"Hot Right Now" is a single by British drum and bass producer DJ Fresh, released as the second single from his third studio album, Nextlevelism. British singer Rita Ora features on the single as the main vocalist. The song also features as a bonus track on Ora's debut album, Ora.

The Official Charts Company confirmed "Hot Right Now" as the UK's first ever drum and bass No. 1.

Background and composition

On 3 July 2011, DJ Fresh released "Louder" (featuring Sian Evans), the first single from his third studio album, Nextlevelism. It reached peak position in the "UK Singles Chart", giving Fresh his first ever No. 1. After "Louder", Fresh started working on his second single, "Hot Right Now", and he was looking for a voice to put on it. He came across an acoustic version of Outkast's song "Hey Ya!" posted on YouTube by Roc Nation signee Rita Ora, who was working on her debut album, Ora. Ora auditioned for the part and was eventually kept on the track. Daniel Stein and The Invisible Men wrote the song while Daniel Stein and Wez Clarke produced it.

Rita Ora

Rita Sahatçiu Ora (born Rita Sahatçiu; 26 November 1990) is a British singer and actress. Her debut studio album, Ora, released in 2012, debuted at number one in the United Kingdom. The album contained the UK number-one singles, "R.I.P." and "How We Do (Party)". After reaching the peak position as a featured act on DJ Fresh's "Hot Right Now", Ora became the artist with the most number-one singles on the UK Singles Chart in 2012, with three consecutive singles reaching the top position. She was nominated for three Brit Awards at the 2013 ceremony.

Her single, "I Will Never Let You Down", became her fourth UK number one when it debuted at the top of the charts in 2014. Also in 2014, Ora featured on Iggy Azalea's single, "Black Widow", which reached number three in the US. In 2015, Ora became a coach on the fourth series of The Voice UK, and later that year, a judge on the twelfth series of The X Factor.

Early life

Ora was born in Pristina, SFR Yugoslavia (present-day Kosovo) to Albanian parents. Her mother, Vera Sahatçiu (née Bajraktari), is a psychiatrist, and her father, Besnik Sahatçiu, is an economist and a pub owner. Her mother is Catholic and her father is Muslim. Ora has an older sister, Elena, and a younger brother, Don. She was named after the favourite film star of her film director grandfather Besim Sahatçiu, Rita Hayworth. She was born as Rita Sahatçiu (surname derived from the Turkish word "saatçi" which means "watchmaker"), but her father later added Ora ("time" in Albanian) to the family surname so it could be easily pronounced.
