Why Megan Thee Stallion’s Next Album Is the Most Important of Her Career

After securing her first unaccompanied Hot 100 No. 1 hit with "Hiss," can Megan Thee Stallion maintain her momentum and deliver her best album yet.

Tramauzine’s singles, including “Pressurelicious” with Future, also missed the mark, as did her subsequent records “Her” and “Ungrateful.” “Sweetest Pie,” her joint effort with Dua Lipa, enjoyed radio success, but it wasn’t enough to move the needle for Megan, spending just two weeks on the Streaming Songs chart. Megan’s distractions seemed to get the best of her: From the Tory Lanez saga to her fallout with ex-beau Pardison Fontaine to her back-and-forth court dealings with her former label, 1501 Entertainment, her attention has been too divided for her to build off her wins and recapture earlier momentum. Meanwhile, her frequent collaborator Cardi B has found a different road to recent relevance, putting her remix stamp on underground hits like GloRilla’s “Tomorrow,” and FendiDa Rappa’s “Point Me to the Slut’s” and helping them go mainstream.
