Rita Sahatçiu Ora, better known as Rita Ora, is a British singer-songwriter and actress.
Rita Sahatçiu Ora, better known as Rita Ora, is a British singer-songwriter from London, UK. Originally born in Prishtina, Kosovo in 1990, Ora’s family moved to London where she was raised.
In 2009, she signed a recording contract with Jay-Z’s label Roc Nation and relocated to America. Her debut album is schedule for release in 2011.
Greatness comes from a solid sense of self. As an artist, it takes knowing who you are and exactly what you want to say. Roc Nation’s newest signee, 19 year-old Rita Ora, has no qualms with telling the world who she is. Unlike over-the-top pop stars who rely on gimmicks to express themselves, Rita’s individuality is effortless. And thanks to her tremendous vocal ability and fresh take on love and life, the British based singer is entirely unique.
“To be different you have to sound different,” says Rita. “My musical style is very free. I love pop music but I do it with an edge. I want to bring that whole British style to America, I think we take different chances musically.”
“I was performing at a fun fair in the park and there was a producer there with his kids. He saw me and he said come by my studio,” says Rita about renowned pop producer Martin Terefe. “I didn’t really take him seriously and then he gave me a card and I was like, ‘Oh, he’s got a card!’ So I went to the studio with my mum after school and I sang for him and he signed me to a two year production deal.”
Not long after, she was approached by an A&R at a concert in London who recognized Rita from Terefe’s studio. “She was like, ‘What are you doing with yourself?’ and I said I was about to get my degree and she goes, ‘Come see me tomorrow,” remembers Rita. “I had lunch with her the next day and I brought my laptop to play her some stuff and she was like, ‘You know who would be great for you? [Roc Nation President] Jay Brown.’ I didn’t know he had anything to do with JAY-Z at the time. She made the phone call and I sent some stuff to him.”
In December of 2008, five days after sending her music to Brown, 17 year-old Rita arrived in New York City to meet with Roc Nation executives. Three days later she secured a spot on the progressive new label. Rita was immediately blown away by her new label’s potential to create music so exactly tailored to her artistic vision.
Now that she has an incredible team behind her, Rita has had the chance to create her debut album which is both stylistically diverse and emotionally engaging by mixing her wide ranging mix of musical inspirations such as Sade, Amy Winehouse, MGMT, and Beyonce. Rita’s voice envelops her LP’s tracks with a rich and sultry tone that evokes a timeless quality way beyond her 19 years.
Luckily for Rita she has been able to express exactly what is in her heart and mind and has been blessed to work with a team who supports her every artistic urge. “I’m just an outspoken British girl, I don’t really know how the American music industry works. It’s a privilege to learn from the legends.”
