Olly Murs teams up with Flo Rida!

Olly Murs is releasing his third album Right Place Right Time on November 26, exactly one year after his sophomore album and two years after debut album. Yep, between touring in the UK and North America, co-hosting the Xtra Factor and who knows what else, Olly is releasing an album this year, right before the Christmas season.

And here is the album’s lead single: Troublemaker. Track features American rapper Flo Rida. I don’t know the exact writing credits of this song, but a while ago songwriter Claude Kelly confirmed he wrote/co-wrote it. Claude also co-wrote “Heart Skips A Beat”, lead single from Olly’s sophomore album.

Digital Spy heard several other new songs.

    I have brain freeze this morning, so somebody help me out please. What is the name of the song that this melody is heavily borrowed from?

  • Mateja Praznik

     I have no idea, but people on Pulse say it reminds them of Maroon 5′s Misery.

    He has such a similar tone to Adam Levine! And yes it does sound like Misery! I feel like I’m waiting for the chorus of it lol. I like that he went towards a reggae-esque route. It makes him distinguished from others

    Im a big Olly fan and wish he’d get a bigger push in the US – and wish he would have gotten some role on the US show.  Parts of the song do sound like Maroon 5…

    Is Flo Rida big in the UK – he did something on Alexandra Burkes first album too

    According to his Wiki entry:
    RIGHT TIME< RIGHT PLACE
    The album will serve as Murs' first North American release on December 4, 2012, being released in the country through Columbia Records. His first North American release was originally due to be an alternative edition of his second album, In Case You Didn't Know, but the release was cancelled, and replaced with Right Place, Right Time. The American edition will be a mixture of seven tracks from the album, along with "Heart Skips a Beat", featuring Chiddy Bang in place of Rizzle Kicks, "Dance with Me Tonight" and "Oh My Goodness" from In Case You Didn't Know. A deluxe edition, available exclusively at Target, will contain an extra eight tracks from both his self-titled debut and In Case You Didn't Know.[4]
