Hit This - Alexandra Beck Story of Song

Indie Artists Labeled: Alexandra Beck is proud to announce the release of her highly anticipated single, “Hit This,” dropping on February 28, 2025. Written by Beck (under her real name, Alexandra Maria Beck Prodanuk) and produced by Grammy-nominated hitmaker Dr. Chaii (Dua Lipa & Sean Paul’s “No Lie”), this electrifying pop anthem is set to make waves in the dance-pop scene.

“Hit This” is a bold celebration of freedom, connection, and post-pandemic liberation. Inspired by a memorable night out in Vancouver after months of quarantine, the song captures the high-energy thrill of nightlife and the sparks of unexpected encounters.

“‘Hit This’ is about releasing pent-up energy and rediscovering the joy of being alive,” Beck shares. “It’s a snapshot of a moment when everything felt alive again.”
