The Brooklyn-born singer came up as a songwriter, grinding for years before she landed a major-label deal of her own\u2014and then spent much of that time under contract feeling like she was playing a part, chasing an idea of what a pop star was supposed to look like. Following 2023\u2019s Bebe and the completion of her deal, DIRTY BLONDE is her first project as an independent artist, named for the striking hair color that makes her feel most like herself: uncompromising and unapologetic, even when she\u2019s messy.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6637\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6637\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/streamapse.com\/Music\/?p=6421\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6637\" src=\"http:\/\/streamapse.com\/Magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/DIRTY-BLONDE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/streamapse.com\/Magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/DIRTY-BLONDE.jpg 300w, http:\/\/streamapse.com\/Magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/DIRTY-BLONDE-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6637\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><em>Stream Now!

On \u201cHysteria\u201d and \u201cNew Religion\u201d (which respectively sample club classics \u201cMeet Her at the Loveparade\u201d by Da Hool and Faithless\u2019 \u201cInsomnia\u201d), she finds liberation and healing under the strobing lights of the dance floor, lost in the euphoric blur of pounding drums and hypnotic synth melodies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Eventually, the numbness wore off, and she allowed herself to become vulnerable again in her writing. \u201ci like you better than me\u201d is an emotional gut punch about comparison and insecurity, \u201cThe Way I Want You\u201d longs for a love that\u2019s unrequited, and \u201cTime\u201d reflects on a relationship with regret: \u201cSo many good times but I never had a good time.\u201d But Rexha\u2019s having fun now too. On the swaggering baddie anthem \u201c$.H.I.T,\u201d she\u2019s quick to remind you that she\u2019s the \u201csugar honey iced tea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/streamapse.com\/Ticketstream\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6585\" src=\"http:\/\/streamapse.com\/Magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/TICKETSTREAM_BANNER2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"968\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"http:\/\/streamapse.com\/Magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/TICKETSTREAM_BANNER2.jpg 968w, http:\/\/streamapse.com\/Magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/TICKETSTREAM_BANNER2-300x78.jpg 300w, http:\/\/streamapse.com\/Magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/TICKETSTREAM_BANNER2-768x201.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 968px) 100vw, 968px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Every product\/service is selected by editors.
