“Ifeel like Mariah Carey (Mariah Carey), got these niggas so obsessed (Damn).” Damn, indeed, Megan Thee Stallion. Fittingly, post- “Cobra”, the Grammy-winning rapper releases “HISS”. “HISS” was produced by LilJuMadeDaBeat, Bankroll Got It, and Shawn “Source” Jarrett.  They give her a hard backdrop to rap on.  Notably, the record is comprised of two verses with no chorus.  Thee Stallion gives us an intro at the beginning (“I just wanna kick this shit off by sayin’ fuck y’all”), and an interlude between the verses.  Most importantly, as to be expected, there are no shortage of ear-catching bars.

“My pussy so famous, might get managed by Kris Jenner next,” Megan asserts in the first verse, following that epic, Mariah Carey / “Obsessed” lyric.  She doesn’t stop there, in the same verse, spitting, “These hoes don’t be mad at Megan, these hoes mad at Megan’s Law,” and “Bitches swear they G, but the G must stand for goofy.” Shots fired at Nicki Minaj. The second verse is also fierce, with the likes of “Don’t speak on my body count if the dick ain’t worth comin’ back for seconds.” Ooh-wee! Her ex, Pardison Fontaine receives her wrath: “I’m way too fuckin’ cocky to take him back if he been cheatin’ / I can’t let none of you raggedy bitches think that y’all my equal.” On “HISS”,  Thee Stallion confidently and unapologetic goes TF off. Fire!
