Flamur Rexha, Bebe’s father, was born in Albania, but he and his family immigrated to the United States when he was 21 years old.
His interest in music from an early age earned him to learn how to use musical instruments. In fact, she taught herself to play piano and guitar. While Bebe was at Tottenville High School, she had the chance to perform in a number of plays and musicals.
Still in her teens, Bebe Rexha was signed by Samantha Cox (talent scout) after she submitted a song to be used at the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences’ annual “Grammy Day” event. It also won him the “Best Teenage Composer” award. After signing the contract, Rexha was encouraged by Samantha to take some writing lessons.
On March 21, 2014, her very first single titled, Can’t Stop Drinking On You was released to great reviews as the song reached the number 22 spot on Billboard’s The Top Heatseekers chart. Her debut studio album Expectations, which spawned the hit track, Destined To Be, was released on June 22, 2018.

Is she dating – who is her boyfriend?
Bebe Rexha’s relationship and dating profile is quite complicated. She is a passionate supporter of the LGBTQ+ community and has often described her sexuality with the term “fluid”. Nonetheless, she was involved or believed to be involved primarily with men.
Her first known relationship was with a guy named Alex. The two were together for a while, but broke up in 2015. Reportedly, the relationship was severed by Alex, who has since blocked her from accessing his Instagram page. Bebe was so hurt by the breakup that she sank into depression. However, with the help of her mother, she was able to turn the situation around by writing a song called Bab slut, an anthem according to her for strong women.
It was later said that she was in a relationship with G-easy but this was never confirmed by either party. In 2017, Bebe was single and even posted on social media that her fans called the “Rexhars” were her Valentine for that year.
