I’m just a shady t***** bish dragging h*** by their pony tail one flop at a time…
i respect that about you honey child that saves you from being biased as most people on here your a truth teller
Thanks @ Monstarebel xoxo
Rita spreads love. Rihanna spreads her p****.
Rob Kardasian, and the industry say other wise…
20 guys Rob Kadshian reported think the opposite. 😛
Rita Whora was meant to end rih career in 2012, so beyonce could make a comeback in 2013. Did that happened? Cos Rih is on the front cover of Rolling stone with the line ” crazy in love ‘
Call me crazy but I think this girl will make it. I mean there are stars today that we thought were going to be one-hit wonders but they’ve made it. She just might surprise us and with the navy talking about her, it only gives her more exposure.
I doubt it I think she might do decent but tbh she can’t even touch Kesha in the USA…Her handlers are trying to hard to make her into a huge star & keep failing at this point she has no hits in America so she can’t even be considered a one hit wonder
Remeber when everyone thought Rihanna was going to be gone after Pon De Reply? But then she made it so we’ll see……
But rih wasnt given big budget tours and chances like rita tho. I keep saying this but you have to have a special thing rita just doesnt have it tho! Rihanna has it rita doesnt
Hm I don’t think so. Emeli Sande couldn’t make it in the USA but Rita will? I simply refuse to believe it. :/
Talent really doesn’t play a factor, I mean Rihanna made it. Even Ke$ha made it into U.S. mainstream, so anything is possible. Nowadays, the U.S. attracts generic so who really knows? I don’t I’m just saying.
No shade.
4 #1 singles in the UK and her album sales can’t live up to that? Sounds like a Singles Artist to me doesn’t it Sam?
🙂
LOL true girl. Emeli Sande didn’t have #1 single but she has the biggest selling album of 2012 is the UK.
Even her singles dont sell alot. Rihannas singles goes gold without a video or promotions all rihs singles sell over 3 million worldwide
Rihanna navy leave Rita along ya always hate on somebody light skin just let the girl do her thing. Ya f****** with her because the color of her skin:( that’s why I feel this way about black people ya treat light skin people like s***. That’s why I have no respect for you coons.. Ya are disrespectful I would put my hands on any of you KFC eating coons.
how many copies has ORA sold in the uk sam? you like to keep tabs on rih’s album sales, how come you dont mention rita’s p*** poor sales in HER OWN F****** COUNTRY?
S*** show some respect to Rita Ora s*** let her live! I can’t believe ya are so disrespectful to light skin people. But ya love to stay in a KFC chicken line all day long and not even think about Taco Bell WTF! SHOW SOME F****** RESPECT! And don’t ya stupid ass coons talk about my album sales either cuz I ain’t trying to hear it.. Lets talk about picking cotton in a barn yard

So please do us whites all a favor stop eating at KFC the s*** ain’t good look ok. You a fat overweight black b**** who hates on white people & light skin people like Rita Ora. I ain’t trying to hear it ok:/ take you’re sloppy joe ass out the KFC line and go hop in the hot topic line and buy my debut album!
MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE SUCKED A D*** TO GET A HIT RECORD YOU FLOP ASS WHITE SALTINE B****!!!!
Rita ora wins rihanna fans hate on her whole day While rita fans are busy getting ready for her TOUR lol I mean they so threatened
Wow, congrats Rita!
The editor of this site chats s***! i bet this song doesnt get to number 1. just because its 17 at the moment they think ts gonna climb to number 1? her first 3 singles went to number 1 (the first actually as a featured artist on ‘hot rght now’. all songs were released prior to the album coming out. now that the album is out, it wont get to number 1. shine ya light scraped into top 10 and think so will this song but not more than that. plus ts funny how this site panned the song and video and now theyre actually behind it lol
I like this song. She has a great voice. She should really release an acoustic album next.
