Bebe Rexha on Writing Her Hit Song ‘I’m Good (Blue)’ (Exclusive)

[@Timothyrpiano]

I’m excited for her new album. I know she wasn’t happy about how “Better Mistakes” performed but it was still a decent project with some great songs. I’m also loving “I’m Good.” It’s such a fun song to run to. Also excited for this new collaboration with this male Latin artist and DJ; and to see her perform at Jingle Ball

[@MEGIDIOT]

Her songs weren’t doing so well commercially (despite being really good) and she was depressed on Tiktok less than a year ago. This is so inspiring!

[@GoogleAccount-gc1lc]

I like her songs.

[@MEGIDIOT]

@@GoogleAccount-gc1lc me too, it’s just that they hit a speed bump in sales this past year.

[@Cornelius-kg3zm]

You're right, she deserves more than that

[@andwhat8291]

She should be as good as Nikki M¹

[@callumsinclair2562]

Her Label ruined her last album. They added a bunch of features to try boost streams, they made the songs super short to try make them go tiktok viral and Bebe herself basically just didn’t even care about the record anymore

[@nicholasgarrick8855]

Bebe rexha is so underate as a artist really hope she get more recognition because she is so talented❤️.

[@rshanthapa2509]

I don't think she's underrated

[@chrisfinch8637]

For years, I wasn't into Bebe Rexha, until this song, as well as learning what she's been through in her life, as a singer/person. After making such a song that heavily samples a song, from what I adored when I was about three years of age, I can say that she has made me feel so nostalgic again, with other thanks to David Guetta and Eiffel 95. Bless all of them, dearly!

[@photographerarifa6483]

I think she's right people wants nostalgic songs or maybe am the one of them who love nostalgic😇😇✌️✌️ Love Bebe Rexa✌️

It's not an anti-Blue song because Eiffel 65 lyrics are not about being down/depressed. I like how Bebe says, "We wrote that." No, you changed the lyrics. Don't get me wrong it's a catchy tune but it's Eiffel 65's melody that still drives this popularity, not the words.
