New single from Rita Ora called "Poison". https://instagram.com/p/2moDbCxs_Q The radio premiere will be next week in the UK. Also, if it's taken into consideration that her previous single "I Will Never Let You Down" was pushed in the States, I guess this one will be too, despite there isn't any information about it yet.

So I am guessing that means her highly anticipated single "Testosterone" is either shelved or coming out later?

New single from Rita, hopefully it's enough to ignite a U.S. Release

Any idea how it's going to sound. This girl has great management. I still see her in the tabloids and some magazines constantly. She only has 2 very minor hits and her Iggy duet correct? Oh she had a small cameo in "Fifty Shades Of Grey" too. Still??

This is growing on me since the first listen. Parts of it sound like a mixture Kelly Clarkson's latest album and Ellie Goulding. It has a heavy mid-80s soundtrack sound like Ellie's latest hit too. This wouldn't sound out of place on the 9 1/2 Weeks soundtrack.
Is this Luke? I see similarities to Martin too, but he jumps out first.

This is another jam from Rita! I definitely think this song will be a grower where it doesn't do much on first listen, but after a few plays it will sound even better.

It might work in the UK, but this won't work as a first single in the US.

1) Get that Frizz Ease product placement coin, white Riri 2) I dont get the plot. She becomes a model and then her boyfriend goes gay for the photographer?

I love the video and the Warhol/Sedgwick storyline that inspired it. The song is growing on me.
Something about the very beginning of the 1st verse reminds me of "Starfish And Coffee."

I don't think it will reach atop next week in the UK and it's going to be hurt by streaming to be honest. That said, it may be blocked by "Are You With Me" by Lost Frequencies and "Not Letting Go" by Tinie Tempah featuring Jess Glynne, which both of them are also ahead of it on iTunes.
