Rita Ora releases “Ask And You Shall Receive”

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 sizzling music video was shot in LA, set in a 24-hour washroom and draws inspiration from a 1985 Levi’s 501 commercial starring Nick Kamen. Ora’s husband, filmmaker Taika Waititi, can be seen as a laundress as he arrives to wash the dress she’s wearing and ends up demolishing the place with a bat.

Rita Ora‘s 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.
