February 12, 20214 yr Bang Bang doesn’t sample Crazy Frog btw... :lol: I don’t get the tacky reference...It’s a solid bop. I’m shocked at how much I like this, When I heard about it I thought meh but I can’t stop Replaying the whole EP.

I’m shocked at how much I like this, When I heard about it I thought meh but I can’t stop Replaying the whole EP. I think it's based on this primarily: O7CaEWR_Kdk This was then covered in the 90s by a dance act, and then again by Crazy Frog which has unfortunately become the most known version of it but in its original form it's actually a good piece of music and there's no shame in sampling/interpolating it!
February 12, 20214 yr Big and Bang Bang could be easy hits for her. I could see Bang Bang being big in Europe also. I hope her team doesn’t drop the ball here !
February 13, 20214 yr The EP is so good! *_* "Bang Bang" & "Big" are smashes waiting to happen. I could see "The One" being a hit too. "Mood" sounds like it could do really on US Urban/Rhythmic radio.
February 13, 20214 yr Anywhere isn't just Rita's best for me, it's one of the best pop songs of the 2010s so quite honestly I'm not ever expecting her to top it! I'd be disappointed constantly if I always held her to that standard.

February 14, 20214 yr Big is such a bop :wub: I hate her as a person so much but she really does sdeliver the goods!
February 14, 20214 yr Oh wow this completely out-did my expectations. Imanbek done a great job on the production on this I love all 4 songs
February 14, 20214 yr I cannot get enough of Big and I really wish I could hear it in a club setting so bad :( Hoping it can be a hit for her and pick up support! This is exactly what she should have come back with after Phoenix, not the forgettable How To Be Lonely!
February 14, 20214 yr Her team is messing this release up again... She needs playlisting and radio plays.

I’m shocked at how much I like this, When I heard about it I thought meh but I can’t stop Replaying the whole EP. Actually it does, the producer only knew the Crazy Frog version (at least according to this article) EXCLUSIVE: Rita Ora and Imanbek have sampled Crazy Frog infamous single for their new song Bang Bang, with the DJ admitting he wasn't even aware the digital amphibian had sampled Harold Faltermeyer's Beverly Hills Cop classic Rita Ora has never been one to shy away from pushing the limits when it comes to art and music, but her latest move may be her kookiest yet. The How To Be Lonely songstress, who will perform her new single Big on Dancing On Ice this weekend, has sampled Crazy Frog classic Axel F for a new track. Rita and DJ Imanbek have officially sampled the song, which originated in the 1984 film Beverly Hills Cop before being remixed in 2005, on their EP track Bang Bang. Following in the footsteps of Taylor Swift and Right Said Fred on Look What You Made Me Do, original composer Harold Faltermeyer has full writing credits for the track alongside the duo. A source told Daily Star: "Rita is really experimenting with her sound on this EP. "Bang Bang samples Harold Faltermeyer's Axel F - which Crazy Frog re-released in 2005. "Imanbek is only 20 so wasn't even born when the song was first around in the 80s. "When he was in the studio and suggested they should sample the track he was only thinking of the Crazy Frog hit." https://www.dailystar.co.uk/showbiz/rita-or...lassic-23478858 Anyway I love Bang Bang, it is the track I have been revisiting the most and I hope it can be a big hit.
February 14, 20214 yr Actually it does, the producer only knew the Crazy Frog version (at least according to this article) Anyway I love Bang Bang, it is the track I have been revisiting the most and I hope it can be a big hit. It doesn’t sample Crazy Frog though it’s Axel F regardless of the inspiration, that above article to me says that they played him the Axel sample and he only knew it from Crazy Frog not that he actually sampled CF. There’s no Crazy Frog sounds only the Axel F soundtrack. Edited February 14, 20214 yr by Mr. C. Joel
February 14, 20214 yr She performed Bang Bang just now on Dancing On Ice . Confusing as isn’t Big the single ? :lol:
February 14, 20214 yr It was the weirdest performance ever. It was really short, Rita looked confused at times whether she was meant to be singing or not?!! Really odd and it’s a shame she didn’t perform ‘BIG’ I’m wondering if there was a change last minute or they had planned a skate to Bang Bang?
February 14, 20214 yr I’m glad Bang Bang was performed, I hope they give it a proper push. That performance was definitely way too short though
February 14, 20214 yr Author It was the weirdest performance ever. It was really short, Rita looked confused at times whether she was meant to be singing or not?!! Really odd and it’s a shame she didn’t perform ‘BIG’ I’m wondering if there was a change last minute or they had planned a skate to Bang Bang? The performance was pre-recorded, so it wouldn't be a last minute change!
