Consulting veteran David Guetta, the pop vocalist ditches standard set structures for a 135+ BPM performance on the Freedom stage.
Bebe Rexha is trading pop tempos for pure energy. Ahead of her Tomorrowland debut, the singer sought technical direction from longtime collaborator David Guetta to ensure her set met the festival's specific floor demands.
Guetta’s directive was blunt: maintain maximum intensity and avoid lowering the tempo. The resulting performance moves away from typical pop staging, opting instead for a hybrid format Rexha described as the intersection of a DJ set and live vocal performance.
The tracklist reflects this shift, blending her own hits with high-velocity staples like Darude’s ‘Sandstorm’ and Guetta’s rework of ‘Satisfaction.’ Keeping the clock above 135 BPM, the set marks a deliberate pivot toward the harder sonic profile of the Freedom stage.
