”"Be An Alpha" is a song from Z-O-M-B-I-E-S: The Re-Animated Series. It's also a major meme on VvvvvaVvvvvvr.
Background[]
Z-O-M-B-I-E-S is one of Disney Channel's live-action franchises. It somehow got 3 movies and two series even though no one cares about it.
On June 29, 2024 the world was graced with Z-O-M-B-I-E-S: The Re-Animated Series episode 4B "A Wyatt Place", where "Be an Alpha" appears. In this episode, Wyatt can't ask Eliza out on a date due to his negative rizz. Willa and Bucky upon witnessing Wyatt's latest failure decide to teach him how to be an alpha dog like they are (because Willa cares for all werewolves including Wyatt and Bucky has the locker next to Wyatt and gets secondhand embarrassment from Wyatt's constant lack of rizz). To teach him how, they sing the song "Be an Alpha" all about the mindset you need to have to assert dominance over others. Midway through the song Wyatt miraculously becomes a completely different person. He asks out Eliza but then ruins the date by making a fool of himself with his continuing lack of care for others. In the end, Wyatt picks on the wrong person, who throws him out of the restaurant and into a dumpster, making him return to his normal personality and apologize to Eliza. Eliza then climbs into the dumpster as well and presumably makes out with Wyatt or something.
"Be an Alpha" immediately became a subject of mockery on social media for having strange lyrics and, quite simply, the mere mention of the term "alpha". People making fun of the song have a tendency to bring up completely unrelated canceled Disney series like The Owl House, following the format of "They cancelled <show> for this?".[1]
On the channel[]
- See also: Category:Vips with Be an Alpha
Its first appearance on the channel was in the fansub "be an alpha - zombies the reanimated series". After the release of this rip it would start frequently being used by fansubbers and team members.
Almost all vips featuring this meme are mashups, with only a small handful incorporating melody changes or arrangements (usually alongside a mashup).
The first vip, as well as a number of others, would use the following frame from the music video or an edit of it as the thumbnail:
Upload spams[]
Starting with the rip "2 STUD INVASION - REGRETEVATOR", SiIvaGunner would begin to use "Be an Alpha" in a weird combination of sources mostly known as "tobyalphaeehpoopferb". Despite SiIva using VvvvvaVvvvvvr memes like every day, upload spams of 5 vips using "Be an Alpha" would begin to start occurring a few minutes after the release of a SiIva rip using the song. They have stopped doing these upload spams though.

Trivia[]
- This song is (unfortunately) the second most used meme of Chapter 2, only beat by "The Marvelous Toy".
