"According to the second sentence of her Wikipedia page, Bebe Rexha is "best known for her collaborations with other artists" ... 'Expectations' isn't flawless, but it's a compelling re-introduction to an underrated artist - one capable of putting her own stamp on current pop sounds. On this evidence, Rexha's Wikipedia page will soon be due an update".

"As Ferrari proves, Rexha can belt in that strained, bluesy fashion that connotes authenticity - so it's baffling trying to work out why her vocals are often lagged in Auto-Tune: she sounds like she's drowning on Self Control and malfunctioning on the horrid Mine. The songwriting - about bad girls and good boys in miserable, moneyed relationships - is precisely as deep as you'd expect. Poptimism finds its hard ceiling".

"Amerikanske Bebe Rexha er sangskriveren i kulissen, der nu bliver popstjerne ... 'Expectations' er ikke country, men refrænsikker og velskrevet pop i skiftende former, der fra lumre hiphopbeats og salsafornemmelser til klaverballader og akustisk guitar kredser om de menneskelige fejl, vi slæber rundt på. Der er (for) mange sange, men en ret stor del af dem vil havne på playlisterne i år".
