It’s been a smoking hot winter season for the Stallion. Our Hot Girl, Megan The Stallion has been booked and busy this year already; — scoring a No.1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Global 200 for her latest single, Hiss. The record marked her as the first female rapper in a lead role to debut atop the chart.
The single also landed Megan a historic distribution deal with Warner Music, where she will maintain her independent artist status and retain her masters and publishing.
If that’s not a hard Hot Girl launch, we don’t know what is.
Megan The Stallion is one of the most decorated female rappers of our generation. The Houston, Texas native has received several accolades in her career, including six BET Awards, five BET Hip Hop Awards, four American Music Awards, two MTV Video Music Awards, a Billboard Women in Music Award, and three Grammy Awards.
Aside from mainstream success, the three-time Grammy winner is also HBCU educated. While Megan wrote rhymes on the side, she attended Prairie View A&M University as a freshman. During this time, she began uploading videos freestyling on social media.
After taking time off from school to pursue music, Megan would return home and resume her studies at Texas Southern University. She graduated on December 11, 2021, with a Bachelor of Science in Health Administration.
Megan The Stallion is the epitome of a success story. Today we wish the Stallion a Happy 29th Birthday by highlighting 5 Hot Girl MTS moments.
1MTS Donated Big To Local Houston Nursing Home
Megan Thee Stallion made sure she didn’t leave out her hometown when it came to helping seniors!
In April 2020, MTS announced in an Instagram video that she partnered with Amazon Music to make donations to a Houston nursing home. The Houston native donated supplies, money and Amazon Fire tablets to the residents and staff of Park Manor Skilled Nursing Facility. The Fire tablets were provided specifically to help grandparents living in the nursing home to communicate with their loved ones during the pandemic.
2MTS & Beyonce Donated To Bread Of Life Organization Via Proceeds From Savage Remix
Both Beyoncé and Megan Thee Stallion are donating proceeds from the “Savage” remix to the Bread of Life, a disaster relief organization working to provide meals to Houston families amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The charity said the song’s release received donations from 500 new donors in the first 24 hours after the song’s debut!
The proceeds continued to come from the ‘Savage’ attention — most donors gave anywhere from $5 to $50 — and it was all used to stock up for the increased demand for food with so many millions out of work during the pandemic.
3MTS Launched Non-Profit “Pete and Thomas” Foundation, named after her parents.
In February 2022, MTS launched the Pete and Thomas Foundation, named in honor of her parents. The foundation provides scholarships, school supplies and resources to help students in under-served communities. It also helps address concerns such as cancer care, mental health and food insecurities.
“The mission of the Pete and Thomas Foundation is to catalyze resources to effect meaningful and positive change in the lives of women and children, senior citizens, and underserved communities in Houston, Texas and across the globe,” the mission reads on the foundation’s website.
4MTS Launched “Bad B—” Mental Health Program for Black and LGBTQ communities
“Bad B— Have Bad Days Too” holds multiple meanings for Megan Thee Stallion. It was initially a line from her song “Anxiety.” In September 2022, it became the name of her mental health website.
The program highlights numerous resources, ranging from therapy platforms to hotlines. The website also features directories for mental health organizations specifically focused on patients who are Black, members of the LGBTQ community and more.
5MTS Returned To Her Alma Mater, TSU To Award $175,000 In Scholarships
In November 2023, Megan Thee Stallion returned to her alma mater, Texas Southern University (TSU), to surprise select graduating seniors with the Flamin’ Hot® scholarship fund totaling $175,000.
While on campus, the three-time GRAMMY Award-winning artist recognized the recipients of the scholarship and sat down for a fireside chat with TSU Associate Vice President for Marketing and Communications Tracy Clemons.
“Megan Thee Stallion has been an ambassador for education and for Texas Southern University since she began her journey on our campus,” said interim president Dr. Mary Evans Sias in 2023. “She is an example of perseverance and commitment to education to which our students relate considerably. It was an exciting opportunity for our students, faculty, staff and Board to welcome her back home for a day. We are excited to partner with her in this investment that addresses student debt at her alma mater in a meaningful way. We look forward to the opportunity for continued partnership.”
