Rita Ora has released the single “Ask & You Shall Receive”, ahead of her performance at the Mighty Hoopla Festival this Sunday, 2 June, in London.
Co-written by Raye and produced by German (Oliver Peterhof), “Ask & You Shall Receive” is a summery, infectious floor filler infused with carpe diem spirit.
Rita says: “The song is full of upbeat, summery vibes and is about seizing the moment romantically and diving straight in with that special someone. It was co-written by the amazing Raye, which feels like such a full circle moment, as I have so many amazing memories from when we were on the road together for the Phoenix tour.”
The accompanying video, directed by Dano Cerny (SIA, Labrinth, Demi Lovato) and shot in LA, is set in a nefarious 24-hour laundromat and draws inspiration from the iconic 1985 Levis 501 commercial starring Nick Kamen.
Rita Ora’s multi-platinum music career has won her commercial and critical acclaim with 13 UK Top 10 singles and four UK Number One singles. In the UK she was among the first to receive a BRIT Billion award after surpassing the landmark of one billion career UK streams. While in the US, Rita’s acclaimed singles and star-studded collaborations have earned her a #3 Billboard Hot 100 song, 7 Top 10 hits on Billboard’s Dance Club Songs Chart, 5 of which reached #1, and 6 Top 20 singles on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs Chart.
Her latest album, “You & I”, landed the coveted #1 spot on the UK Official Independent Albums Chart, was the highest new entry from a female act in the UK Official Albums Chart, (debuting at #6), and was summarized by Rolling Stone as “a collection of stunning love songs.” The album features the #1 US Dance Radio hit “Praising You (feat. Fatboy Slim),” which PAPER declared “a house banger” and “You Only Love Me,” for which Billboard praised Rita as “an expert in the type of sleekly designed, electro-tinged pop on display.”
“You & I” follows previous releases: “Bang”, a collaboration EP with GRAMMY-winning DJ and producer Imanbek; “Phoenix”, which has amassed over four billion streams and spawned four platinum singles; and “Ora”, her certified platinum debut album, which entered at #1 on the UK charts. Rita’s acclaimed singles and star-studded collaborations have earned her seven Top 10 hits on Billboard’s Dance Club Songs Chart, five of which reached #1, six Top 20 singles on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs Chart, and a #3 Billboard Hot 100 song.
