Megan Thee Stallion To Release Collaboration With RM From BTS
Megan Thee Stallion have announced a collaboration with BTS star RM, which will be released later this week.
The US rapper has joined forces with the South Korean star on the tune Neva Play, which is out on Friday, 6 September. She teased that she has never heard the 29-year-old K-pop star “rap in this style before”.
Megan wrote on Instagram: “This is one of my favourite RM verses I’ve heard! I’ve never heard him rap in this style before.”
Megan previously joined forces with the boy band on their track Butter in 2021. Discussing working with them in a YouTube vlog at the time, Megan said: “Whenever we do another song, I feel like we gotta do it big. We gotta do a video, and it’s gonna be happening.”
RM responded: “After we listened to your rap recording [for the remix of Butter], everybody was so impressed and so grateful.”
Megan added: “No, I was so happy and I was so grateful. I was like, ‘I wanna do a song with BTS’, and then when it came up. I was like, ‘They know me?’ I was so happy.”
With Butter, however, Megan found herself in a sticky situation with her record label. The Grammy winner accused 1501 Certified Entertainment of preventing the track from being released in a petition filed in a Texas court. In the end, a judge granted her the permission to release the remix.
Elsewhere in Megan Thee Stallion news, it was recently revealed she was set to host the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards. It was revealed on Thursday that the rapper will host this year’s MTV VMAs, which will be broadcast live from the UBS Arena in New York on 11 September.
As well as hosting, Megan is nominated for five awards at the event, including Best Hip-Hop and Best Collaboration, which she shares with rapper GloRilla. The artist has previously won two VMAs, including Best Hip-Hop in 2020.
