Life, as far as sales are concerned, must be sweet for Bruno Mars.

Sending his second LP ‘Unorthodox Jukebox‘ to #2 on this week’s Billboard 200 tally, sales of 187,339 have ensured his chances of suffering’sophomore slump’ slim to none.

 Ever the artiste, Rita Ora has developed quite the knack of taking original songs and reworking them with impressive results. From Frank Ocean‘s ‘Swim Good‘ to Destiny’s Child ‘Say My Name’, very few songs can say they haven’t received the Ora treatment, and last night- Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Swimming Pools‘ joined that list.

Performing the song during her ‘Highline Ballroom’ set last night, it’s safe to say it marked one of her best performances thus far. So good, we hope it becomes a staple in her live show.
