Multi-platinum artist Bebe Rexha has unveiled her new single 'I Like You Better Than Me,' the lead track from her forthcoming album 'Dirty Blonde.' The song addresses themes of insecurity and industry pressures, particularly for women in Hollywood. It is available now through EMPIRE, with the album set for release on June 12.
Bebe Rexha, a multi-platinum recording artist and songwriter, released her brand-new single “I Like You Better Than Me” on February 15, 2026, through EMPIRE. This track serves as the first official offering from her upcoming album DIRTY BLONDE, scheduled to arrive on June 12.
The song provides a raw exploration of constant insecurity, harsh self-comparison, and the intense pressure of navigating a competitive industry like Hollywood, especially as a woman. Rexha explained her inspiration in a statement: “I wrote this song because I understand what it feels like to be trapped in comparison and unrealistic expectations.” She added, “This album is rooted in honesty—being real and unfiltered—which is why I wanted to release this song first. My hope is to reach anyone who has ever felt inadequate and remind them they’re not alone. Experiencing these emotions doesn’t mean you’re weak—it means you’re human.”
A preview of the upcoming visual appears in a recently released supercut, offering fans an early glimpse into the album's tone, which emphasizes Rexha’s fearless experimentation and unapologetic authenticity. The official music video is set to premiere on February 17. The single is available now on all platforms.
Rexha is recognized for her commanding vocals and genre-blending sound, with billions of worldwide streams and chart-topping hits in pop, dance, hip-hop, and country. Her catalog includes iconic songs from the past decade, and she has performed on sold-out tours and major festival stages.
