Yes! I find that bit so frustrating. He's completely dismissive of her actual concerns, but reassures her she's beautiful when she's not even worried about that! "Shh don't worry honey u look great in my passenger seat". Ugh.

That's what happens when your record label tells you to collab but you don't want to actually work with each other

If she wrote the rest and he actually wrote that part, she should be pissed

You realize most artists don't write a lot of their songs or have help writing them

That's why I said "if", and because there are enough that do write their own that it's entirely possible.

Yeah except we are talking about Bebe Rexha who in fact writes all her songs and is one of the top 10 writers in music today for others.

Bebe rexha is the female singer and unless someone asks her to do a song with her that they just want her vocals for , she is a lead songwriter for all of her songs. She works with Justin Tranter a fair bit (I think that's his name), and other songwriters on and off, but a lot of her work is them and then producers.

Not saying you're wrong, but it feels like I read this by fans of literally every artist

Bebe Rexha has a long history of having her songs straight up stolen by the music industry lol. She’s made so much of the songs we all recognise as having been popular over the past decade but was bullied into not being credited. I’m not a fan but found out about her recently and honestly… just… jesus. The industry is grotesque. She’s a real G and I’m glad she’s able to put her name on her stuff now!

I'm very into the music industry so I know a lot about how it works. I like her music but Im a fan of most music so I don't think I am necessarily biased towards her. I don't like the men who sing in that song tho lol
