Los Angeles-based pop-R&B artist Yarin Glam effectively rips the seams of prosaic pop with her recent single, “Rebel,” a powerhouse anthem of self-empowerment and defiance of societal expectations. The song, which will be included in her debut EP, “Human,” to be released in 2025, embodies the essence of escaping from being tame and living unapologetically.
The moment the track starts, “Rebel” ensnares you with its soulful melodies and slick production, which Leather Jackettt provides. The beat is smooth but punchy, setting the stage for Yarin’s sultry but authoritative vocals. There is an undeniable confidence in her delivery, which resonates with anyone who has ever felt the weight of societal pressure and found the audacity to resist.
But at its heart, “Rebel” is a personal manifesto. And such truth is poured out with each lyric, co-written with Darius Colman, making it clear that this is a fight Yarin knows well. The song is about Yarin’s journey of rejecting what society told her she was supposed to want as a woman. She didn’t allow the pressure around her to dictate who she needed to be or how to carry herself. Her proclamation rang true, especially in a landscape that frequently attempts to pigeonhole women into prescribed roles.
As the chorus rises, so does the sense of freedom. The production swells, with a pulsating beat turning “Rebel” into an anthem you want to dance to. The song inspires, raises, and unapologetically prepares you to step into their truth. With “Rebel,” Yarin Glam establishes herself as an artist with a voice and a message. This is a rallying cry for authenticity. And if this is a taste of what’s to come of her debut EP, “Human,” we’re in for something unique.
