Megan Thee Stallion has ridden her way into GRAMMY history books thanks to ‘Savage.’
Details inside:
The Best Rap Peformance GRAMMY trophy was introduced in 1989 as a mean to recognize the achievement of Hip Hop performers (which, in many cases, is also the songwriter). Since its arrival to the GRAMMY categorical tally, no female act has ever collected a win – until now.
Thanks to her 2020 #1 hit, ‘Savage,’ Stallion is the first female owner of this golden grammophone, breaking a long history of the category’s male domination in her wake. The already popular song was given an extra boost once music megastar Beyonce added her signature flair to it. As her remixed version was the rendition nominated, she also grabs a trophy for the win (her 26th to date).
By the night’s end, Megan took home three of the four awards she was nominated for at the 2021 ceremony – Best New Artist, Best Rap Performance, and Best Rap Song.
See her acceptance speech below.
Note: Megan is the first female winner of this iteration of the award, which was discontinued in 1990 and resurrected in 2012. Other versions of the award – which include the now defunct Best Rap Solo Performance and Best Rap Performance by Duo/Group respectively – have had previous female winners. That list includes Queen Latifah (1995), Salt-N-Pepa (1995), Mary J. Blige (1996), Faith Evans (1998), Erykah Badu (2000), Missy Elliott (2003 & 2004), and Fergie as part of the Black Eyed Peas.

The way this girl’s career has taken of , no album, no hype, nothing.
Real Talent will always prevail.
😭😭
Roc nation helped her career but why her solo songs never hit just sayin
And that maroon 5 song is not a hit struggling on iTunes and video been out 4 days hasn’t even got 4 million views 😂😂😂
I remember. You were quite racist or colorist towards her. It was disgusting. You bitter because she was coming for the number spot with savage.
Hmmm… basically describing her, how you describe Normani all the time. Smh. Anyways …. she WON. You mad. #aahh.

Damn, I’m scared for her
She’s fading. She burned out quickly
Her songs are burn out very quickly. Remember when she released body and everybody were doing the dance and then some few days later, everybody moved on.
No longevity.

STFU Troll…you’re a joke.

Megan is a very smart girl.
Look at how quickly she moved on from that flop called diamonds.
She understands the importance of consistency. Always putting out fire music to keep people interested in her.
Cause the attention span of the average individual today is very short.
People move on to the next hot thing so quickly and megan understands that, this is something normani doesnt understand.
💅💅😂😂
Girl stfu! You were just on here less than a week ago talking about she’s already peaked.
I said she was fading and she needed a hit.
And I prayed that that maroon 5 song she did will become a hit for her.
I was worried for her, I never said she was over.
Everyone has a Grammy but Nicki 🤣😂🤣
Wow
“U.N.I.T.Y.” won the 1995 Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance which was harder and no assistance
Yess!! I saw this WIN I knew she would have WON this award with Beyoncé Congrats to them both!!
Congratulations…
I remember when the grammies used to be a respected ward show.
I can’t stand her and her music is trash. She is trying to be like nicki Minaj too much. And the only reason why her funky ass got nominated is because she lied and said tory lanes shot her in the foot so she had an whole pity party but once she let’s tory tell his side people won’t be bumping her music anymore
Roc nation did her justice. She kiss bey ass all the time. Bey wasn’t coming if she wasn’t gonna win so that tells me she already knew before.she probally said give meg all three as part of the deal cause she deserved one not all 3. Also she cause so much drama since sighing with Jay her drama paid off. Do what they say and you will win. Now she really has to do as told if not she will fall off . She’s has talent but sending the wrong messages to lil girls .doja better than meg and Cardi can out perform , dance, sing, and creative rhymes not . Jmo
