“I had never heard a woman rapping that hard before,&#8221; Meg said of what she thought when she first heard Nicki Minaj. &#8220;So it just instantly drew me to her. I was a freshman in high school, and me and all my friends were definitely jamming a lot of Nicki Minaj, and then, boom, Cardi B came out and it was like, Oh, sh*t, another girl rapping.”
“I fell in love with Kim because she’s so raunchy and raw,&#8221; she added. &#8220;She has bars, metaphors, but it’s still hard, and she doesn’t have a squeaky little voice. I don’t have a squeaky voice. My voice is pretty commanding. My first time looking at Eve, it was like, Oh my God, this lady is just super sexy. She was smooth, sensual. I just felt like that was my vibe.”
Still, Megan The Stallion also stated that being a woman in rap has its difficulties. “It’s really mind-blowing <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/nba-youngboy-hastily-responds-to-subtweet-about-megan-thee-stallion-news.115950.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">to see the nasty things </a>that people say to you. I don’t know if people think you not gon’ see it,” Megan said. “I feel like just being an artist, waking up every day, voicing your own opinions is a risk&#8230; Just talking. Being real is a risk.”
