“Meant to Be” busted down boundaries, introducing BebeRexha to country fans and expanding FLAGALine’s pop and international appeal, and blew the doors off any remaining stigma between pop artists appearing on country charts, or vice versa.

Tyler Hubbard, one-half of FGL with Brian Kelley, was in Los Angeles writing with David Garcia and Josh Miller when Rexha stopped by the studio. Initially, the intent was only for the pop singer to say hello, but spurred on by Hubbard’s wife Haley telling him as he headed into the sessions that if it was “meant to be” a song would emerge, the writers took the mantra to heart. “In a couple of hours, we had a lot of [the song] already,” Garcia says.

Earmarked for Rexha’s Warner Music EP, Garcia, Hubbard and Miller added some pop polish before quickly realizing they were making the tune too slick and stripped it back down. “It was losing the heart of what the song was,” Garcia says. “Serban [Ghenea, mixing engineer] really made it about Bebe, Tyler, [Brian], the piano and the beat, the 808. That's what [felt] the most honest to the song.”
