By 2017, several of Cutler's songs (including "Your Shirt") garnered numerous streams and led to collaborations that year with acts like Louis The Child ("Slow Down Love"), ayokay ("The Shine"), Kidswaste ("Tonight"), and Kasbo ("Found You"). She signed a record deal with Ultra Records in late 2017 and released her first EP, "Snow In October". After touring with Quinn XCII in early 2018, Cutler released two independent mixtapes, "Sleeping With Roses" and "Sleeping With Roses II." She also went on her first two nationwide headlining tours in support of each mixtape, both of which sold out in advance.
In March 2019, she signed to Republic Records and released a joint EP, "brent", with friend and label-mate Jeremy Zucker shortly after. The EP features the single "you were good to me", which they performed live on The Today Show. It was also pressed on a limited edition white vinyl through the retailer Urban Outfitters. It was limited to a run of 1000 copies pressed. In May 2019, Cutler collaborated with Kygo on the single, "Not OK". It became her third collaboration (after "Slow Down Love" and "The Shine") to appear on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Songs chart, peaking at number 9.
In late 2019, Cutler began releasing new singles, including "How To Be Human" and "Lucky" (featuring Alexander 23). Along with "Sad Tonight", the songs served as the primary singles for her debut studio album, How To Be Human, released on January 17, 2020 by Republic Records. On January 23, 2020 she performed the lead single, "Sad Tonight", on Late Night With Seth Meyers. That song became Cutler's first entry on the Billboard Mainstream Top 40 airplay chart, peaking at number 32 in March 2020. In April 2020, she was featured alongside Quinn XCII on the Louis The Child track, "Little Things".
Cutler was also slated to perform at Coachella 2020, which was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In June 2020, she released a version of her song "Crazier Things" which features Noah Kahan.

Chelsea Cutler Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(I didn't choose it)
I know you're scared I'm gonna lose it
(I'm gonna lose it)
And now I'm just waiting for someone to take me
Tell me that I'm doing fine
'Cause you won't fuck off of my mind
(You won't fuck off of my mind)
I'm sorry, and I hate the old me
I don't know how not to be lonely
I didn't believe that (believe)
Loving was easy
I'm sorry for all of my faces
But you're giving me all your patience
And I'm never leaving
And you are the reason
You are the reason (reason)
You are the reason
I know I'm lost, I couldn't fake it
(I couldn't fake it)
It's all too much for you to take, yeah
(For you to take, yeah)
And now I'm just waiting for someone to take me
And tell me that we'll be alright

Chelsea Cutler's song The Reason is a heartfelt ballad about the struggles of mental health and the ultimate hope found in true love. The song opens with Cutler admitting to being a mess and feeling like she didn't have a choice in the matter. She acknowledges that her partner is scared that she will lose it, but she is waiting for someone to tell her that she is doing fine. Cutler's partner won't leave her mind, and she uses the chorus to express that they are the reason she is pushing through.
Cutler then apologizes for her past mistakes and for being unable to escape the loneliness that haunts her. She explains that she didn't think loving someone would be easy, and she is grateful for her partner's patience. The song ends with Cutler waiting for that someone to tell her that everything will be alright.
The message of the song is one of vulnerability and honesty. Cutler isn't afraid to bare her soul and express her inner struggles, but she is also hopeful that love can conquer all. The theme of mental health and love is a powerful one, and The Reason resonates with anyone who has experienced the pain of mental illness or the transformative power of love.
