Be Alright

Be Alright

Ariana Grande

“Be Alright” is a light, upbeat marimba-backed track. Ariana reassures her listeners that although we face challenges in life, eventually we’ll overcome our obstacles and “everything will be alright.”

This song first appeared on June 17, 2015, when Ariana released two separate snippets of the song on her Snapchat account, “moonlightbae,” hinting at the song for nearly a year up to its eventual release.

Ari performed “Be Alright” alongside “Dangerous Woman” when she hosted Saturday Night Live on March 12th, 2016.

Grande described Dangerous Woman as being “the only album [she’s] ever done where [she] loves each song just as much as the next.” She also commented on the album’s variety in a recent livestream:

Everyone who listened to this album so far has a different favorite and that’s amazing because it means my music is diverse. It’s hitting all parts of the soul.

She also went on to add that “this album is near and dear to [her] heart” and has “put [her] whole heart into this album.”

From Digital Spy:

Ariana’s breathy ad-libs glide over this deep house cut perfectly, as we’re all given a second for our heartbeats to slow down after ‘Dangerous Woman’. ‘Be Alright’ is subtly epic, by not feeling pumped to Ibiza proportions, but transporting you to a more mellowed state of euphoria.

A demo version of the song featuring Quavo and Takeoff of the Migos was leaked on May 30, 2018.
