Combining the vocal talents of the performers currently starring in the show across the globe, including West End's Rachelle Ann Go, "First Burn" is Miranda's original 2014 draft of what became the second act number "Burn", which comes as Alexander Hamilton's wife Eliza reflects on her husband's infidelities.
Other performers in the song are Arianna Afsar (Eliza in the original Chicago production of Hamilton), Julia Harriman (Eliza in one of the US tour casts), Lexi Lawson (currently Eliza in the Broadway production) and Shoba Narayan (Eliza in the other US tour cast).

Last month's Hamildrop was a mashup of Hamilton's "The Story of Tonight" and "You Will Be Found" from Dear Evan Hansen, raising funds for the March For Our Lives initiative.
You can listen to "First Burn" below, with the song available to stream on Spotify, Apple Music, and download through iTunes and GooglePlay.
Earlier today it was announced that Spamilton, a musical parody of Hamilton, would be opening at the Menier Chocolate Factory in July.
