‘Frustrated’ Bebe Rexha lashes out at ‘hopeless’ music industry: ‘I have been undermined’
Bebe Rexha wants to take down the music industry after being “silenced” and “undermined” for years — just weeks after she dragged G-Eazy for treating her poorly.
“I could bring down a BIG chunk of this industry. I AM frustrated. I Have been UNDERMINED,” the “I’m Good” singer, 34, wrote in a rant on X Tuesday.
“I’ve been so quiet for the longest time. I haven’t seen the signs even though people constantly are bringing them up and they have been SO OBVIOUS,” she continued.
The pop star claimed that she has been “punished” by the music industry when she has “spoken up.”
“Things must change or I’m telling ALL of my truths. The good the bad and the ugly,” she said.
Rexha said that her issues with the industry are coming from a place of “sadness” and not “anger.”
“I’m sitting in my hotel room in London Crying my eyes out,” she said in another X post. “I’ve felt hopeless for the longest time. I’ve been walking a lot through this city and meeting fans and they have really ignited something inside of me.”
She expressed her gratitude to her fans for giving her “strength” amid her struggles, and when one troll accused her of going on a rant to promote her new single, Rexha boldly hit back.
“Doing this during promoting a new single ‘I’m The Drama’ is perfect timing – marketing or not!” one person wrote, to which the singer replied, “Marketing? I have no budget for that. IM FED UP.”
When a supporter inquired what was stopping her from speaking her truth, Rexha claimed, “THEY PUNISH YOU.”
Another fan wondered what exactly the music producer was referring to and Rexha wrote back, “You haven’t even heard 5 percent. You have NO IDEA.”
The “I’m a Mess” artist lashed out at the music industry nearly two weeks after she claimed G-Eazy did “s–tty things” to her and called her “Me, Myself, & I” collaborator an “ungrateful loser.”
Rexha blasted G-Eazy for being a coward and not reaching out himself after his management team contacted her to collaborate with the rapper.
“You’re lucky people are liking you again. Cause I could go in on all the s–tty things you’ve done and how you treated me after giving you your only real hit. Btw the answer is no. Hope you good,” she wrote in the since-deleted social media post.
Rexha didn’t clarify what exactly G-Eazy did to sour their relationship when they worked together on the 2015 hit.
She went on to tell her fans that she deleted her comments about G-Eazy because she felt they were “negative,” but that she fully backs her message.
“Someone from my team had me take down my Instagram Story. I decided to remove it because it felt very negative and toxic,” she wrote on X on June 13. “Sometimes trauma can lead us to react that way, and that period of my life was traumatizing.”
She continued, “I am writing this because I regret taking it down and I want to say that I still stand by what I said.”
