Must Hear: Rita Ora – ‘Love And War (Ft J.Cole)’

Published: Wednesday 26th Sep 2012 by David

With the US launch of her debut album ‘ORA’ soon approaching, That Grape Juice shines a light on one of Rita Ora’s stand out cuts on the LP, ‘Love And War‘.

Featuring ‘Nobody’s Perfect’ lyricist J.Cole, the Ester Dean creation serves as one of the album’s strongest pieces, featuring the vocals Ora is fast becoming renown, an infectious hook and a melody far stronger than that held by ‘R.I.P’ and its dance sister ‘How We Do‘.

In short, we’re hoping this is a single. So, until fans get word that it will…

Enjoy below…

      • THE NAVY SLAYS THE HELL OUT OF YOUR STANBASE AND YOU WILL JUST HAVE TO MOTHERFUCKING DEAL!!! September 26, 2012

        B**** > A SEAT AWAITS > _/

        I COMMENTED BECAUSE RITA IS A FLOP AND I DON’T GIVE A S*** WHO AGREES OR DOESN’T.

        GOOD “F******” BYE.

    • PERTHBOT September 26, 2012

      Rita is about love and positivity so she’d probably hug you if she ever met you.
      She’s a lovely girl who’s living her dream and who will win because she’s got raw natural talent. I think that’s why you’re angry, because the person you support can’t sing.

      • kelly September 26, 2012

        The person we support can sell and Rita cannot. She is not about love, she is a bitter , envious old ass who is jealous that a gorgeous black girl like Rih is winning and ruling, while she rots at the bottom of the charts – or the USA — she cannot even get her songs on our chart. She has no raw talent and even in the UK, she has been slayed by REAL talented newcomers like Emelie Sande and Liane La havas / Lana del ray.

      • BEY-FLOP September 26, 2012

        BUT >>>>>>>>>>

        The person that the Navy supports is currently #8 on the U.S I-Tunes Chart with her song that only debuted 3 1/2 hours ago.

        So…… As @PERTHBOT >>>>>>> Have a seat H**. But first, #ShineBrightLikeADiamond!!!

    • QUEEN RIHANNA September 26, 2012

      YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

      @THE NAVY COMMENTERS.

      I LOVE HOW THESE INSIGNIFICANT RITA STANS ARE TRYING TO ATTACK US.

      FALL BACK B******.

      QUEEN RIHANNA SLAYS AND YA’LL WILL JUST HAVE TO DEAL.

      RITA IS A DESPERATE HOW WHO HAS SUNKEN TO THE POINT OF COPYING QUEEN RIHANNA’S TWITTER POSTS JUST TO GAIN SOME RELEVANY OVERSEAS. LMFAOOOOOOO.

      #Bye. 😉

  2. Change September 26, 2012

    This song Is the first song I fell inlove with when I heard the album and She slays this LIVE!!!!!!!!!!! Random: I would love for her to do an acoustic album I like her live versions more

  3. IKNOWTHETRUTH September 26, 2012

    This is by far one of my favorite tracks from the album. She and J. Cole would make a great couple in the video and if given the single treatment I feel he should get a full verse. This will certainly appeal stateside. It’s got a hip hop/pop/R&B twist. A winner.

    • yeah September 26, 2012

      wow if that’s the case boredom its something about her music that spells boring.

  4. DOSSOME September 26, 2012

    GREAT VOICE + WRONG SOUND = FLOP….These “nice” songs she’s putting out won’t help get people to buy her album,not even with heavy promotion

  5. kelly September 26, 2012

    YAWN This is dated and wack. Her voice sounds wack and J cole is no drake. Give it up, . Anway Ora was released in the USA on tuesday, we will se where it debut.

    • JP September 26, 2012

      Agreed. Both of these artists are grossly overrated. J Cole messed up both Beyonce’s “Party” and Keri Hilson’s “Buy You.” Both songs were perfection with their original featured artist.

      Glad the hype around J. Cole has subsided because he is substandard.

  6. GREEN EYED BEAUTY!!(LIKE RIHANNA) :) September 26, 2012

    WACK!!!! NOW LETS GET BACK TO DIAMONDS!!!!

  7. September 26, 2012

    smh another rihanna b-side. poor girl. roc nation needs to let her find herself as an artist and do rita ora, musically and image wise. cause aint nobody got time for white rihanna/tanned gwen stefani with beyonce in the face.

    • kelly September 26, 2012

      No, they need to drop this h** and send her back to the UK. There are plenty more talented african american girls who deserve all the chances she has been given.

      • September 26, 2012

        she is talented enough to have a successful career. all she needs is the right sound. and her own look.

  8. Settle4U September 26, 2012

    OH YES RITA!
    I DONT WANNA FIGHT ANYMOOOOORE

    Sang girl. Show the cheap Diamond girl how a real SINGER does it.

    • GREEN EYED BEAUTY!!(LIKE RIHANNA) :) September 26, 2012

      B**** DIAMONDS IS AT 8 ON THE US I TUNES!!! AND WHERE IS RITA FLOPA AT?

  9. kelly September 26, 2012

    She even singing with autotune in parts of it; her vocals are not unique, it sounds like Channl U version of RNB from 10 years ago.

    3 years, millions and all the big names for this piece s***.

  10. Adam September 26, 2012

    LMFAO at the poll options. I can’t at them. It’s s***. add that to your poll.

  11. credits September 26, 2012

  17. NATALIE September 26, 2012

    Seriously who dumb enough to vote in this BIASED poll. The song is trash just like her. Even my hunny J Cole couldn’t save it.

    ANYWAY IN OTHER NEWS, DIAMONDS IS SMASHING WORLDWIDE!

  18. STILLINLOVE September 26, 2012

    Diamonds is f****** trash. Don’t let the haters get you down Rita, you got the King and Queen on your side and they know that Riwhorena is going to fade out soon.

    • GREEN EYED BEAUTY!!(LIKE RIHANNA) :) September 26, 2012

      Meanwhile DIAMONDS IS A TOP TEN HIT AND IT JUST CAME OUT 4 HOURS AGO!!! LOLOLOL SHINE BRIGHT LIKE A DIAMOND!!!!

      • barbie September 26, 2012

        and Taylor was #1 in how many minutes, not hours?

  19. Riri is queen and you hater ass b****** will deal September 26, 2012

    LMFAO @ the $$$$ spent pushing this Rih-ject. If ORA is #1 in the US it’s cuz Jay and Bey bought up 98% of the copies.

    • guesswho September 26, 2012

      Yea you American b****** just like if Rihanna goes #1 her people are buying the slot also. Why do you think she sent her song to the radio station first. You Americans do payola alot. Americans are very hateful and heartless people. If they can do s*** like this to there fellow American then they will do it to a non-American.

      • Stephen September 26, 2012

        Your’re right Americans are very spikeful, hateful, heartless back stabbing people in the world.

  20. Azalean September 26, 2012

    YAY Slayrita winning the poll.

  21. numero_uno September 26, 2012

    this poll is garbage. TGJ – you guys crack me up.

  22. XoMoDe September 26, 2012

    All around better than Rihanna.

    • SHADE=DENIAL September 27, 2012

      Yeah she is, at flopping!!

  23. kelly September 26, 2012

    LOL at Karmin fans ripping the hell out of Rita Ora on twitter last night.

    It all started when Rita Ora lost the cover of Rolling stone to Karmin – despite have 1.3 million followers on twitter ( 250k for karmin) having more promo / exposure; having the whole KARDASHIAN family begging on twitter; and beyonce begging on her blog to vote rita to win. She lost.

    So, Ritabots, when to verbally abuse karmin fans………….but they fought back! Calling Rita Out on her no hits; clone rihanna self and pathetic attempt to clone Rita’s tweet. LOL That ” I love my job tweet ” made it back to Rih and she liked it on instagram. So, now the teenage American white girls who buy Karmim ( they have sold over a million ) think Rita Ora is an ugly, pitiful rihanna old ass nobody and they went in on her too.

    All Rita Ora has managed to do is p*** people off. That is part of the reason why she is not selling. She needs to find another career, cos singing is not it.

    • kelly September 26, 2012

      The hatred for Rita Ora is growing., Even young teenage white girls hate Rita Too. Karmin fans Ripped Rita to shreds.

      LOL LOL at pitiful Rita Ora being reduced to performing to kids, teens and construction workers at Wichita ( kansas) technical college. And no one in the audience looked impressed. They were just were dragged off the street to listen to this h**.

    • EnRanc September 26, 2012

      You have psychological issues. The way you live in Rita Ora’s vaginal walls negatively obsessing about her indicates some kind of disorder. No one functioning person should obsess over a pop singer as much as you do her. What are you, bipolar? Something is definitely wrong. My guess is that they used to tease the hell out of you when you were in school and to this day you still have no friends.

      • kelly September 26, 2012

        the way you obsess over Rihanna , but, unlike Rita she is getting stronger and bigger and Rita cannot even give her singles away for free.

      • EnRanc September 26, 2012

        Like I said, clearly you have OCD and are probably manic-depressive. You’re pretty much a total fruitcake and I wouldn’t trade places with you for anything.

  24. kelly September 26, 2012

    Well done for the Karmin fans for ripping that piece of s*** to shreds. she has some god given right to be in the industry cos she knows jayz? Well ! Karmin showed her jayz or no jay z – you are nothing.

    Karmin is winning

    Rihanna is winning

    And Rita is loosing.

  25. kelly September 26, 2012

    Did y’all know she is going on an American tour with Iggy Azalia and Havan brown?

    The irony is that Havana Brown has had a bigger hit in America than Rita and Iggy combined.

  26. DMWN September 26, 2012

    Kelly is mad because Rita is:

    1) Younger than Rihanna.
    2) MUCH prettier than Rihanna.
    3) Has a MUCH, MUCH better voice than Rihanna.
    4) Is priority #1 at Roc Nation.

    Heh.

    Hey Kelly/Lax…
    Rita is better than Rihanna! 😉

    • Riri is queen and you hater ass b****** will deal September 26, 2012

      Rita won’t be #1 priority any longer if she keeps flopping.

    • GREEN EYED BEAUTY!!(LIKE RIHANNA) :) September 26, 2012

      Awwwww keep dreaming maybe rita will get a hit and sell 37 million and 146 million worldwide and have sold out tours and make 53 millionni 1 year!!!!!

    • kelly September 26, 2012

      Younger – Rih is ony 2 years older and black don’t crack, Rih looks younger that old haggered white women with lines, crows feets and wrinkle around her mouth – she claims 21? More like 32

      Prettier – Rihanna has been on the cover of the kind of magazine like Anjelina and Halle – in fact Halle has had the cover of America vogue twice – and Rih will match that.

      Talent – That is why she cloned Rih whole music style form past era’s and sounds like an out dated Idol contestant.

      Priority at roc nation? Great.!Rihanna is DEF JAM – THEIR BIGGEST SELLING ACT IN HISTORY – DEF JAM WILL NEVER HAVE AN ACT AS BIG RIH.

      Rih is better than Rita and the career, money and fame speak for itself.

      • kelly September 26, 2012

        THta is why Rita Ora is pissed of mad.

  27. Mobwife: TeamBreezy Always b!+@#es September 26, 2012

    LOL at the POLL! @SAM you are too funny with that!

    I actually like Rita’s voice but this song is just okay IMO!! Not bad just okay!

  28. Mobwife: TeamBreezy Always b!+@#es September 26, 2012

    p.s. stop the Rita – Rihanna comparisons. They are 2 different type artists.

    • James227 September 26, 2012

      @Mobwife

      If these f**** whom used to compare Rihanna to Chris they will compare anyone against Rihanna.

  29. Nik September 26, 2012

    Love J. Cole, the song was ok but something about her voice didn’t sound right. Maybe it was the audio.

  30. RLS September 26, 2012

    Dear grape juice, we don’t care.

    Signed, America.

    • ENOUGH ONIKA September 26, 2012

      Amen

  31. ENOUGH ONIKA September 26, 2012

    No……#EnoughSaid

  32. Monstarebel September 26, 2012

    Are we really supposed to care the song is average her voice doesn’t even give the song life why them verses so dry girl?

    • Ren September 26, 2012

      You’re a f*****.

  33. Donna Fenty September 26, 2012

    I Love J. Cole but I still don’t like Whora. I don’t intend to anyways, well or else she gets another career maybe she could enroll for Hockey 😀

  34. RoyalKev September 26, 2012

    I don’t keep Rita in mind often, but a lot of times when I check her out it’s worth while. I think this is a good song! Rita only has to continue to be consistent and her time will come. Some individuals don’t become stars overnight, but Rita’s showing great promise. Anything is possible, she’s in the right hands.

    http://www.thepagewithroyalkev.com

  35. Beyonce’s Weave September 26, 2012

    OMG This song has Rihanna – Rated R rejected song written all over it. It’s good though but this chick seriously needs to find her own sound. I just don’t get it (her copying of Rihanna), I seriously don’t get it.

    • RichnBlack11(Beyonce keep em MAD September 26, 2012

      just like diamonds is a rejected sia song

      • kelly September 26, 2012

        Sia is a songwriter so how is this rejected? She write this ong just for Rihanna and no one else.

      • Benron (King Of The Navy) September 26, 2012

        @RichAndBlack you’re so stupid its funny!

  36. Bey Fan September 26, 2012

    Ehhhh I dont know about this one . Not a bad song. But definitely nuttin to write home about…..

    I just haven’t heard anything worth while from any artist lately.

  37. TAYLOR September 26, 2012

    LOL there’s enough room for Rita in the industry, most people talk about her because they like Rihanna or Beyonce, she’s actually decent and so is the song. Moat comments are about her and not really the song SMH. This Generation of fans are to High school for me all popularity. Rihanna makes nice songs i like her, but theirs no denying Rita does have a better singing voice then her. no hate on Rih. i just keep it real. i wish other people would. instead of hating on blogs and secretly liking the person you hating on behind close doors. but everyone has a right to their opinion so carry on LOL

    • kelly September 26, 2012

      And I can name 20 singers who have a better voice than Rita Ora, what is your point b****?

      • TAYLOR September 26, 2012

        LOL Keisha voice “please don’t be rude and call me a b****”
        all jokes aside what was the point of what you said, beyond you agreeing with me, regardless of who sings better then Rita. Theirs always someone better then the next Kelly. Your either young and immature, or old and really sad. you will probably deny both, but you will think to yourself and wonder why your act this way. It’s not your fault Kelly, this comes from lack of parenting or you can just be a product of your environment, I don’t blame you I blame society. Either way I’m not even a Rita fan do I enjoy some of her music yes. I follow whats real, not the majority, unless the majority is real.

      • RichnBlack11(Beyonce keep em MAD September 26, 2012

        and we can name 1000 singer that sing better than Rihanna so what’s your point sybil

      • kelly September 26, 2012

        And I will call you a b****, Taylor * in my tammy voice * B**** B**** and more B****.

        Anyway. Rih is number 1all over the world and Rita is not or will ever be. * smiles*

      • TAYLOR September 26, 2012

        @RichnBlack11
        LOL
        let’s not stoop to the level of the ignorant * Taylor whispers* even if its true lol

      • TAYLOR September 26, 2012

        Kelly i knew you was gonna do that Tammi voice you so predictable even thru a screen i can read you. SMH time for more leading and less following this ain’t Twiitter girl.

  38. kelly September 26, 2012

    Rih has debuted at number 1 on French itunes. Rita Oar has not a single song on french itunes despite going to Franch many times to promote her wrinkles and rihjected rih tracks from 3 years.

    • TAYLOR September 26, 2012

      Both girls have Talent, point being it’s not always about charting, Example Nicki as a Rapper or Pop artist what ever you guys consider her, Charts but some say she isn’t talented, and that their are better artist then her that aren’t getting recognition.

      • kelly September 26, 2012

        They said Rita Ora was coming to dethrone Rih, now Rita Ora is on course to getting dropped while rih rules the charts all over the world.

        * smiles *

      • TAYLOR September 26, 2012

        They as in regular citizens, who have their own opinion and are in titled to their opinion said that Rita would dethrone someone who never was announced the throne all because they didn’t like Rihanna, and in return you talk about Rita in Rihannas defense. I get it. My main point in my first post is i jut don’t like when people use a artist they love as a reason to dislike another artist doesn’t make sense, so you calling me a b**** like i dissed yo girl Rih was dumb and ignorant. But you are the person i was talking bout, and that point you asked me about u proved it by saying “They said Rita Ora was coming to dethrone Rih” SMH… as PINK said ” stupid girl” or boy never know these days.
        * smiles * LOL

      • kelly September 26, 2012

        Well, f*** opinions. Let’s talk facts! She did not dethrone Rih – she made her bigger and now she might not have a deal by the end of the year. HER LP got pushed back.

        So, Who wins? * smiles * Rih does!

      • TAYLOR September 26, 2012

        I’m mean that’s cute and all, she’s doing good overseas n UK which is debatably the first or second biggest market so she’s not losing to bad. Do i care is she was? No i like some of her songs and all not a fan tho. and since were saying f*** opinion should we f*** yours lol

  39. S****** Blonde September 26, 2012

    Horrible.

  40. kelly September 26, 2012

    The jury is in!

    It is a bad crappy outdate song, with dry xfactor vocals and will flop.

    Court dismissed.

    • kelly September 26, 2012

      And case closed

    • TAYLOR September 26, 2012

      Oh your a judge that’s cool. How do you like it?

      And how bout we be less Predictable and not say something smart and sarcastic in court terminology.

      for example you would probably say ” i like it and you dismissed too, you know”

      Verdicts in girl and you have been convicted of being predictable

      • kelly September 26, 2012

        blah blah blah blah your incoherent rants cannot stop Diamonds smashing global charts, while Rita Ora rots ,

        * smiles*

      • TAYLOR September 26, 2012

        Girl I like Diamonds i’m playing it now. thats y your so pressed because you think i dont like Rihanna. SMH… all that’s why you wont win this debate with me i’m not going against Rih I’m im talking about you bloggers lol

  41. JAZMINE SULLIVANS FAN September 26, 2012

    Sam, u proved ur childish as hell writing this poll…

    • TAYLOR September 26, 2012

      I wish Jaz didn’t stop doing music, or did you just stay behind scenes and write? because i need another album. I know off topic but yo name was just their haha

      • JAZMINE SULLIVANS FAN September 26, 2012

        I use this name becuz I love her
        🙂

  42. MC September 26, 2012

    NO

  43. My hip, my back September 26, 2012

    She look a mess in the picture in the video ! It got squished cause I’m on iPhone and she look like a muppet. But the song is okay…..

  44. soulmusiclover September 26, 2012

    TGJ where is the dislike button for this song! you are trying too hard to make people like her! honestly, she has a good voice, still not unforgettable, but she can sing, but her songs are not good at all! or maybe it’s just me

    • TAYLOR September 26, 2012

      LOL i thought i was the only one that seen that

  45. straightothepoint September 26, 2012

    it s funny how we cannot pick that we dont like the song AND she that we dont find her talented lol her songs are sooooooooo boring she ddnt pay enough to get those hits she wanted…. nice try tho…

  46. CURLY SUE September 26, 2012

    DOES SHE SING THROUGH HER NOSE? NOT A GOOD SOUND RITA!

  47. Rih still got the haters pressed and making up lies September 26, 2012

    I think the US version of her album will end up getting shelved. I don’t see too many people outside the UK wanting to use her.

  48. charmingdate scam September 26, 2012

    so beautiful you are!
