Word for "to speak louder than"?

I was trying to say:

I had to shout so as to X the loudness of the music.

And then I realise I didn't know any word whose meaning was "to speak louder than". Does such a word exist? At first, I thought about something like "overspeak" or "overvolume", but the first one means something else entirely and the second one does not seem to exist.


If you're trying to talk to a friend during a loud concert, you might say "I had to shout over the music".

If your friend is speaking, and you interrupt him to make a point, increasing the volume of your voice so that you are heard (by him or by others in the conversation) despite the fact that your friend is still talking, you would be talking over him.
