Bebe Rexha says she could “destroy a large portion” of the music industry if she “talked” about her real experiences.

In a series of frustrated posts she shared on X on Tuesday, the tearful hitmaker hinted at things happening in the music industry that she could reveal.

“I could destroy a BIG part of this industry. I AM FRUSTRATED. I have been Compromised,” Bebe wrote. “I have been so quiet for a long time.”

“I didn’t see the signs even though people keep mentioning them and they’re SO OBVIOUS,” continued the 34-year-old, who has collaborated with Dolly Parton and others.

“And when I did speak up, I was silent (sic) and PUNISHED by this industry. Things need to change or I will speak ALL my truths. The good, the bad and the ugly,” she vowed in a tweet that has been viewed 2.5 million times.

In the comments, one fan noted that Bebe was not originally listed as a featured artist on David Guetta’s 2015 song “Hey Mama,” despite co-writing the song and recording the chorus and backing vocals.

“No one should be forgiven for having your name removed from Hey Mama,” wrote fan @shadyjessicuh.

Bebe then quoted her tweet, responding, “My love. This? Compared to all the other things you don’t know about? This is child’s play.”

She also claimed that fans haven’t even heard “5 percent” of what she went through publicly, adding: “Y’ALL HAVE NO CLUE.”

The Take Me Home singer was asked if she was sharing the post to promote her new song I’m The Drama, which was released on Sunday.

Fan @emmamaezin joked, “Doing this while promoting new single I’m The Drama, perfect timing – marketing or not!” to which Bebe replied, “Marketing? I don’t have the budget for this. I’M SICK OF IT.”

The singer soon returned to X and admitted she “felt hopeless.”

“It’s not just anger. It’s sadness. I’m sitting in my hotel room in London and crying,” she said.

“I felt hopeless for a long time. I walked around this city a lot and met fans, and they really ignited something in me.”

Bebe also thanked her fans, with whom she is often honest, admitting that they “gave her strength” as they rallied around the star, praising her strength and authenticity.

The US star, who had her first UK No.1 single with her 2022 collaboration with David Guetta on I’m Good (Blue) , last made headlines just a month ago when she was forced to turn people away from one of her gigs.

In June 2023, the singer filed assault charges after she suffered a bruise under her eye while singing and led from the stage by medics.

This incident started a strange situation lots of flying objects at concertswith all of you Adam Lambert Down Harry Styles being hit by various unwanted objects.

Just when it seemed like history was going to repeat itself, Bebe cut short her entire performance in Green Bay, Wisconsin at the Summer Fun Days Showcase.

As security escorted about 10 people out of the concert, she told fans, “Get out, get out… OR if you want to punch me in the face, I happen to have pressed charges against another guy, I’d like to get rich, so speak up, honey.”

“But I don’t… I’m not inviting you to do that, please, it was a joke,” she quickly added to discourage such behavior.
