Though she’ll remain an independent artist, Megan Thee Stallion has signed a new deal with Interscope Records who will handle the global distribution of her music and provide strategic support for her upcoming releases through her own entertainment company, Hot Girl Productions.
Retaining complete control and ownership of her masters and publishing, the superstar rapper/writer said:
“I’ve always wanted to create music on my terms while building a legacy that extends beyond the industry. This distribution partnership with Interscope allows me to stay true to my creative vision while also increasing my global reach. I’m excited for this next chapter of growth and the expansion of my Hot Girl Productions empire.”
About the new deal, vice chairman of Interscope Capitol, Steve Berman added: “From the moment Megan emerged, it was clear she was a singular artist with an unmistakable voice and an extraordinary ability to shape culture on her own terms. She has consistently redefined what it means to be a global superstar – combining creative excellence, entrepreneurial vision and an uncompromising authenticity. We’re thrilled to welcome Megan to the Interscope family and excited to partner with Roc Nation as we support her next chapter.”
Adding to the excitement, Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez stated “Megan has always approached her career with a focus on ownership, creative freedom and long-term impact. The ability to maintain her independence and own her masters is a testament to the vision that has guided her career from the beginning. We look forward to working together with Interscope’s team and tapping into their global resources to further elevate this new era of her career.”
In 2024, the musician (born Megan Jovon Ruth Pete,) signed with Warner Music Group to release music through her Hot Girl Productions company.
Having dropped her debut LP, Good News, in 2020, followed by 2022’s Traumazine and Megan in 2024, the Texas native recently teased that new music is on the way, with a follow-up to her 2024 deluxe record, Megan: Act II.
Taking to Instagram, the 31-year old musician posted a picture with the words “Act III” written on her back, while another photograph showed the words “I’m back” written on her body.
