Rita Ora is more than getting by with a little with a little help from her friends. She looks set to thrive with them too.
The British hitmaker is putting the finishing touches to her second album – which is her first globally – with intent to release this Fall.
Having given a masses a taste with UK top 10 ‘Your Song,’ which was penned by Ed Sheeran, Ora has revealed that more major names in the mix.
Speaking to Nylon, the 26-year-old confirmed that 2 Chainz joins her on the Atlantic Records set. Also on-board are Coldplay’s Chris Martin, MØ, and Charli XCX.
Explaining her approach to collaboration on the LP, Ora said:
“I’ve just got the record full of my friends. It explains my last three years of being stuck in limbo-land, coming back out with a fresh start, and making songs for people to just relax to.”
Of course by “limbo” the singer is referring to her legal wrangle with former label Roc Nation – a tussle that saw her unable to release music.
With that all in rearview, it seems Rita is speeding ahead with her comeback.
We’re buzzed to hear what she’s been baking; are you?
Is she gonna discuss how that album got shelved cause she cheated on Calvin?
That part! While she’s trying to play innocent!
I love Rita’s voice… hopefully with the right material, she’ll be able to make some more waves bc contrary to the petty stan wars, there’s space for everyone… especially for those who can actually hold a note ☕
No matter what she keeps it moving vocally!!
Are these her friends or “friends”?
lol my thoughts exactly
Nope, I am not. I have nothing against Rita and remain unbothered about her hoeish ways but i just am unexcited by her. I don’t think she’s that good a singer, i don’t think much of her personality, i don’t like her dress sense and most of all her music sucks.
Can me have an update on Jessie J & Alexandra Burke please
I can do without Mø and Charli . Frank Ocean ? Calvin Harris ? David Guetta ? Zara Larsson ? Nicki Minaj ? Drake ? Katy Perry ? JLo ? A rock song with Harry Styles ? that’s people I want to hear with her
You won’t be hearing anything with Calvin Harris. They had a bad breakup
I want her to happen, BUT who is paying for all these artists to be on her project and she hasn’t popped off yet? I don’t want her to be, but in the States, she is famous for nothing. Yes she did release a few songs, Oscar nominated song and hosted a few shows, but dang she is really just famous for being famous .
she could recruit Jesus and the three wise men. she will still flop
