Rita Ora returns with her third studio album ‘You & I.’
Led by singles ‘You Only Love Me,’ ‘Praising You (ft. Fatboy Slim),’ and most recent effort ‘Don’t Think Twice,’ the project has been touted as a conceptual ode to the singer’s real-life love story with husband Taika Watiti.
Speaking on the record (which was executive produced by hitmaker Oak Felder), 32-year-old Ora explains how it’s her most personal effort yet:
“The ‘You’ in You & I represents more than just the man I love. It’s my mum, my friends, my fans, and in some ways, it represents the relationship I have with myself. This album has been like my diary for the past two years, and I’m so thrilled you finally get to hear it.”
‘You & I’ follows 2018’s ‘Phoenix’ album and Ora’s 2021 EP ‘Bang.’

The album is solid and you can tell it was def done during the pandemic as it sounds slightly dated lol. But it has some nice radio friendly songs like Unfeel It, Waiting For You and You and I. Don’t Think Twice is my fave right now.
It’s surprisingly good. Phoenix is still my favorite tho.
I feel something different every time she sings a ballad. “You & I” might be my favorite with the 80s synth in the background.
Flop!
She’s nothing but Chris Brown’s dead weight, no thanks
The imagery and cover are dreadful but it’s a very solid and cohesive love album
Feeling bad for Rita knowing this’ll be her first flop album
Rita issa word that rhymes with chop.
