The next installment of ReImagined, featuring rising vocal powerhouse Madison Beer serving up a powerful cover of British R&B/neo-soul songstress Corinne Bailey Rae's "Put Your Records On," is officially here!

Above, you can watch the L.A.-based, New York-born singer take on the GRAMMY-nominated 2006 feel-good bop. "Put Your Records On" was Bailey Rae's second single, which charted in both the U.K. and U.S., from her self-titled debut album. The uplifting track was nominated for Record Of The Year and Song Of The Year at the 49th GRAMMY Awards, where she also got a nod for Best New Artist.

Beer has a debut album of her own on the way this year to follow up her 2018 EP, As She Pleases. She released the LP's catchy lead single "Dear Society" in May. The 20-year-old is one to watch—back when she was just 13, Justin Bieber discovered her YouTube covers of icons like Etta James, tweeting about her to his huge fan base and helping connect her with a record deal.

15-year-old ranchera singer Ángela Aguilar grew up in the music industry, coming from a long lineage of powerful performers, including her father Pepe Aguilar. She has already grown into a big name herself, with a massive following (1.5 million followers on Instagram alone) but she's admitted that she'd still be star struck if she met Lady Gaga, of whom she's a big fan.

Now, with the latest episode of ReImagined, which you can watch below, Aguilar pays tribute to the pop queen, offering a moving one-woman cover of Gaga and Bradley Cooper's GRAMMY-winning hit "Shallow," from their Oscar-winning film A Star Is Born.

Angela Aguilar Covers Lady Gaga's "Shallow"

Aguilar may be as just as excited about this video as her many fans are. She first teased the performance last month during a news interview with TV Azteca, where she was very thrilled to have permission to offer her take on the emotional song.

"Shallow," released last fall as part of the A Star Is Born Soundtrack, was written by Gaga, Mark Ronson, Anthony Rossomando and Andrew Wyatt. The song took home two wins at the 61st GRAMMY Awards earlier this year, for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance and Best Song Written For Visual Media. 

Also for the 61st GRAMMYs, Aguilar earned her first nomination, for Best Regional Mexican Music Album (Including Tejano) for her debut solo album, Primera Soy Mexicana. She also, along with Aida Cuevas and Natalia Lafourcade, stole the show during the GRAMMY Premiere Ceremony, with their rendition of the classic Spanish language song "La Llorna." Aguilar also earned her first Latin GRAMMY nominations in 2018, for Best New Artist and Best Ranchero/Mariachi Album.

Today, electro-pop powerhouse Billie Eilish shared a new song, one that she is arguably even more excited about than even her growing global fan base. The fire "bad guy" remix features none other than GRAMMY-winning pop heavyweight Justin Bieber, who also happens to be her first crush and one of her biggest musical idols.

Eilish couldn't contain her excitement on Instagram, writing, "BAD GUY FEAT. JUSTIN BIEBER OUT NOWWW OMGFFFFGGG ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE MAN." The post included the single's album art, an adorable picture of a young Eilish posing in a rainbow dress in her room, in front of her wall plastered with Belieber posters.  

Bieber also shared the same image on his social media, writing, "@billieeilish so proud of you. Remix." Eilish first met her tween-era crush earlier this year, during Coachella weekend one, where she made her debut at the iconic fest, heading Saturday night. The pop powerhouses met that next evening, during Ariana Grande's big headline moment, during which Eilish had the cutest fangirl moment. Bieber and Grande's manager, Scooter Braun, captured the special moment with a video and picture on his Instagram.

Eilish released her highly anticipated debut studio album, WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO, on March 29, which leads with the original version of the trippy bop "bad guy." She continues her run of big shows and fests across the globe, including European dates this summer and a headline spot at Austin City Limits in October and Corona Capital in Mexico City in November.

Congrats Billie, here's to making all of your dreams come true; we can't wait to hear them.
