As Pop puppets go, few come as overrated as Rihanna.

However, in recent years, the star’s narrative is becoming less Pinocchio and more power.

Grammy nominated, Urban gospel superstars 21:03 are back with their highly anticipated album ‘Outsiders.’

Rita Ora is on a mission.

Since blazing onto the scene in 2012, the Roc Nation priori has made a name for herself globally by way of music, movies, and endless endorsements.

And while the aforementioned have established her name in the minds of the masses, it has given birth to the view among some that she’s more notable for being famous than her music.

Keen to emphasise that she knows what she’s doing, the 24-year-old – whose new album is due later this year – opened up on the topic during an interview on HOT 97 this morning.
