Here to brighten up news cycles for fans everywhere, Good News takes its title from Megan’s ethos that in the midst of everything negative going on in the world, we all have the ability to make and become our own good news. Megan Thee Stallion’s Good News is here to inspire listeners everywhere and to bring fun back into the everyday.
“When I’m by myself, that’s when my creativity comes to me,” Megan told NME earlier in the year.
“The whole album was basically written in the living room, the shower, the backyard – just visualize it with me.”
With features from City Girls, DaBaby, Lil Durk, SZA, Popcaan, Big Sean, 2 Chainz, Beyoncé and Young Thug, Good News is packed with incredible collaborations, as well as numerous solo tracks from Thee Stallion, including her global smash hit, “Girls in the Hood.”
