Many fans think Megan plans to address the recent altercation with rapper, Tory Lanez that took place back in July. Lanez has been charged with shooting Megan, although he denies these allegations. Since the incident, the two have gone back and forth through social media and now through music. Both those who side with Megan, and those who do not, are interested in the contents of the album’s opener “Shots Fired”, with many believing it will be a response to songs put out by Lanez in September.

This album will set the tone for the career that Megan Thee Stallion is embarking on in the rap industry, an industry known to be degrading and exclusionary towards women. Despite this, she has already established herself as a force to be reckoned with amongst the genre’s best women and men. Good News is set to be released on Friday, November 20, and can be pre-saved here.
