Phoenix by Rita Ora (2017)
(cover by @Ice Prince)
Tracklist
Brought to you by my current thrive for late 2010s nostalgia and the music I used to listen to. Finally securing time to hear this project in full, I've fully come to realise and ask if it was hard to tell if this era was a dream come true or a total nightmare for Rita Ora stans. I was really here for her at the start of this era, especially Girls (Rita if you see this PLEASE BE A LESBIAN AGAIN) and Anywhere. What could have been a solid yet prolonged follow up album, we got served what feels a more commercial than consistent record. My first rhetorical question therefore poses as stupid: It was one HELL of an era. So I wanna redo the single rollout too!
Singles
@Ice Prince's tracklist from 2022 is very very similiar to mine, I just did my edits around the back half of the album bc I'm the biggest Girls stan to exist. However Cardi's verse is rather annoying, and RAYE was totally robbed. Aside from the promotional era and tracklisting, picking Cardi over RAYE was one of the worst choices.
