Phoenix was great (deserved better) and there are a handful of great songs on it. I'll be checking whatever she releases next.

I'm all for more music from Rita. Phoenix should've been a bigger commercial success.

The problem with 'Phoenix' was how long it took for the project to eventuate. Hopefully this time it takes far less singles to get the album out - though that said, a bish had no excuse the UK was giving her hits left and right. :sip2:

I'm still mad we didn't get at least 2 albums she's recorded after her debut.

Rita is a singles artist, so they should make sure they time the singles right.

I love Rita, but all of the non-album cycle singles she's released this year have pretty much flopped. Ritual esp. deserved way better. hopefully they can turn it around again. it was just a year ago that Let You Love Me was a huge hit. and still a JAM

I will always appreciate her for giving me Anywhere but after listening to the album a few times, that is the only song I keep. I will still pay attention to her new material though!

Yeah I'm very ready for new stuff! Love her because she's a white discount Rihanna but still amazing Phoenix was amazing and I basically loved everything she's recently released especially Ritual! What a jam Hope to see high quality music like that on her next project Nice to see her not taking another 6 years for a new album

Discount Rihanna is sadly appropiate, but with original flavor Rih busy with other stuff (and not really making pop music at the moment), I'll take Rita.

I saw "third album," and... ...I completely forgot she had an album before Phoenix. It wasn't released in the US so I can see how it can be overlooked. The album is a solid project but not releasing the full version of Facemelt is still a travesty.

Facemelt is a BOP! I wish ROC would stop playing and upload the album again. It was uploaded a couple of months ago then disappeared.

Well, I guess it's good that it's not coming out this year, cause HTBL meets none of the concept themes she mentioned. She certainly has a lot of work to do.

Phoenix was a surprisingly strong album. If it had come out when long eras were still a thing, I think she could've gotten 7-8 hits out of it (it helps that some were collabs). "Velvet Rope" specifically should've been a single. Best song on the album.
I'm definitely looking forward to new music. HTBL is pretty good, but she needs to come harder.

She's currently dating Costa-Gavras's son Romain Gavras, who has directed music videos such as "Nothing Breaks Like a Heart", "No Church in the Wild", and M.I.A.'s "Bad Girls".

Yassss thanks for posting that. I rarely visit her Spotify page and would’ve never known otherwise lol!
Great debut, I remember spinning frequently in junior of college.
FACEMELT(!!), Been lying, Hello Hi Goodbye, Love and War, young single and sexy (forgot allll about this one)
Wow I forgot about a lot of these but loved them so this feels like a new listen. Man, I might have to give Phoenix a real listen (really loved Your song a lot and Let you love me) but i guess because it was treated like a debut I never really took her seriously but ok I’m in

I have been waiting as well, but only for Facemelt. Her debut wasn’t that interesting to me.
