Better Mistakes, Bebe Rexha’s sophomore album, is out tonight, and the tracklist is jam-packed with great collaborators — while there isn’t a single metal song on it. The album was scheduled to be released last year as a follow-up to her 2018 debut, Expectations, but the singer decided to postpone it due to the pandemic. The rising pop star has songs on the album with Rick Ross, Lil Uzi Vert, Pink Sweats, and even Doja Cat, so it’s almost certain to be a hit.
But what about the album’s first track? It features Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker, who has recently made headlines for his current relationship with Kourtney Kardashian, and his collaboration with Rexha sounds like it will be a hit. She’s been teasing the song on Instagram for a while now, and their collaborative video debuted tonight alongside her album. Of course, the resulting video is just as crazy as you’d imagine, with Barker keeping things in check on the drums while Bebe struts her stuff all over the stage, letting everyone know that her mental health problems are real. The resulting track is a noir telling of what it’s like to deal with prescriptions that need adjusting, and even thoughts of jumpers on the 101.
