Megan Thee Stallion — who recently released her new album, Suga — shares why she believes she is so popular.
The 25-year-old rapper has developed a huge following on social media and YouTube, and that popularity has helped to drive her recent success.
The “Hot Girl Summer” hitmaker told the New York Times newspaper: “The main reason I am where I am today is because of the internet, but the crazy thing is I didn’t grow up online. My mom played UGK, Biggie, and Lil’ Kim, and my dad was a big Three 6 Mafia fan, so the music I was listening to was already grown.
“When I got old enough to curse and rap, I was thinking, What would Biggie think about this? Would Pimp C like this?”
Despite her online popularity, Megan doesn’t think her music reflects an internet-first approach to recording.
