American singer and songwriter Bebe Rexha has recorded songs for three studio albums and three extended plays (EP) as well as various soundtracks and collaborative projects. She learned to play the guitar, piano, and trumpet as a child and started producing her own beats using Pro Tools. Rexha began writing songs with her friends at school and won the title of "Best Teen Songwriter" at a Grammy competition. Aged 19, she became the lead vocalist of the American band Black Cards and subsequently left it to pursue a career as a songwriter and solo artist.[1][2] Rexha signed a contract with Warner Bros. Records in 2013[3] and released her debut single, "I Can't Stop Drinking About You", in March the following year.[4] It preceded her debut EP, I Don't Wanna Grow Up, which was released by Warner Bros. in May 2015.[5] That year, she also featured on David Guetta's single "Hey Mama" and released the song "Me, Myself & I" with G-Eazy.
In 2017, Rexha released two EPs which included her collaborations with hip hop artists. All Your Fault: Pt. 1 featured G-Eazy and Ty Dolla Sign, and All Your Fault: Pt. 2 featured Gucci Mane, 2 Chainz, Lil Wayne, and Kranium, as well as the country duo Florida Georgia Line. The Florida Georgia Line collaboration, "Meant to Be" (2017), reached number two on the US Billboard Hot 100 and spent 50 weeks atop the Hot Country Songs chart.[6][7] It earned a nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance.[8] It was included on her pop debut studio album, Expectations (2018).[9] In 2018, Rexha collaborated with Guetta again on the song "Say My Name" and featured on Rita Ora's song "Girls". She featured on the Chainsmokers' single "Call You Mine" and released the songs "Last Hurrah" and "You Can't Stop the Girl" the following year.
"Baby, I'm Jealous" (2020), the lead single from Rexha's second studio album, Better Mistakes (2021), featured a guest appearance by Doja Cat. Warner released the album in 2021, with additional features from Ty Dolla Sign, Travis Barker, Trevor Daniel, Lil Uzi Vert, Pink Sweats, Lunay, and Rick Ross. The following year, Rexha reunited with Guetta for the single "I'm Good (Blue)", which spent 55 weeks atop the Dance/Electronic Songs chart and earned a nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Dance/Electronic Recording.[7][10][11] The song led her pop[12] and dance-pop[13] third studio album, Bebe (2023), which featured Snoop Dogg and Dolly Parton. Later in 2023, Rexha released the song "Stars" with Pnau and Ozuna, "One in a Million" with Guetta, and "Heart Still Beating" with Nathan Dawe.
