Bebe Rexha has left fans in a puddle of tears with her heartbreaking new single, ‘Sabotage’. The pop ballad was released alongside a symbolic music video set inside an abandoned house. It features stunning scenes, including imagery of flowers and slowly drowning in water before ending with Bebe setting fire to the house.
“Sabotage is one of the most vulnerable songs on my new album. It’s just as beautiful as it is painfully honest. I admit to getting in my own way when things are going well. I know I am not alone in experiencing self-sabotage during life’s most precious moments, and this ballad is an acknowledgment that sometimes we are our own worst enemy,” Bebe said about the song.
It certainly seems to have struck a chord with fans, as many turned to social media to praise the song for its relatable lyrics and message.

‘Sabotage’ is the third single from Bebe’s upcoming album and follows her recent tracks ‘Sacrifice’ and Doja Cat collab ‘Baby, I’m Jealous’. Hopefully, we won’t have to wait too long for the full record, as earlier this week she officially revealed its title: Better Mistakes.
We’re ready whenever you are, Bebe!
