Rita Ora is back with new single ‘Ask & You Shall Receive.’

A seismic summer anthem, the track was produced by German who co-wrote the song with multi-BRIT Award winner RAYE.

Premiering almost a year after the release of the multihyphenate’s ‘You & I’ album, the dance-jam sees the star officially kick off her next project cycle with the instantly infectious cut.

Kehlani is using her platform to shed light on the ongoing conflict in Gaza – a crisis the GRAMMY nominee expressed staunch disappointment in her celebrity colleagues for remaining widely silent on.

“You can’t stop for a second and recognize that … nothing we do has a f—ing purpose without people and you can’t turn the f— around and reach back for people? You can’t speak? Disgusting,” she said about her industry peers in regard to the Israel-Hamas war in the emotional clip lifted to social media on Monday (May 27).

Proving she’s willing to back her words up with action, Lani followed her impassioned speech by announcing merchandise set to accompany her next single – the follow-up to ‘After Hours‘ – will see 100% of its proceeds disbursed to Operation Olive Branch, a “volunteer-powered grassroots collective effort” with the mission of “connecting with and amplifying Palestinian voices in an effort to support their critical needs.”
