Rita Ora has just released her latest single, “Heat”—a flirtatious, high-energy track poised to become the anthem of summer 2025. The song dropped on the same day as her performance at the World Pride Music Festival in Washington, D.C., making it a particularly meaningful moment for the artist and her fans, Rks News reports.
Produced by Peter Thomas, with lyrics co-written by pop powerhouses Troye Sivan and Leland, the track delivers a playful, direct, and provocative sound. Its catchy chorus underlines a bold and unapologetic message of self-expression, a signature of Rita Ora’s evolving musical style.
The accompanying music video, shot on Miami Beach, features sculpted bodies in the sand, radiating the confidence and glamour that have long defined Rita’s visual aesthetic. Speaking about the release, Rita said the song celebrates freedom, joy, and pride in being unapologetically oneself.
With 22 UK Top 40 singles under her belt, “Heat” is expected to become her next big summer hit, adding another milestone to her already impressive pop career.
