I&#8217;m happy, finally. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I see the light on the other side of the tunnel. It was getting a little scary there for a second. I&#8217;m happier than I&#8217;ve ever been, to be honest. Just to be surrounded by people that actually care about me \u2014 the energy is completely different.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Grammy-nominated pop star explained that New Religion samples Faithless&#8217; iconic 1995 dance anthem Insomnia \u2014 a track she has had a personal connection to since childhood.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe pop star recalled: &#8220;My uncle, when I was growing up in New York City, was trying to be a DJ. I remember him playing that for me the first time. And then I would hear it throughout my life \u2014 not knowing, when I was younger, where the song was coming from or who the artist was. And then as I got older, I was like, okay, this song was iconic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe singer \u2014 who has previously written for the likes of Rihanna and Selena Gomez \u2014 said the interpolation actually came about organically in the studio, rather than by design.<\/p>\n<p>\nBebe explained: &#8220;It didn&#8217;t even come into my mind about wanting to remake it. It just fell into our laps when we were in the studio. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;We took the sample, we worked around it, we were just having fun. And then, of course, I had to go through the whole process of getting the blessing from Sister Bliss and Rollo and the whole Faithless camp.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/feel-happier-ever-says-bebe-rexha-1438750.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>6 March 2026 Bebe Rexha feels &#8220;happier&#8221; than ever after becoming an independent artist.
