Last Updated:
In her latest interview, she revealed that the dance banger is just a teaser of what's to come on her upcoming fourth studio album.
Rita Ora, singer and actress, has been making waves since the release of her latest single Heat last month. After a quiet spell following her last album in 2023, Rita is now aiming to reconnect with fans and reclaim her place in the spotlight. In a recent interview, she revealed that the sultry dance track is just a glimpse of what's to come on her upcoming fourth studio album.
Rita Ora, who recently performed at the Wimbledon celebration, had a brief chat with People Magazine on the sidelines of the event. Speaking about her new song, Rita Ora said, 'The whole theme of this record is really about being instant [and] really direct with my messaging and stripping everything back behind me, production-wise. This energy with 'Heat' was so perfect just to get people ready for the new character."
The track was co-written by Troye Sivan, and Rita Ora believes they have a lot in common. 'I love his sexuality and the celebration he has with that. I was really inspired for me and my womanhood to really kind of celebrate my sexuality, my sexiness and get back into my body, you know? And this really just embodied that," said Rita.
Moreover, she mentioned, 'I just feel as if I have so many things to sort of remind the public with, especially my new fans. I kind of love the idea of explaining who I am again." The accompanying music video for Heat, directed by Justin Daashuur Hopkins, was shot on Miami Beach. The visuals were reportedly inspired by photographer Martin Parr's work, with technicolour tones used throughout the beach-set production.
Meanwhile, the singer enthralled everyone at The Hill in New York for the Wimbledon event. From the time she arrived on stage, Rita Ora had the audience singing along to songs ranging from 2012's 'Hot Right Now" to 2024's 'Ask and You Shall Receive" and beyond.
