Rita Ora is wasting approximately no time lighting a match under the campaign for her new album ‘You & I.’

The chart-topper’s third studio effort and its July 14 was announced earlier today (April 19) and the media maven has unlocked its latest single ‘Praising You’ hours later.

Built around a sample of Fatboy Slim‘s classic 1998 smash ‘Praise You,’ the track is billed as a feature with the Dance giant.

Speaking on the release, Ora said:

“To not only get Norman (Fatboy Slim)’s stamp of approval but to actually collaborate with him and pay homage to such a massive song from my childhood was truly a surreal experience. I think this record means something different for everyone, but from my perspective, it’s about praising your loved ones and really celebrating those relationships. I’m incredibly honoured that we get to breathe new life into the song and re-introduce it to a whole new generation.”

Speaking of the rework, Norman (Fatboy Slim) added:

“From a chance meeting late one night in the Naughty Corner at Glastonbury a friendship and collaboration grew that on paper may look unlikely. Yet here it is, and it has a life of its own!”
