More about this title
About the Artist: Bebe Rexha
Bebe Rexha is a singer-songwriter and producer from Brooklyn whose work spans pop, hip-hop, and R&B. Beyond her solo career, she has written and produced tracks for major artists and contributed to film soundtracks, bringing her distinctive vocal sensibility and storytelling approach to diverse projects. Her music often centers themes of resilience and empowerment, making her a natural fit for character-driven material.
Why we love this
Alan Billingsley's arrangement captures the defiant energy of Rexha's original without sacrificing the emotional core of the message. The choral writing sits at an accessible level while the instrumental components add theatrical weight, making this feel like a real event piece rather than background music. Programming this signals that your choir engages with contemporary voices and themes that matter to young singers.
What to expect
Propulsive and charged with purpose. The arrangement builds momentum through layered instrumental colors and vocal lines that move with intention. There's an undercurrent of determination beneath the pop sensibility, creating something that feels both current and meaningful.
Who it's for
Middle and high school choirs looking for contemporary repertoire with a message. This works equally well for groups building mixed or unchanged voicing literacy, and for programs that want to include current artists in their season.
How to get the most out of it
- Lean into the urgency in the text from the first phrase. The arrangement thrives when singers treat this as a declaration, not a song to be sung prettily.
- Balance the instrumental texture with your choir tone. The arrangement will either support or overwhelm your singers depending on dynamics, so map out where your section needs space to project.
- Commit to the rhythm section pocket. This track lives in groove and precision, so lock the fundamental pulse early in rehearsal rather than drifting into a ballad feel.
How to use it
Position this in a concert that explores social themes in contemporary music, or use it as an opener that immediately establishes energy and engagement. It pairs well with other film music or pop arrangements as a standalone set, and works especially effectively when programmed alongside repertoire that explores identity and voice.
Skills your students will build
- Rhythm notation in pop idioms (syncopation and groove patterns)
- Blend and balance in mixed instrumental textures
- Text expression and interpretive choices in contemporary styles
- Ensemble precision with rhythm section accompaniment
