BiographyMegan Jovon Ruth Pete (born February 15, 1995), known professionally as Megan Thee Stallion, is an American rapper and songwriter.

Megan initially gained recognition when videos of her freestyling began to circulate widely on social media. In 2018, she signed with 1501 Certified Entertainment. Megan achieved mainstream success the following year with the release of her commercial mixtape Fever (2019), followed by the extended play Suga (2020), both of which peaked within the top ten of the Billboard 200 chart. She had her breakthrough with the singles "Hot Girl Summer", "Cash Shit", and "Savage"; the latter's 2020 remix with Beyoncé won Megan two Grammy Awards, peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, and led to the release of Megan's debut album Good News (2020). Its single "Body" made her the first female act to release three number-one songs on the Streaming Songs chart within a year.

Megan's compilation album Something for Thee Hotties (2021) peaked at number five on the Billboard 200 and included the US top-20 single "Thot Shit", which received a Grammy Award nomination. Following the shooting trial after she was shot in the foot by Tory Lanez, as well as contractual issues with her record label, she left both 1501 and 300 Entertainment. Megan's second studio album, Traumazine (2022), was her final release under those labels and included the single "Sweetest Pie", which peaked at number 15 in the US. She founded her own record label, Hot Girl Productions, in 2023, through which she released her third studio album, Megan (2024). It spawned the single "Hiss", which became Megan's first solo song to top the Hot 100 and made her the first solo female rapper to debut atop the Billboard Global 200.

Megan is the recipient of various accolades, including six BET Awards, five BET Hip Hop Awards, four American Music Awards, four MTV Video Music Awards, a Billboard Women in Music Award, and three Grammy Awards. At the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards, she became the second female rapper to win Best New Artist (after Lauryn Hill in 1999). Time included her on its list of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2020. Outside of music, she has ventured into television and film, headlining her own documentary film titled Megan Thee Stallion: In Her Words (2024).
