Since she signed a new deal in July (and probably lost all her songs recorded before that, on the lawsuit against her old label), Rita has been recording new music almost everyday with tons of people, including Charli XCX, Stargate, Diana Gordon (who wrote Beyoncé's "Sorry"), Bloodpop, Rodney Jerkins and others.
And her new album, after all the delays and scrapped projects, will be finished next month, according to this new interview:
Quote:
“I’m desperate to get my music out. I think I’m now at a point in my life where I have a new amazing label, we really have taken it to the next level. It’s very song-based. It’s very real — real instruments, believable lyrics. I’ve not only grown as an individual but as a woman. People are going to see that.”
Asked about subjects of the songs, she said: “It’s just everything from my personal life to what I couldn’t do due to previous situations and now being free. I’ve never been freer than I am right now. “It’s about everything from being a refugee, from flying in from Kosovo and living in London, having this amazing city that’s crazy and full of lights — talking about real stuff.”
She added: “I’ve been in a whirlwind but I’ve honestly been living my dream. I was living in New York for three months filming America’s Next Top Model, now I’m in London for two months recording every day with my dream team. Then I fly to LA in October to finish the album.”
