“It was a breakthrough for me because I felt like I was accepting myself, my anxiety, the panic, all my
fl aws,” Rexha says. Eminem remade “Monster Under My Bed” into “The Monster,” featuring Rihanna. The
song spent fi ve weeks at #1 and sold more than 3 million copies. Fans soon discovered Rexha’s original
demo online, and the buzz around her has been building since.
Fresh off her songwriting success, Rexha released “I Can’t Stop Drinking About You,” an EDM-driven
anthem about drinking through a breakup that Billboard describes as a “beguiling solo debut.” It
received nearly half a million SoundCloud plays in less than 3 months.
A self-professed EDM addict, with infl uences ranging across the genres of Alternative and Pop, Rexha
has written with producers Zedd, Max Martin, Stargate and Fraser T Smith, and has a song on the
upcoming David Guetta album. She most recently made a Billboard appearance writing for and
singing on Cash Cash’s dance hit “Take Me Home,” which has spent over 13 weeks on the Hot 100.
Singles like “I Can’t Stop Drinking About You,” produced by The Monsters and the Strangerz, are just
one reason why in early 2014, Billboard named Rexha an artist that will defi ne the year. She’s keeping
focused on the future as she works with Warner Bros. Records on her debut album.
