Rebbeca Marie Gomez [1] [2] was born on March 2, 1997, [2] in Inglewood, California. [3] She is the daughter of Mexican American parents Alejandra "Alex" [1] and Francisco "Frank" Gomez. All four of her grandparents are from Jalisco, Mexico, while her parents and most of her family were born in the United States. [9] Gomez has two brothers, and a younger sister. [10] In December 2017, she revealed she has a half-sister who was eighteen years old. [11] Gomez grew up in Moreno Valley, and at the age of nine her family lost their home and moved into the converted garage of her grandparents' house due to financial problems. [1] Gomez began working part-time jobs to help support her family, doing commercials and voice over work. [1] She had what she described as a "mid-life crisis" when she was nine years old, and decided she wanted to pursue a music career. [1] She was quoted as stating "That was literally my mid-life crisis when I was nine years old. That's when I felt like, 'OK, I gotta get my life together. What am I gonna do?' I pushed that on myself at a younger age than the average kid because at the time my family had lost our home. I've always been more mature for my age, so I was already understanding what they were going through. And I just thought, 'How can I help them?'" [12] She initially attended public school, though had to undergo home schooling due to issues with bullying. [12] She claimed that at one point she was jumped by multiple girls while in the restroom, and was a frequent target due to her jobs in the entertainment industry. [13]
Gomez appeared in the short film El Tux (2008) as Claudia Gómez and as Nina in the Discovery Channel television film La estación de la Calle Olvera (2008). [14] [15] She became a member of a girl group named G.L.A.M. in 2009, [16] [17] and later joined B.C.G., another girl group. [18] She filmed a music video as part of G.L.A.M. for a song titled "JellyBean" in 2009. During this time, Gomez also began recording herself singing and rapping songs using Garageband, and created a YouTube account to post covers of popular songs online. [12] She also began writing her own songs, and by the age of thirteen had taught herself how to play guitar. [1] Gomez befriended production duo The Jam when she was thirteen, who liked Gomez's written work. [13] The trio began working on material together, resulting in the covers of the songs "Otis" (2011), "Lighters" (2011), "Novacane" (2011) "Take Care" (2011), "Boyfriend" (2011), and an original song "Turn the Music Up". [13] These songs were meant to be part of a mixtape, titled @itsbeckygomez, though this project never came to fruition. [1] Her cover of "Otis" caught the attention of producer Dr. Luke, who had worked with artists including Britney Spears and Miley Cyrus, among others. [1] Luke scheduled a meeting with Gomez, and asked her to play guitar for him; he later signed her to his Kemosabe Records record label, through RCA Records. [13] In reference to her video clip for "Otis", Luke claimed "I would have signed her off that video alone. I was 100 percent in. She has so much personality and her voice just pops out of the speakers. Then I met her and discovered she could also sing and play the guitar and I thought, 'This is even better.' Then I found out she could write and it was like, 'What else are you going to tell me, that you’re also Van Gogh?' Her potential is limitless." [13] Shortly after signing with the label, Gomez began work on her debut album. [1]
In August, while working on her debut album, Gomez released her first song, "Problem", featuring will.i.am, which was subsequently remixed into "Problem (The Monster Remix)" in September, for the Sony Pictures Animation film Hotel Transylvania ; the song served as a promotional single and also appeared in the movie in the end credits. [19] Gomez and will.i.am filmed a music video for the song; it features both artists in a hotel while scenes from the movie also appear. [1] She is featured on Cody Simpson's song "Wish U Were Here" (2012), serviced as the second single from his debut studio album on August 7. [20] She worked with Cher Lloyd on the song "Oath", released on October 2 as the fourth single from her debut album. [21] The single had some commercial success, becoming Gomez's first song to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. [22] The track was later certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), denoting sales of 500,000 copies in the country. [23] She also worked with Michel Teló on a remix of his song "Ai Se Eu Te Pego" on his UK EP on October 14.

[26] [27] Gomez filmed a music video in her neighborhood, with Lopez herself making a cameo in the clip. [28] Entertainment Tonight described the version to have "give[n] Jenny's NY-based tune a West Coast slant". [29] Later, on May 6, Gomez released a new song, "Play It Again", for digital download. [30] The track served as a promotional single, and was not an official single released by Gomez. On July 13, Gomez released her debut extended play, also titled Play It Again .
