After more than a decade in her career, Bebe Rexha says she’s “fed up” with the music industry. series of tweets On Tuesday, the singer claimed she had been “undermined” and silenced throughout her career and that she “could bring down a huge chunk of this industry” with what she knows.

“I am frustrated,” Rexha wrote. “I have been BURNED. I have been silent for a very long time. I didn’t see the signs even though people constantly talk about them and they are SO OBVIOUS. And when I did speak out, I was silenced and PUNISHED by this industry. Things need to change or I will tell ALL of my truths. The good, the bad and the ugly.”

Rexha didn’t elaborate, though she did respond to some commenters who wanted to know more. When one fan wrote that “no one should be forgiven” for a 2015 incident in which Rexha was notoriously not initially credited for her contribution to David Guetta, Nicki Minaj, and Afrojack’s song “Hey Mama,” Rexha replied“Compared to all the other things you don’t know? This is child’s play.” Rexha said Her tweets were “not only out of anger,” but also out of sadness. “I’m sitting in my hotel room in London, crying my eyes out. I’ve felt hopeless for a very long time,” she wrote.

On Tuesday, a follower asked Rexha what was stopping her from speaking out, to which she responded she says“THEY ARE PUNISHING YOU.”

I don’t have the budget for that. I’M FED UP.” On Wednesday, Rexha thanked his followers for checking in on him, writing: “I’m working on these issues and fighting for what I deserve.”
