Class is back in session for Paris Hilton and Megan Thee Stallion’s, “BBA (Remix)” (Bad B*tch Academy) with Kaleena Zanders’s electric new remix. The pop turned techno-house song is reborn following the release of Hilton’s latest album, Infinite Icon: The Remixes. A remixed version of Infinite Icon that was released September 2024.
The remix, which dropped on May 30 along with the album comes just in time for Pride Month celebrations. Cementing itself as the clubbiest new dance song! With feel-good mantras, pieced together by bold, bass-heavy sounds you’re immediately tapped into your “Hot Girl” energy. Zanders shared with WEHOnline,
I took inspiration from the movement of Charli XCX, how she’s doing electronic, high, buzzy sounds. I got a playlist together with songs I love from different artists. I wanted to play into that bratty, c*nty, funky experience.

A talent across generations:
No stranger to the power of music, her inspirations largely stem from her grandmother, who although passed away while Zanders was young, left a massive impact on her work. In an interview with Glasse Factory on March 20, Zanders shared of her grandmother who led a choir, sang, and played the piano,
I think that I inherited that…I inherited the musicality…and just the ability to do music from that.
~ Kaleena Zanders
And it’s not just her talents that make her a standout for a project like, “BBA (Remix).” Her experience as a black woman in the LQBTQI+ community makes it all the more special. Throughout her career she’s been able to successfully create spaces of togetherness and “BBA (Remix)” champions that fully through its feel-good vibe and charity.
Hilton’s nonprofit 11:11 Media Impact will be raising funds throughout the month of June by donating $11 to Rainbow Railroad every time someone posts a video to TikTok or Instagram using music from Infinite Icon: The Remixes. Rainbow Railroad is a global nonprofit that provides support for LGBTQI+ people facing persecution
