Charli XCX has released ‘Doing It’ with Rita Ora, with the unfortunate consequence that her UK album Sucker has been pushed back yet again.
Rapidly become the 2015 pop Chinese Democracy, XCX’s Sucker was released on 15 December in the United States but won't be release in the UK until 16 February.
However, the provocative songstress has teamed up with Ora for ‘Doing It’ - which one suspects would have been a shoe-in for the 50 Shades soundtrack if it had been released earlier. The track is more pure pop than XCX’s previous rock-tinged belters - resembling Katy Perry’s 'This Is How We Do' after too much Pinot Grigio.
