Bebe Rexha blasted the music industry with a series of fiery X-posts on Tuesday.

Rexha, 34, first found success as a songwriter, penning hits for the likes of Eminem, Selena Gomez, Tyler Hubbard and Nick Jonas. She’s released three studio albums of her own, as well as appearing on numerous chart-topping singles.

The “Say My Name” singer, who has been signed to Warner Records since the beginning of his career, claimed he could “disrupt a huge chunk of this industry” in a series of posts.

“I am frustrated. I have felt betrayed. For so long I have been silent,” Rexha wrote. “I was unaware of the signs even though people constantly bring them up and they are so obvious. And when I spoke up I was silenced and punished by this industry.”

“Things have to change or I’m going to tell my whole truth: the good, the bad and the ugly.”

A representative for Rexha did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

When fans wondered, “What happened again?” she replied, “Again? I haven’t even listened to five percent of it. I have no idea.”

One fan suggested, “No one should be allowed to take your name out of ‘Hey Mama,'” to which Rexha simply replied, “My love. That? Compared to everything else you don’t know? That’s child’s play.”

David Guetta’s 2015 song “Hey Mama” was co-written by Rexha, Guetta, and several others. Although he was initially credited as a co-writer, he was not credited as a vocalist on the song, which also features Nicki Minaj and Afrojack, but this has since been rectified.

When asked why the pop star had stopped speaking out, she replied, “Because they’ll punish you.”

Another follower suggested that Bebe was garnering support for her latest single, “I’m The Drama,” but Rexha denied this.

“Marketing? I don’t have the budget for it. I’m so sick of it,” she wrote.

“This isn’t just coming from a place of anger. It’s sadness,” Rexha assured fans. “I’m sitting in a hotel room in London, crying and bawling my eyes out. I’ve felt hopeless for a long time. I’ve been walking around this city a lot, meeting my fans, and they’ve really ignited something inside of me.”
