Music Biz: 22-year-old Songwriter behind some of Rihanna’s biggest hits – Bibi Bourelly
22 year old songwriter Bibi Bourelly made her name writing hits like “Bitch Better Have My Money” along with other songs for Rihanna, Kanye West and Usher. Despite working with Kanye West, Usher, and Selena Gomez, 22-year-old Bibi Bourelly remains grounded: she never feels overwhelmed by the icons she fraternizes with, and aims to keep her outlook original and unaffected by fame.
Bourelly was born to a Moroccan and Haitian background in Berlin, and spent time living in DC. She rebelled at school, insisting that her future was on the stage, not in the classroom, and relocated to LA after linking with a manager who discovered her on Instagram. Soon, she was working with Rihanna, writing her platinum-selling single “Bitch Better Have My Money” as well as the songs “Yeah, I Said It”, “Higher”, and “Pose” for her sixth album Anti.
