Born in Pristina, modern-day Kosovo, she rose to prominence when she featured on DJ Fresh's 2012 single, "Hot Right Now", which peaked atop the UK singles chart. In 2008, she signed with American rapper Jay-Z's label, Roc Nation and released her debut studio album, Ora (2012) which debuted atop the UK Albums Chart and spawned the number-one singles "R.I.P." and "How We Do (Party)". The trio of hits made her the artist with the most number-ones on the chart that year.

In 2014, Ora featured on Australian rapper Iggy Azalea's single, "Black Widow", which peaked at number three on the US Billboard Hot 100. The following year, she was named an Honorary Ambassador of Kosovo. After parting ways with Roc Nation, Ora signed with Atlantic Records to release her second studio album, Phoenix (2018). The album spawned the moderate hit singles "Your Song", "Anywhere" and "Let You Love Me"; the latter made Ora the first British female solo artist to have thirteen top ten songs in the United Kingdom. Her third studio album, You & I (2023), debuted at number six in the UK.
