A Future Household Name

Sometimes, when I read emails from a label promoting their acts, I laugh out loud. That happened when I read the following paragraphs:

MEGAN THEE STALLION RELEASES NEW PROJECT FEVER

FEATURING JUICY J AND DA BABY


Off the heels of a standout Rolling Loud Miami festival performance, Houston based rapper and "First Lady of 300 Entertainment" as coined by Complex, Megan Thee Stallion has released her project Fever via 1501 Certified / 300 Entertainment. The highly anticipated project features Memphis hip-hop icon Juicy J and fast-rising rapper Da Baby. Fever introduces Megan's college partying persona "Hot Girl Meg" and showcases her musical versatility and growth highlighted by signature rapid-fire delivery and raunchy wordplay that incites a finely tuned mix of sweet, sensual, and savage imagery.

Prior to today's release, the single "Realer" premiered yesterday as Zane Lowe's World Record on Apple Music's Beats 1, the song serves as the opener to the 14-track project and is an anthem that demands respect while Megan keeps it real with her competition and critics alike. "Realer" follows the release of her sex-positive single "Sex Talk" and hit single "Big Ole Freak" which blew up alongside 2018's EP Tina Snow, which debuted at #11 on the iTunes Hip-Hop chart and is currently top 20 at Urban Radio. "Big Ole Freak" has accumulated over 55MM streams to date with "Freak Nasty" at 14MM streams, and "Sex Talk" at 7MM streams.

Providing a refined female perspective to the Southern rap world, she joins the likes of Trina, Missy Elliott, and a cadre of brazen internet stars including City Girls, Cupcakke, Rico Nasty, and more. Megan continues to carve her own lane while garnering press praise from Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, The Fader, and more including Complex and The Atlantic who have respectively hailed her as "Best Rapper and Album of 2018".

Megan The Stallion is well on her way to becoming an inspiring household name as not only a rapper but as an intelligent, empowering, and raw voice that is needed today. Listen to and watch her latest releases and stay tuned for more news to follow.
