Rita Ora

Rita Ora Much like a celebrity-packed episode of a Ricky Gervais sitcom, Rita Ora boasts an all-star cast for her debut outing. With Drake's lyrics, a guest spot from Tinie Tempah and production courtesy of Chase & Status and Stargate, it would take a hefty amount of talent to remain noticed amongst the industry heavyweights who have contributed to 'R.I.P.' - especially after the recent revelation that it was initially offered to Rihanna.

Naturally, the news has sparked vicious comparisons between the two. "R.I.P, to the girl you used to see/ Her days are over, baby, she's over," Ora sings over fizzing synths and grimy breakbeats, determined to overcome her lost love. She still has a considerable way to go before she reaches RiRi's level of icy command on such a track - but for a girl who once considered entering Eurovision, it's safe to say she's come along leaps and bounds.
