Rexha released two additional extended plays in 2017, All Your Fault: Pt. 1 and All Your Fault: Pt. 2, which again saw the moderate success of the singles "I Got You" and "The Way I Are (Dance with Somebody)". Rexha has also seen success with several collaborations including "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" with Florida Georgia Line, the latter of which had large success as a country crossover single, peaking at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States. Rexha's debut studio album, Expectations (2018), reached number 13 on the Billboard 200 chart in the United States and saw the success of its lead single, "I'm a Mess", and brought Rexha two nominations for Best New Artist and Best Country Duo/Group Performance at the 61st Grammy Awards.[10][11] Rexha released her second studio album, Better Mistakes, in 2021.
Early life
Bleta Rexha was born on August 30, 1989, in the Brooklyn borough of New York City, to ethnic Albanian parents.[12] Her father, Flamur Rexha, was born in Debar, Macedonia (now North Macedonia), when it was part of Yugoslavia, and immigrated to the U.S. at the age of 21. Her mother, Bukurije Rexha, was born in America to an Albanian family with roots in Gostivar, North Macedonia.[13][14] In the Albanian language, bletë means "bee"; and she explained "My parents are Albanian, and people started calling me 'Bebe' for short."[5] She and her family moved to nearby Staten Island when she was six.[12] Rexha has a brother named Florent.[15][16]
Rexha played trumpet and taught herself to play guitar and piano.[17][18] Rexha attended Tottenville High School on Staten Island,[19] where she took part in a variety of musicals.[8][14] She also joined the choir, while still in high school.[18] After joining the choir, she discovered that her voice was a coloratura soprano.[20][21] Rexha lists Coldplay, the Cranberries, Lauryn Hill, Alanis Morissette, and Kanye West as musical influences.[22][23]
As a teenager, Rexha submitted a song to be performed at the National Academy of Recording Arts Sciences' annual "Grammy Day" event. Rexha earned the "Best Teen Songwriter" award, beating around 700 other entrants.[12][24][25] As a result, she signed a contract with talent scout Samantha Cox, who encouraged Rexha to enroll in songwriting classes in Manhattan.[17][26]
Career
2011–2012: Career beginnings with Black Cards

In 2010, Rexha met Fall Out Boy's bassist Pete Wentz and began working with him at a recording studio in New York City.[18][27] She became a member and a lead vocalist of Wentz's new experimental project called Black Cards. The band played a variety of live shows and released several singles and remixes. However, in January 2012, Wentz announced that Rexha had left the band to pursue other endeavors.[28] Bebe Rexha was awarded the Abe Olman Scholarship for her contributions as a songwriter later that year.[29]
2013–2016: Solo debut, I Don't Wanna Grow Up and collaborations
In 2013, Rexha signed with Warner Bros. Records as a solo artist.[30] Rexha had begun writing several songs, including Selena Gomez's "Like a Champion" and Nikki Williams's "Glowing".[7] Her most prominent songwriting effort of 2013 was Eminem's and Rihanna's "The Monster", which was released as the fourth single from Eminem's album The Marshall Mathers LP 2. The song went on to top the charts for the US Billboard Hot 100 and the US Hot RB/Hip-Hop Songs and won a Grammy Award for Best Rap/Sung Performance at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony.[31] That same year, Rexha also wrote and was featured on Cash Cash's single "Take Me Home", which peaked within the top ten of the charts in Australia and the United Kingdom.[22][30]
On March 21, 2014, Rexha released her debut single, "I Can't Stop Drinking About You".[22] The song peaked at number 22 on the US Top Heatseekers chart.[32] The music video was released on August 12, 2014. The video was inspired by imagery from films such as Girl, Interrupted and Melancholia.[33] In November 2014, Rexha was featured on rapper Pitbull's song "This Is Not a Drill".[34] and in September 2014, she was picked as Elvis Duran's Artist of the Month and was featured on NBC's Today show hosted by Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb, where she performed live her single "I Can't Stop Drinking About You".
In December 2014, Rexha released two more singles, "I'm Gonna Show You Crazy" and "Gone".[35][36] On May 12, 2015, she released her debut EP, I Don't Wanna Grow Up, through Warner Bros.

The song did not originally credit Rexha, despite the fact that she sings the chorus and is featured on background vocals. Eventually, in June 2015, she was given a credit for her work.[37][38]
In January 2015, Rexha co-wrote and was featured on G-Eazy's "Me, Myself I". The song peaked at number seven on the Billboard Hot 100[39] and at number one on the US Pop Songs chart.[40] The song was originally titled "I Don't Need Anything" and was intended as a song for Rexha herself. Instead, she brought the song idea to G-Eazy and was featured during the chorus.[41]
Rexha met Nicki Minaj's manager, Gee Roberson, and asked if Minaj would contribute to a new song. In March 2016, Rexha released her single, called "No Broken Hearts" featuring Nicki Minaj.[26][42] In April 2016, the music video was released, directed by Dave Meyer.[43] The video has accumulated over 265 million views on YouTube.[44]
On July 29, 2016, Rexha and Dutch DJ and record producer Martin Garrix released their single, "In the Name of Love". It peaked at number 24 on the US Billboard Hot 100, at number four on US Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart and entered the top 10 in several countries, including the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Italy, and New Zealand. The music video was released on August 23, 2016, on Martin Garrix's YouTube channel.[45]

In support of the EP and American singer and songwriter Marc E. Bassy's debut album, Rexha planned to go on a co-headlining tour across the United States: the Bebe Bassy Tour, in October 2017.
