Quetions About Good News Album Review (2020)
Why did Megan title the album “Good News”?
I feel like I had to name my album Good News because we’ve been hearing so much bad news. It’s like ‘Okay, look, Megan Thee Stallion finally coming with the good news.’
What has the artist said about the recording process?
When I started recording the songs for this album, I knew it sounded like album songs. And I’m like, ‘This is it. This is the time. Quarantine is happening, everybody’s basically in the house. I have everybody’s attention. Everybody wants new music and you can sit down and actually absorb it.’
What has the artist said about the collaborations on this project?
Everybody that I collab with I have like a personal relationship with them, like, those are my friends. So it’s easy to make music with people that you know, cuz the vibe is just gonna be genuine and it’s going to be too good, like, me and Thug, me and City Girls, like, we all started hanging out. So it’s like, okay, I know this is what you’re gonna sound good on, I know the chemistry gonna be too fast. So that’s how I really just put my collabs together. Good News Album Review

On March 6, 2020, after having a dispute with her label for trying to “stop [her] music from being released,” Megan put out her third EP entitled Suga. It contained the viral hit “Savage,” a song about self-empowerment. The Beyoncé-assisted remix of the track, released in late April 2020 became her first number one single on the Billboard Hot 100 chart shortly after.
Explicit and sexually risqué, yet empowering lyrics combined with effortless flows became Thee Stallion’s signature sound. Megan strived to make all of the things that she thought sounded cool coming from her favorite male rappers, sound cool coming from her too, but as a woman. From her sexual personality on the mic, to her flow, to her nicknames (Tina Montana/Tina Snow), Pimp C made a heavy impression on Thee Stallion as a fellow Texan. Yet, while many of Pimp C’s lyrics were seen as sexist, Thee Stallion shows that coming from her, sexually forward lyrics are just as much an expression of personality as any other lyrics are.
Megan is also currently a full-time college student, studying health administration. Good News Album Review
