\"Hot Right Now\" debuted at the top of UK Singles Chart on 19 February 2012. The Official Charts Company confirmed \"Hot Right Now\" as the UK's first ever drum and bass number one.\n

Background and composition

In July 2011, DJ Fresh released \"Louder\", the first single from his third studio album, Nextlevelism. It reached peak position on the UK Singles Chart, giving DJ Fresh his first ever number one. After \"Louder\", Fresh started working on \"Hot Right Now\" and as he was looking for a vocalist for the song, he came across Ora's cover videos on YouTube. Daniel Stein and The Invisible Men wrote the song while Daniel Stein and Wez Clarke produced it.\n

Critical reception

Robert Copsey of Digital Spy gave the song a mixed review stating:\n

\n\n

Judging by the results of his latest track, we assume that the burden became all-too-great. Yes, the head-spinning breakneck beats and fuzzy basslines are impressive, as are the efforts of rising Roc Nation-signed guest singer Rita Ora, but there's something lacking here that made 'Louder' the hit that it was. Our suggestion? Lyrics such as \"Turn it up right now/ Put your hands in the air if you want it right now\" can't be doing him many favours. .\n
