The third "very raw" album by Rita Ora will be published early next year. Finally - the singer has laid out some concrete details for this album. Fans have been waiting for so long already, and were even worried that it will not materialize, especially since she also hinted that she's thinking about quitting.
When asked what she was doing in Albania, she responded that she's recording a new album thats dropping on January. The 'Fifty Shades' actress advised her admirers to consume a few alcoholic beverages before listening to her new music. She stated that she wants something that is very raw for this third album. The "Anywhere" singer spent time in her home country of Albania working on the highly personal follow-up to 2018's "Phoenix," and she has promised fans to provide more songs and videos.
The 31-year-old pop artist acknowledges that she has suffered with the "very intense" strain of being in the public eye and that her close friends and family have helped her persevere through times when she wanted to stop her career.
Ora, who recently allegedly wed filmmaker Taika Waititi, is cited in the Bizarre column of The Sun newspaper as saying that she sometimes felt like quitting. She said she often found herself wondering if what she was doing was still worthwhile.
She also said that being famous can become quite difficult, because she's becoming a role model which has its own perks and pressures. The singer said that becoming a role model can be stressful when all she wants is to be someone who makes music. To be followed by millions is mentally exhausting, sometimes, she hinted.
While fans are eager for new music from their idol, some have insulted her rendition of the iconic Kate Bush song "Running Up That Hill."
During her performance at the Rock In Rio MultiShow festival in Brazil, the 31-year-old artist covered the popular 1985 single by Bush.
In a footage provided by BCharts on Twitter, the singer is audible in performing the chorus. However, a cursory examination of the comments reveals that fans of the original are not impressed.
"That's dreadful. Just because lots of notes exist, it doesn't mean you need to try and include them all in every song. You certainly don't need to try it if you're as bad as this," one critic said.
