}}Megan Pete[1] (born February 15, 1995),[1] known professionally as Megan Thee Stallion, is an American rapper. She released an EP Tina Snow in June 2018.[2] She signed to 300 Entertainment in November 2018, making her the first female rapper on the label.[3]

Early life and education

Megan Thee Stallion was born and raised in Houston, Texas.[2] Her mother, Holly Thomas, rapped under the name Holly-Wood and would bring her daughter with her to recording sessions. Megan Thee Stallion began writing her own raps at age 14.[9] When she revealed to her mother that she wanted to rap, Thomas required that Megan wait until she was 21 to pursue rapping as a career.[1]

In 2013, a clip of Stallion beating her male opponents in a freestyle battle while a student at Prairie View A&M University helped her gain prominence and a digital presence.[2][9][1][14]

After taking time off school, she resumed her studies at Texas Southern University in health administration.[4][16][5] She cites Pimp C and Biggie Smalls as her biggest influences.[6][9][7][8]

Career

She adopted the name Megan Thee Stallion because she was referred to as a stallion during adolescence due to her height and beauty.[6] She is 5'10".[4][9] Megan Thee Stallion has garnered fans by posting her freestyles on her Instagram since college. She refers to her fans as "hotties", and credits her hyperactive fan base for her early success.[8] In 2016, she released her first mixtape, Rich Ratchet, and her first single "Like a Stallion" was produced by TA.[10] The next year, she released her first EP, Make It Hot.[11] One song on the EP, "Last Week in H TX," has four million YouTube views. In 2017, she released a video, "Stalli (Freestyle)" that is a rework of XXXTentacion's "Look At Me!"[12][11][13][14]

In early 2018, Megan Thee Stallion signed with 1501 Certified Ent., an indie label in Houston owned by former baseball player Carl Crawford.[2] She then performed at SXSW in March.[15] In June of that year she released a 10-song EP under the label called Tina Snow. The EP is named after her alter ego, who she describes as "a more raw version" of herself.[4] She stated in an interview that she is not afraid to talk about sexuality, nor does she feel boxed in to either the "intelligent" or "freak" dichotomy.[16] The EP was positively received by critics: Eric Torres of Pitchfork.com wrote "she provided plenty of freak anthems with quotable lyrics to wield against ain’t-shit men";[17] Revolt referred to her flow as "effortless".[18] Nandi Howard of The Fader referred to her ability to rap with "electrifying pace and precision".[2]

In November 2018, she announced that she had signed with 300 Entertainment; she is the first female rapper to be signed to the label.[3] Megan Thee Stallion stated that her next project will be called Fever, although it is unclear if this will be under 300 Entertainment or her previous label.[19]

Personal life

Megan Thee Stallion posted on Instagram on March 22, 2019, that her mother and manager, Holly Thomas, had died.[20] She stated in a separate post that her mother had died from a longstanding cancerous brain tumor.[21]
