Four pop superpowers reunite for the new hit of the summer titled Girls, produced by Ben Billions behind The Weeknd's Party Monster and Beyoncé's 6 INCH.
Origins
On May 28, 2017, Rita Ora unveiled for the first time, the song live on BBC Radio 1 ́s Big Weekend, with the participation of singers RAYE and Charli XCX. In November, Rita Ora confirmed the definitive collaborations by keeping Charli XCX and adding Bebe Rexha and Cardi B.
Moreover, fans are still waiting for Rita Ora's second studio album whose date is still unknown. For now, the single Your Song, written by Ed Sheeran and Anywhere produced by DJ Alesso are the only tastes of the second opus of the singer.
Bisexuality
Girls is an anthem that praises women and bisexuality "Sometimes I just wanna kiss girls, girls, girls" sing in the chorus.
In addition, Cardi B's intervention fills the song "Tonight, I don't want a dog, I want a kitten, I might french a girl from Great Britain" with energy and humor.
Girls is an effective but not memorable pop track . The production is very similar to the Charli XCX universe that stands out the most in the song. The additions of Bebe Rexha and Cardi B are interesting and clever, as Rexha is preparing for the release of her debut studio album Expectations and which is a hit with her hit Meant to Be, while Cardi B is the most famous rapper currently.
However, we would have preferred to leave aside the marketing strategy to give way to singers truly committed to the LGBT community including Kehlani or of course Hayley Kiyoko. However, Girls will always make us dance and enjoy the summer sun that is coming very soon.
Rita Ora will be in concert in Paris on Wednesday, May 23 at the Elysée Montmartre. To know by heart all the hits of the singer for this evening that promises to be memorable, go to the lyric video of Girls.
