Weak. I was hoping this duo would've come harder.

Forgettable tune. Her new look is similarly atrocious.
Was really rooting for her, meh.

The lead single to her debut album...like "I'm Gonna Show You Crazy" was the lead single, and "I Can't Stop Drinking About You?" Record companies need to stop with this lead-single after failed lead-singles crap. However, since she has had success with "Hey Mama" and "Me, Myself and I" as a feature - perhaps she can have a real solo hit chance (or at least get a regional hit like with "Take Me Home.") Well, I mean if either of those singles aren't on the album, then why would they be considered singles from the album? They would have been the lead single and included on her debut album if they had done well. If they aren't on her upcoming LP, it doesn't change the fact that they were both intended to be the lead single for a Bebe Rexha Lp. This is the third "LEAD SINGLE" for Beba Rexha. That's a lot of lead singles, is what I am saying. If this one doesn't do well, then it may be scrapped from her LP as well...and then we will have a fourth LEAD single...or possibly the project will be cancelled altogether.

They were both released on her debut EP. That was released one year ago. Now that she's had a little more success with her features, they're going for a full album release. And this is its lead single. I also believe "I'm Gonna Show You Crazy" was marketed as the follow up to "I Can't Stop Drinking About You", not another lead single. Not sure why this is bothering you.

I mean they haven't really had an open opportunity for her. Once they started "I'm Gonna Show You Crazy", "Hey Mama" started to take off, so they had to take their foot off the pedal for that. "I Can't Stop Drinking About You" is really the one song they've tried to push for her, and that didn't do well. She had a minor hit under her belt at the time and that was it. It makes sense why they are doing it the way they are doing it. "Take Me Home" was a very minor hit, but now she has "Hey Mama" and "Me, Myself & I" (I feel like I'm missing one?) to her résumé, so this is the best opportunity for her. This will be her (likely) first full-fledged push for a single for her. Plus, the first two singles were on her debut EP, so that completely debunks your reasoning anyways.

Of course I have the unpopular opinion that she still looks okay, but whatever...

I don't think this is that bad. It is tolerable. It sounds like a lot of other generic pop songs from 2015 to now. Nicki's verse is kinda trash, so I'm gonna assume she did this as a return the favor moment. Bebe Ora's voice on this is pretty annoying.
This would probably be better if someone else was delivering it. It sounds like a demo for another artist.

I don't mind the new look, although I prefer her old one. It looks better at different times (the Twitter post is but the single cover is sexy and the above post is cute) and she was always seems to look like someone else: she looks like Rita Ora in the Twitter post, Charli XCX on the single cover, and a young Gwen Stefani in Nicki's Instagram post.

Bebe's verses remind me of a Future track which could turn pop stations away but I can see this being big on Rhythmic. Hopefully it does well!

This is so wack. And Nicki's verse sounds like it was written by a Nicki Minaj Verse Generator, could she have phoned it in any more...

If that happens it does not magically mean "No Broken Hearts" was never at any point a "lead single." This will probably do poorly, and be re-branded a "Warm-up" single and then an announcement for "the official first single" will be made.

But no one denied "I Can't Stop Drinking About You" being called a lead single. It was and so is this. "I'm Gonna Show You Crazy" wasn't one and wasn't called one. I don't think you understand how EPs and albums work. Many labels won't invest in a full album unless singles connect. That's why many EPs are released instead. I still don't get what you're so upset about.

Still not a fan of it, burned out pretty fast and got flushed out by a bunch of other new releases. Don't get em wrong though, I love Bebe's music, although Pray deserved some justice.

Forgettable tune. Her new look is similarly atrocious. Was really rooting for her, meh. Yeah, I was rooting for her too actually, but this was one of the worst songs I've heard this year so far.
