Megan Thee Stallion has dropped a new freestyle for her #MeganMondays digital series that sees the Houston Hottie reworking a classic song by The Far East Movement.
Featuring Dev and The Cataracs, “Like A G6” became a club anthem in 2009, and reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts for three non-consecutive weeks, becoming the first song by an Asian-American group to achieve such a feat.
That’s the song that Meg reworked for her latest Monday freestyle, which dropped on Monday (May 20). “Like A G6 Freestyle for thee fun hotties lol #meganmonday,” she wrote in the caption.

Earlier this month, the 29-year-old laid her bars over the 2010 Gucci Mane smash “I Think I Love Her.”
“Show a new bitch that ain’t Megan coded/ Show a beat I was on and ain’t rode it/ If she think she the shit, I’m the colon/ My pen gets gutter, I’m bowling,” she raps on the joint.
In addition to Megan Mondays, the Houston Hottie has also laid her claim over the entire month and called it Megan May.
In an Instagram post from last week, the Texas native added to the snake-themed persona of her forthcoming album rollout with a photo that depicts her “shedding” her skin as well as her clothes.
“Hotties it’s officially MEGAN MAY [snake emoji] Get ready,” she wrote.
Juicy J was among her many admirers in the comments section, writing: “Yes sir [three fire emojis].”
Meg has already launched her Hot Girl Summer Tour with special guest GloRilla. The trek kicked off on May 14 in Minneapolis, Minnesota and will make its way through major cities in the United States before it heads overseas in July.
The “WAP” hitmaker is in tip-top shape for the road, having recently revealed that she has been focusing more on her mental and physical health.
Talking about her journey for the Women’s Health April cover story, she elaborated on her path to healing via therapy.
“It took me a while to acknowledge that I was depressed,” she admitted. “But once I started talking to a therapist, I was able to be truthful with myself.”
Fontaines D.C. have teamed up with Rosalía for their new collaboration, Where Is Gone?.
The song features on the Irish rock band's forthcoming album, Dopamine Chamber, which arrives on Friday (16.10.26). For guitarist Carlos O’Connell, working with the Spanish superstar is particularly special because of his own Spanish roots.
He explained: “I’ve admired Rosalía ever since her debut album, which I thought was absolutely beautiful.
“What excited me most was the way she continued to preserve Spain's musical traditions, something that felt spiritually connected to what we've been trying to achieve with Irish music. Having roots in both countries, it's been really special to witness. "She's an artist who has continued to amaze me at every point in her career.”
Frontman Grian Chatten has also described the collaboration with Rosalía as one of the most memorable achievements of his career.
He revealed that he felt "humbled" when she agreed to lend her voice to the band's album.
Speaking to NPR, Grian said: “I've always felt there's something almost like a single big idea that I'm personally trying to communicate to the world before I get old and die, if that makes sense. There's one thing I think I'll spend my life trying to express. I have a feeling she has a similar outlook. … I mean, she's an amazing arranger, composer and lyricist. It means so much that she wanted to sing on something we'd put together. It's definitely one of the highlights of my career.”
Rosalía's links to Irish rock music extend beyond Fontaines D.C. She also offered inspiration and helped develop the Spanish lyrics for U2's The Mirror Maker (Rosalía), a track from their forthcoming album, Carnaval de Luz.
During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last week, she spoke about frontman Bono, saying: “I don't know him personally, but he sent me a text explaining that he was working on a new project and had written a song called The Mirror Maker."
Rosalía joked that Bono had invented a few words of his own.
She recalled telling him: “I wasn't sure what to make of it, but I told him he could create his own language if he wanted to.”
She described the opportunity to collaborate with the 66 year old music veteran as a real privilege.
She added: “Bono is a legend.
“It's amazing.”
Bono recently revealed that he was worried about seeming like a stalker when he reached out to Rosalía to ask whether he could name the song after her.
