Calling all Hotties: Megan Thee Stallion brought the heat (literally) to the 2022 iHeartRadio Awards.
As the highly publicized shooting incident that went down between them has continued to be a conversation since 2020, both parties have dealt with the ...
1501 Certified Entertainment filed a countersuit against Megan Thee Stallion over whether 'Something for Thee Hotties' counts as an album.
In her tweets, when Meg referred to “the last girl on 1501” who also felt wronged by the label, many speculated that it was Erica Banks, the “Buss It” rapper and rising rap star. In August 2021, Megan filed another suit against 1501 to permit her foray into the K-pop-stan market with a remix of “Butter,” by BTS. Her label allegedly blocked her from releasing the song, but she claimed in court documents that barring the song’s release would cause “irreparable damage” to her career. The ensuing legal clash rages on as Megan and 1501’s Crawford decide what constitutes an album in court. 1501 countersued Megan on March 21 by claiming that Something is not an album. In March 2020, Megan sued 1501 for allegedly stopping her from releasing new music, requesting that the judge throw out her current contract with the label. If the court rules in favor of 1501, Megan would be contractually obligated to release two more albums under the label. 1501 also dismissed Something as a “bullshit ass mix tape.” She decided to renegotiate with 1501, which led the label to bar her from releasing new music. According to 1501 Certified Entertainment, Something for Thee Hotties is not album enough, relegating it to mixtape status. By that definition, Something for Thee Hotties is a bona fide album because it exceeds the 45-minute run time by exactly two seconds. Below, we break down their current legal battles and the circumstances that led to their fallout. The countersuit follows Meg’s original February 2022 lawsuit, in which she claimed that Something counted as an album and would contribute toward satisfying her obligations to the label.
It's over a row about what constitutes an album, with 1501 Certified Entertainment saying her Something For Thee Hotties record does not qualify. Megan has ...

TMZ goes into extensive detail about Carl Crawford’s countersuit against Megan Thee Stallion. In a nutshell, Crawford and 1501 Certified Entertainment are claiming that Meg owes the label two more albums before she can be released from her contract. Megan Thee Stallion: Her Side of the Story As AfroTech previously reported, Megan Thee Stallion first started taking 1501 Certified Entertainment to court in March of 2020. I will proceed with the release of “SUGA” on Friday, March 6,” she said. “They be like, ‘She in the pit — just let her go,’” she enthuses. “Besides her mother, the team working for Megan is currently all men — but she insists that they’re supportive, encouraging Megan to be her ultimate self at all times. “They just love it when I’m raw and talking reckless.”
Megan Thee Stallion has called former MLB All-Star Carl Crawford a "f--king powder head" in a record contract dispute.

Megan Thee Stallion is seeking a non-monetary declaratory judgment that the record meets the definition of an album—satisfying the terms of her contract—and attorney’s fees.”
The 'Queen' rapper posted a screenshot of the piece via social media, with the names of fellow female rappers, like City Girls and Doja Cat, crossed out.
You can read some of the reactions below. Though the Nicki vs. The move immediately polarized fans, as some saw it as amusing, while others considered it unnecessary and petty.
Towards the end of March, Megan Thee Stallion gave Instagram fans a candid look at her makeup-free skin. See the photos here.
The Hot Girl has been working hard on and off stage between several performances around the country, the release of her latest song with Dua Lipa, and the launch of her Snapchat Series, Off Thee Leash. And of course, she's given us beauty look after beauty look with each and every appearance. Her hair was also styled simply with a middle part, her extra-long waves falling all the way down her back. On March 19, she blessed her Instagram followers with a few makeup-free photos.
She added, "Carl I don't wanna be signed to yo pill popping ass! You talking abt I ain't paid for a show and you sound slow. Im the artist I don't pay you ...

"Sweetest Pie," new collab from pop stars Dua Lipa and Megan Thee Stallion lands in the top 20 of this week's Hot 100.
If even a high-powered event teamup between two of the biggest names in popular music can’t break into the top 10 — at least at first — what is it going to take for this year’s pop to get shaken out of its doldrums? When a song finds its dominant platform(s), it might take a while for it to find success on the overall charts. But if either artist returns with a new project in the coming months, then “Sweetest Pie” would be a timely top 20 hit previewing that project. If Lipa, who’s currently touring the world behind Future Nostalgia, is still a long way away from releasing a new album, or if Megan Thee Stallion’s still not ready to begin her next era, then “Sweetest Pie” represents a fun one-off for both artists. Lyndsey Havens: This seems to me like a one-off collab (at least, I’m hoping it is). I love being gifted in-between-cycle treats and this accomplishes that as we wait patiently for a new “era,” if you will, from both artists on their own. But Meg certainly found the sweet side of it all when she tweeted, “For me to completely step out of my normal zone / genre/ style of music or whatever and crack the TOP 20 on @billboardcharts as the DEBUT!!! Bi— I’m gagginggg.” The song has plenty of time to rise above, however – especially since Lipa is the longevity queen with how long “Levitating” has stayed on the Hot 100 (a historical 70 weeks and counting). Even though the song never levitated past the No. 2 spot, it still finished at No. 1 on the 2021 Year-End Hot 100. Too soft for Meg’s fans, a bit more of the same (but not as inspiring) for Lipa’s people. A top 20 debut from two of the 20 biggest pop stars of the last year is nothing to frown at — especially during a time when it’s been especially difficult for new songs to break into the chart’s upper echelon. While she and Doja Cat guest starred on Ariana Grande’s Hot 100 No. 2 “34+35” remix in 2020, Meg takes another bite into the bubblegum pop scene with “Sweetest Pie.” But mixed with Dua’s groovy, radio-friendly hook that adds a dash more sexy than her blockbuster pandemic album Future Nostalgia, “Sweetest Pie” shows that these two are bigger than the genres they respectively conquer. While I don’t think this song necessarily challenges either artist — which is, I suppose, to say it’s more a sum of their parts — that’s not necessarily worth faulting them for. Dua is coming off a massive pandemic surge in popularity thanks to “Levitating” and the well-orchestrated Future Nostalgia roll-out, and Megan is inarguably one of the hottest rappers in the game, expert at keeping us intrigued, whether through her singles, college graduation or other clever brand extensions. So even if “Sweetest Pie” fails to take a bite of the top 10 in the near future, landing this close at all is quite impressive.
As celebrities mass unfollow her ahead of the Tory Lanez trial, Meg is asking what happened to supporting women.
She’s been suddenly cast as dramatic, a liar and a problem starter, after we’ve literally seen photos of the wounds on her feet. She tweeted in January: “Imagine how I feel waking every day seeing people LIE and turn my trauma to a joke?” She continues to battle with online doubters as the trial hearing approaches. Plus, Drake unfollows everyone depending on how the winds blows, and the Nicki Barbz have been trashing Meg on Twitter since her Dua Lipa collab. Reporters on the case have squelched that last claim, declaring Tory’s statement about DNA evidence on the weapon “fake news.” Rihanna said in an interview that Meg was “the energy we were looking for” and even sent her a care package after Meg’s post-shooting injury and confessional wished her a “speedy recovery” on Instagram. According to the Savage X Fenty site, the brand not only removed Meg as an ambassador, but its founder Rihanna also unfollowed her on Twitter late last week.
