Megan Thee Stallion – born Megan Jovon Ruth Pete on February 15, 1995 – is a hip-hop performer who began rapping as a teenager growing up in Houston, Texas. She continued to rap as a health administration student at Prairie View A&M University and first rose to notoriety through a series of freestyle rap videos on her social media accounts. She released her first mixtapes - Like a Stallion and Rich Ratchet - in 2016 and her debut EP, Make It Hot, in 2017. Her Tina Snow mixtape was released in 2018 and the track “Big Ole Freak” went to number 84 on the Billboard Hot 100 in April 2019. The Fever mixtape arrived in 2019 - featuring “Sex Talk” and “Talk (Remix)” (with Khalid and Yo Gotti) - and was quickly followed by the standalone single “Hot Girl Summer” (with Nicki Minaj and Ty Dolla $ign), which became her first Top 20 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. Preceded by the gold-certified lead single “B.I.T.C.H.,” her third EP, Suga, dropped in 2020 and earned Megan Thee Stallion her first number 1 single with “Savage.” Good News, her debut studio album, was released in November 2020 and it featured cameos by SZA (“Freaky Girls”), Lil Durk (“Movie”), and DaBaby (“Cry Baby”). A compilation of previously unreleased material titled Something for the Hotties arrived later that year and cracked the Top 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 on the back of the hit single "Thot Shit." In 2022, Megan Thee Stallion began teasing the release of her second studio album through two high-profile collaborations with Dua Lipa ("Sweetest Pie") and Future ("Pressurelicious"). Featuring additional guest appearances from Latto, Rico Nasty, and Jhené Aiko, Traumazine was released to critical acclaim in August 2022 and debuted at number 4 on the Billboard 200. Preceded by the Top 20 single “Boa,” she released her third studio album, Megan, in June 2024, which went to number 1 on Billboard’s R&B / Hip-Hop Albums chart.
