Megan Thee Stallion’s New Documentary In Her Words Coming to Prime Video
It’s official! Megan Thee Stallion has announced via Instagram that her documentary, Megan Thee Stallion: In Her Words, will premiere on Prime Video on October 31. The “Mamushi” rapper’s life story will take center stage, shared entirely on her own terms.
The documentary’s description reads, “Follow the Houston native’s journey on the road to stardom as she tenaciously navigates fame, grief, pressure, and success. The film unpacks the star’s most vulnerable moments in a powerful way, allowing fans to meet the real Megan Pete.” Megan Thee Stallion, born Megan Pete, shared the official poster with the caption, “Hotties, my documentary is out Oct 31. I’m nervous and excited for y’all to see it, buttt it’s finally here.” (People Magazine).
Directed by Nneka Onuorah, who won a Primetime Emmy for Lizzo’s Watch Out for the Big Grrrls, the documentary’s executive producers include Lori York and Desiree Perez of Roc Nation, along with Loren Hammonds and Dave O’Connor of TIME Studios. Alexa Conway and Ian Orefice are also serving as executive producers.
This announcement follows Megan’s recent success with her third album, MEGAN, which reached number one on the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Album Chart. Her singles “Cobra,” “HISS,” “BOA,” and the bilingual track “Mamushi,” featuring Japanese rap artist Yuki Chiba, have all contributed to her rising fame. She also completed a North American tour, performing alongside female rappers Erica Banks and Glorilla.
The artist first broke into the scene in 2019 with hits like “Cash Shit” and “Hot Girl Summer,” the latter reaching No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2020, she scored her first No. 1 hit. However, Megan’s rise to stardom hasn’t been without challenges. In July of that year, she was shot in the foot following an altercation with fellow rapper Tory Lanez after a house party in Hollywood Hills. According to Forbes, Lanez allegedly shouted, “Dance, b***!”* before shooting at her feet. Last August, he was sentenced to 10 years in prison. While Megan has faced backlash from some male rappers, including Drake, 21 Savage, and 50 Cent, she has also received support from prominent female figures like Janelle Monae and Halle Berry.
