Not even two months after Megan Thee Stallion announced she was stepping away from the music scene to ‘recharge’ after a whirlwind year of promotion and performing (as we reported here), the GRAMMY winner has lifted the lid on new music.

Dishing on the tune in a press release, Stallion revealed ‘Thot Sh*t’ is a cut that “celebrates women unapologetically enjoying themselves, doing whatever they want, whenever they want, regardless of what the critics have to say.”
