"Build a Bitch" (edited for radio as "Build a Babe") is the debut single by Filipino-American social media personality Bella Poarch, released through Warner Records on May 14, 2021. An accompanying music video was released alongside the single.
Following her success on social media, Poarch signed a record label deal with Warner Records. "I feel like I found my family and part of that family is the label," Poarch says of signing to Warner in a statement to Billboard. "When I looked up some of the artists that meant the most to me musically like Prince, Dua Lipa, and Madonna, I realized Warner has helped all of those people along the way too. So I'm very honored to have a family that gave me a chance and believes in me." Poarch adds, "I've been singing and writing songs my whole life but to put together something special in this way and to have this opportunity… it's something I'll forever be grateful for. This is just the beginning." She is said to deliver "her own dynamic and diverse brand of dark pop".
The sheet music for "Build a Bitch" is published in the key of E-flat major and is set in time signature of common time with a tempo of 103 beats per minute. Poarch's vocal range spans from B♭3 to C5.
PRODUCTION
Made in collaboration with producer-songwriter Sub Urban, Poarch shares that the track was inspired by the direct scrutiny she received online. "Build a Bitch" is about accepting yourself for who you are instead of listening to other people's ideas of what you should do or how you should look. "I hope it helps people to feel more confident and good about themselves, and also reminds them not to judge anyone else," she says via a press statement. The song's cover art was made by popular artist 'YaLocalOffgod.'
