Be Alright (Ariana Grande song)

"Be Alright" is a song recorded by American singer Ariana Grande for her third studio album Dangerous Woman (2016).

[4] Then, on January 20, 2016, Grande posted another two snippets of "Be Alright" on her Snapchat, with MTV News noting that they "reveal a grooving house beat over which Ari croons, 'Baby, we'll be all right' and 'every little thing's gonna be all right.

[8] "Be Alright" was written by Ariana Grande, Tommy Brown, Victoria Monét, Khaled Rohaim, Mura Masa, Nao, Nicholas Audino, Lewis Hughes and Willie Tafa.

[7] During the first lines, she sings: "Midnight shadows / When finding love is a battle / But daylight, is so close / So don't you worry 'bout a thing.

"[14] Guernsey born record producer Mura Masa alleged the track ripped off his 2015 single "Firefly" featuring Nao.

[22] In his review of Dangerous Woman, Corner called it "subtly epic, by not feeling pumped to Ibiza proportions, but transporting you to a more mellowed state of euphoria," also highlighting that it was one of his favorite songs.

[17] Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine called it a "minimalistic banger" and noted that "the modern technique is cleverly used to approximate a retro sound, simulating the black male background singers of early-'90s house music.

"[23] Megan Downing of MTV UK wrote that it "shouldn't work on paper: a deep house track featuring Ari's souring vocals, however, it really does work and is one of the best tracks on the album,"[24] while Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic called it an alluring "bright blasts of disco.

"[25] Corban Globe of Pitchfork opined that "'Be Alright' utilizes the deep house lite that's en vogue these days, allowing an assured Grande to soar, though she wisely omits some of the garnish vocal runs.

"[18] Mikael Wood of Los Angeles Times called it "buoyant", but observed that she promises the feel-good optimism "in a voice that sounds like it's never seen worse than a broken fingernail.
