Solange and Destiny’s Child sang the original theme song and the show ran for two seasons between 2001 and 2005 but remained a cult favorite among fans. The revival will premiere on Disney+ on February 23, with the entire original cast returning and guest appearances from Lil Nas X, Lizzo, Chance the Rapper, Normani and more.

Wrice was a fan of the original show growing up and referred to the theme song as “iconic.”

“It’s timeless. It is classic… I know it so well. So, for me to kinda like take the baton and do it, it’s amazing,” Wrice said in a recently released featurette about the show’s music. She added she wanted to pay “dues and respect” to the original version while adding her own flare.
