    The news follows the recent announcement of VMA nominees , where Megan received five nominations, including Best Collaboration with tourmate GloRilla and Best Hip Hop. She previously won an award in the same category in 2020 for her hit single “Savage” from the EP Suga .

    She won her first VMA in 2019 for Best Power Anthem as a first-time nominee with her hit single “Hot Girl Summer.”

She collaborated with artists such as Victoria Monét, GloRilla, UGK, Big K.R.I.T., Kyle Richh, and Yuki Chiba, delivering a fresh sound and theme distinct from her previous albums.
