I can’t lie I’m a little bummed. BUT I could either lay in bed or get the fuck up go to the studio, write a new song and then finish the video edit for my new single Last Hurrah. I’m not laying in bed.

Best New Artist nominee Bebe Rexha expressed her disappointment to not winning the award. Rexha was also nominated for best country duo/group performance for her song, "Meant to Be" but lost in that category as well. She explained that because everyone kept telling her how many records "Meant To Be" broke, she expected a win. "But We lost a CMA, Billboard, Vma, Grammy. Zilch," she tweeted.
Days ago, Rexha snapped on a crowd she was performing for because no one was singing along to "Meant To Be." She yelled at the crowd, "I worked too hard for this moment... You’re going to sing the fucking words if you know the fucking song."
Everyone kept telling me how many records Meant To Be has broken and how it deserved an award. But We lost a CMA, Billboard, Vma, Grammy. Zilch. And then I thought of what @Drake said last night.

“You’ve already won if you have people singing your songs word for word”
I still feel like a winner. I’m alive and I get to make more music.

If it's meant to be, it'll be. Baby just let it be.
