'In the Name of Love' with Martin Garrix

Bebe teamed up with Dutch DJ Martin Garrix for this 2016 hit. It peaked at Number 9 in the UK charts and was certified Platinum in the UK. Martin said of working with Bebe on the record: "First of all, I love to hear her voice. I met her earlier this year in LA. She played me some of her demos and just straight away after the first song, I fell in love with her voice because it's so unique it's so different.

"The team and I were brainstorming and then Bebe ended up doing it, with a lot of sending back and forth, lots of shaping and polishing the song and then we finally came up with the version how the world knows it right now."

'Girls' by Rita Ora featuring Cardi B, Bebe Rexha and Charli XCX

Released in May 2018, the song peaked at Number 22 in the UK chart and was certified Silver by the BPI. Rita described the song: "These past few years I've been so inspired by all the strong women I've seen who aren't afraid to be themselves.

"For those who aren't afraid to rule the world, this is our anthem. A celebration of love. And of course, thank you to all the fellow boss women who so kindly graced this song with me — each representing who they are and where they are from."

The song was criticised by LGBTQ+ communities, many of whom described the song as having "harmful" lyrics. Bebe responded to the criticism, telling Entertainment Weekly: "My sexual life is nobody's business... but we're singing a song about kissing girls and that remains true to who I am. It's the life that I live and it's honest to me.

"People automatically went for the negative instead of saying: 'Well maybe these girls do kiss girls, maybe Bebe is bi.' You don't know about my sexual orientation, so I felt disrespected."
