About Bebe Rexha

Bleta "Bebe" Rexha ( BEE-bee REK-sə; born August 30, 1989) is an American singer and songwriter. She began her mainstream recording career as a vocalist for the pop band Black Cards in 2010, during and after which she was credited with co-writing releases for other artists—such as Eminem's Grammy Award-winning single "The Monster". She signed with Warner Records to release her debut extended play (EP), I Don't Wanna Grow Up (2015), which failed to chart domestically, but spawned the moderate international hit "I'm Gonna Show You Crazy". Rexha released two additional EPs in 2017: All Your Fault: Pt. 1 and All Your Fault: Pt. 2, both of which spawned the singles "I Got You" and "The Way I Are (Dance with Somebody)" (featuring Lil Wayne). Rexha saw further success with her collaborations such as "Hey Mama" (with David Guetta, Nicki Minaj and Afrojack), "Me, Myself & I" (with G-Eazy), "In the Name of Love" (with Martin Garrix), and "Meant to Be" (featuring Florida Georgia Line)—the latter peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was nominated for Best Country Duo/Group Performance at the 61st Grammy Awards. Rexha's debut studio album, Expectations (2018), peaked at number 13 on the Billboard 200 and yielded her a nomination for Best New Artist that same year. Her second and third albums, Better Mistakes (2021) and Bebe (2023), both entered the Billboard 200—the latter included the single "I'm Good (Blue)" (with David Guetta), which peaked at no. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped the charts in twenty-two countries. Her fourth studio album, Dirty Blonde, was released in 2026. Throughout her career, Rexha has been nominated four times at the Grammy Awards and has won several accolades, including one Academy of Country Music Award, one MTV Video Music Awards, three Electronic Dance Music Awards and two Billboard Music Awards. While in high school choir, she discovered that she is a coloratura soprano.
