YOU BE YOU LIVE

They told women to ask for a seat at the table. This song says something different. Welcome to MEETING IN THE BOARDROOM. Built on the attitude, funk, harmonies and swagger of an unforgettable 1980s girl-group record, this is a celebration of women who build companies, lead teams, move markets, raise generations, change industries and still get asked to prove they belong in the room. Not anymore. “...

Have you ever felt the crushing weight of silence after hitting "apply" for what seemed like your dream role? It’s more than just a missed opportunity; it’s a psychological toll that makes you question your worth and your professional future. Whether you are a mid-career professional wondering if you’ve become invisible or a rising star tired of jumping through hoops, the frustration of the "ghost...

When they come for one of us, they’re coming for all of us. The Bogeyman was never about one group. It has always been about teaching us who to fear today, so someone else can be feared tomorrow. That’s exactly why I wrote The Bogeyman Was Built trilogy. 📖 Volume One: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H6HBMWXK 👤 Author Page: https://www.amazon.com/author/williamrochelle #TheBogeymanWasBuilt #WilliamRo...

Watch Me is a song about the shift. That moment when you stop waiting for the world to hand you permission and finally remember that your life is still yours. The fear may have been loud. The setbacks may have been real. The road may have been unfair. But none of that gets the final word. This record is built around movement. Snaps, claps, breath hits, foot stomps, and sound coming from different...

Money Coming Down is more than a song. It is an affirmation with a beat heavy enough to shake the walls. I wanted this track to feel like abundance walking into the room before I even said a word. Fast bounce energy. Big 808s. Luxury confidence. A hook that keeps repeating until your spirit starts believing it. Money coming down. Money flowing in. Rain down the money. But underneath the flex, the...

“I Am Here” was created as a declaration of purpose. This song speaks directly to the universe with clarity, faith, and intention. It is about living an abundant life in every sense of the word. Love. Family. Wealth. Stability. Peace. Joy. Purpose. Giving back. Receiving fully. Uplifting others while standing fully in your own light. There are songs that entertain, and there are songs that affirm...

On The Edge is what happens when fantasy stops being quiet. This song is built on tension, craving, heat, and the kind of connection that takes over your mind before it ever reaches your hands. I wanted it to feel sensual, rock driven, melodic, and physical at the same time. Something you could move to, feel in your chest, and still get lost inside emotionally. There is a dreamy pull in the beginn...

Some moments don’t end. They just stay unfinished. “Just Your Name” came from that exact space. A glance across the room. A second too long. A decision not made. A conversation that never happened. And then it follows you home. This record leans into that feeling without trying to resolve it. The keys repeat like a thought you can’t shake. The vocals layer like memory stacking on top of itself. It...

Some songs are written to be liked. “Cup of Tea” was written to tell the truth. This track lives in that space between defiance and self acceptance. It is for the people who have spent too much time being misunderstood, mislabeled, or told to soften what made them powerful in the first place. The song does not ask for approval. It owns its presence. The video carries that same energy. It is sharp,...

Stop Scrolling was created as an energy shift. It is the sound of urgency, motion, personality, and presence all colliding at once. I wanted something that felt like culture, conversation, rhythm, and adrenaline with a symphonic backbone underneath it all. This song is tied to the spirit of YOU BE YOU LIVE and the larger idea that some people do not enter quietly. They change the room. This record...

“Bruno, Where Are You” came from that kind of morning. The kind where the sky looks the same, the room looks the same, your life looks the same, and yet something in you feels unexpectedly lighter. Not because every problem disappeared. Not because the world suddenly became easy. Just because, for a moment, your spirit decided to breathe differently. That is what this song captures. It is playful...

Not You Tonight Some songs are written to comfort you. Some songs are written to confront something. “Not You Tonight” does both, but it does it in heels, with a beat, and with no interest in pretending. This is a funky pop record about truth, performance, image, and the moment a person finally decides to stop confusing visibility with authenticity. It is about the difference between those who lov...

“Already Been There” There is a certain kind of peace that only comes after you have been broken by life, rebuilt by truth, and forced to learn the difference between noise and wisdom. “Already Been There” was written from that place. This is not a song about pretending to be strong. It is a song about what happens when strength becomes quiet because it no longer needs applause. It is about recogn...
