'Praising You' singer Rita Ora has started to tease new music, and it's getting her fans very excited. The singer, who released her third studio album last year, called 'You & I', took to her socials to share some pics from a studio in New Zealand, writing: 'Pick your studio angle… 🎵 😎 I couldn’t decide…🙄🤷🏼‍♀️'.

In the series of photos shared by Rita, she can be seen standing in a studio surrounded by instruments, including several keyboards and guitars. The last two photos show her in the bathroom taking a mirror selfie, showing off her outfit.

Since sharing her pics, the singer has attracted hundreds of comments from fans, with one writing: 'I can’t wait for this!!!!! Also whatttttt crazy your still in Auckland!!!! Your so so soo soo amazing ❤❤❤❤'. (sic)

Another said: 'I love the angle where I see you... RECORDING! I'm literally crying this is going to be so so so amazing 😭❤️❤️❤️'.

Last year, Rita released several songs from her latest album, including her comeback single 'You Only Love Me', followed by 'Praising You' featuring Fatboy Slim, and 'Don't Think Twice'. Then, earlier this year, she released 'Shape of Me'.

Talking about her album last year, Rita wrote on Instagram: 'This album really means a lot to me - it’s like my diary of the last few years, it’s my sound and it just feels so true to me and who I am today ❤️ Welcome to the new era, RO3 is coming 🔓'.

She also released 'Drinkin'' with Joel Corry and MK in 2023.
