"Be OK" is the Grammy Award-winning third single from soul- R&B singer-songwriter Chrisette Michele's debut album, ''I Am'' released digitally on December 11, 2007. The song features rapper will.i.am and won the Grammy for Best Urban/Alternative Performance. Background "Be OK" is an up-tempo soul-contemporary R&B song with influences of hip-hop. The song is about a break-up with a boyfriend and how trying to let go is not easy. It features pop-rap singer will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas. Reception The song received positive reviews. The AV Club says that on "Be OK" and "Let's Rock," Michele plays the upbeat B-girl over Will.I.Am's anthemic boom-bap. AllHipHop has this to say about Be OK: I Am is the antithesis to any of the albums currently playing on iPods across the land, particularly those drenched in love-scorned tracks and painful riffs.

Songs Written By Bob Marley
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical compos ...

This genre gained mainstream popularity during the 1990s, though the influences and roots of pop rap can trace back to late-1980s hip hop artists such as Run-DMC, LL Cool J, and Beastie Boys. The lyrics are often lighthearted, with choruses similar to those heard in pop music. Characteristics AllMusic describes pop rap as "a marriage of hip hop beats and raps with strong melodic hooks, which are usually featured as part of the chorus section in a standard pop-song structure." Pop rap also tends to have less aggressive lyrics than street-level rap music. However, some 1990s artists fused pop rap with a more aggressive attitude to defuse backlash on their own accessibility. Music journalist Wilson McBee has strongly criticized pop rap, "A pop rapper is assumed to ...
