It has been a difficult few years for Megan Thee Stallion. The Houston-bred recording artist lost her mother in 2019, then she had to deal with getting shot in 2020 and the years-long legal process to convict Tory Lanez for the incident.
After a California jury found Lanez guilty of three felony charges in December 2022, it now appears Megan is back to regularly making music. Over the weekend, the 28-year-old rapper suggested new tunes could be coming in the near future.
On Sunday (July 23), Megan Thee Stallion shared a short video on her Instagram Story. The clip features the Roc Nation performer sitting in what appears to be a home recording studio. She added the caption, “I’m back in that mode. It’s that time.”
Megan Thee Stallion has released two studio albums—2020’s platinum-certified Good News and 2022’s Traumazine. Both projects peaked in the Top 5 of the Billboard 200 chart.
The self-described Hot Girl Coach also scored Billboard 200 Top 10 entries with EPs and mixtapes such as 2019’s Fever, 2020’s Suga and 2021’s Something for Thee Hotties.
In addition, Megan Thee Stallion reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart on two occasions. Her hit single “Savage” led the chart in 2020. She also teamed up with Cardi B for “WAP,” which remained at No. 1 for four weeks.
Last year saw Megan collaborate with Dua Lipa (“Sweetest Pie”), Future (“Pressurelicious”), Key Glock (“Ungrateful”) and Latto (“Budget”) for Hot 100 entries. Solo records such as “Megan’s Piano,” “Plan B” and “Her” made it onto the chart as well.
Megan The Stallion returned to the stage multiple times over the last several weeks. Her twerk-heavy set at the 2023 Essence Festival in New Orleans caused some controversy. She’ll also perform at the 2023 Global Citizen Festival in New York City later this year.
