It is official the Texas Hottie Megan thee Stallion has a new music release strategy to partner with Music Warner Group to distribute her music while still remaining an independent artist. With having such a ghastly year one being a long legal battle with 1501 Certified Entertainment. This decision raised questions and concerns with her “hottie” fans. Megan thee Stallion has built such a brand and following on her own, it is surprising to see the “Cobra” artist align herself with another label. Both 1501 certified entertainment and Megan Thee Stallion are delighted to put this chapter behind them and move on.
Fortunately she will be self funding and embarking a new indie artist journey. This legal agreement allows her to continue to work with staff from 300 Entertainment from her previous contract. Warner Music Group will sell and/or market on behalf of Megan thee Stallion music. While she keeps all ownership of her music. Which is a vast power move for any artist in this industry. The Texas artist conveyed in a live in October how she has no desire to sign with a major label. “I’m so excited to be doing something for the first time independent since it was just me and my momma,” she said. “I’m so excited ‘cause it’s really just me this go round.” This deal allows the 28-year-old artist to remain independent and gives more leverage for her to keep her masters, while also still being managed by Roc Nation.

Only time will tell how this partnership plays out for Megan thee Stallion. As fans and observers, we can only hope that she remains true to herself and continues to deliver the fierce and game changing music that we have come to love. Megan thee Stallion and Renee Rapp collaboration has been announced, Sunday December 10 that they will be working together on a song in the new “Mean Girls” musical film. 2024 sounds like it will be the year of the Stallion.
