Kylie Jenner's "Rise and Shine" (opens in new tab) has transcended its place a viral meme and become something bigger—something almost (but not quite) like a real song.
That's a lot to ask of a two-second clip of audio, but that's where we are. In addition to spawning countless memes, a bopping EDM remix, and official merch (opens in new tab), the, um, track has now inspired legitimate celebrity covers—most recently by none other than the amazing Lizzo (opens in new tab).
