Megan Thee Stallion sat down with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson for "IMO," which led to a conversation about the music industry.

Megan Thee Stallion recently revealed that she has a new album on the way. ACT III is almost here, and her fans could not be more excited. It has been almost two years since her last release, and she has a lot to unpack.

A lot has gone down over these past few years, and there is plenty she could address in her music. Of course, many fans believe her breakup with Klay Thompson will serve as inspiration for the project.

That said, Megan Thee Stallion is now going viral online following an appearance on Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson's IMO Podcast. At one point, Robinson asked Meg about how so many people can become famous now thanks to music.

It led to an interesting answer from Meg, who said there is a lot of terrible music out right now. She attributes this to the fact that the internet has made it easier than ever for someone to become a star.

Megan Thee Stallion Has The Internet Upset

Meg isn't wrong about this. With the rise of TikTok and other discovery platforms, the most groundbreakingly awful songs can still move units. Unfortunately, for Meg, her haters got a hold of these comments and are now using them against her.

"Excuse us?! Meg…your music is TERRIBLE!! Nothing memorable," one person wrote in the comments section of The Neighborhood Talk. "I mean her homegirl Cardi b is apart of the demographic," said another. Various other comments echoed these sentiments, claiming that Meg is guilty of the phenomenon she's talking about.

It's hard to take these commenters seriously. Meg grinded to get where she is now. Sure, she has had some viral hits along the way, but most big artists do. Her dedicated fanbase proves that her success was earned.
