The Way I Are (Dance with Somebody)

"The Way I Are (Dance with Somebody)" is a song by American singer-songwriter Bebe Rexha featuring fellow American singer and rapper Lil Wayne, from her third EP All Your Fault: Pt. 2. It was released on May 19, 2017 by Warner Bros. Records as the lead single from the EP. The single was leaked a week before its release, though it was deleted soon after. The single was serviced to pop radio on June 6, 2017. The song samples Whitney Houston's single "I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)". Mike Wass of Idolator gave the song a positive review, calling the single "instantly hummable and sweet relief from the endless stream of left-of-center pop songs on radio." The music video directed by Director X was released on June 1, 2017. The fashion for the music video was inspired by vintage movies such as Grease. The video features video game Just Dance 2018 which the song is featured on. Rexha and Wayne performed the single together on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. Rexha later performed a solo version of the song on Good Morning America as part of their Summer Concert Series.
