Rita Ora Will Bring Plenty of Surprises on U.S. Debut Album in 2013

Rita Ora had quite a year with the U.K. release of her debut album 'ORA' and her chart-topping hits 'How We Do (Party)' and 'R.I.P.' So when will she release her LP stateside?! Chill, it's coming, promises the Roc Nation songbird.

Ora has been working diligently on new songs for her U.S. debut album and teased that a couple of Roc Nation artists might join her on the collection. "There's a few surprises. I don't want to give them away, but it's definitely in the Roc family," she told MTV News. "2013 is really important for me because it's gonna to be the first time the U.S. hears my official album and I wanted to put a few extra tracks on there and make it really special. So I'm basically giving you guys a whole new album of new material."

Awesome! We can only guessimate which Roc Nation artist will appear on her album, but a duet with J. Cole and her boss, Jay-Z, would make us giddy here in the office. We have been waiting with bated breath on Ora's new album, so we're glad that it will drop in 2013.

As for any new plans this year, the 22-year-old blonde bombshell is coy with her answer, but it sounds very promising. "2013's got a lot of things I want to achieve. There's a lot of kind of plans and ideas that are gonna come out in 2013," she says.
