Rita Ora

Buzz acts come and go, but the pertinent feeling amongst those that have heard the results of Rita Ora’s knockout first round in the recording studio as a bona fide solo star, accompanied by a blue chip roster of production hands, is that the effect she has locally is about to translate to the upper terrains of the global pop market. A composite of street-smarts of the metropolitan life she was schooled in and pure, urgent, otherworldly star quality, she makes for a brilliantly contradictory mix.
