Megan Thee Stallion is living a love story with her new partner, Klay Thompson — and she’s embracing the cupid energy of it all on her new song. On Friday, the rap queen released the single “Lover Girl.”
“Let’s skip the small talk and make some big moves/I know you feeling me, you know I’m feeling you,” raps Megan on the track before not-so-subtly predicting: “A very freaky girl, you heard what Gucci said/First, I give you my number, then you give me some head.”
The cover art for the single sees Megan in a pink wig, violet bra, and wine-colored corset while holding up a bow and arrow like she’s cupid. Earlier on Thursday, she also shared photos with her basketball star boyfriend alongside the caption, “LOVER GIRL,” and has been capturing their sweet relationship on social media over the last few weeks. The Grammy winner also teased the music for several days, and wrote in one post: “All hotties better be in attendance.”
The new single arrives just a week before her annual HottieWeen event, which is set to be hosted in Humble, Texas, with proceeds supporting her Pete and Thomas Foundation. (The organization seeks to catalyze resources for women, children, senior citizens, and underserved communities.)
“Lover Girl” is Megan’s second release this year after dropping “Whenever” back in April. Last October, she surprised fans with a second act to her Megan album, which included collaborations with Fo Milli, Twice, and RM of BTS.
Back in March, the Houston native teased plans for an Act III project. “I’m really just trying to figure out who do I want to do features with at this point in life,” she said at the time. “I only want to do features with people that … one, I haven’t done a feature with yet, and two, that I listen to on my own time — people that I actually, you know, fuck with.”
She also noted that Doechii is on her “album wish list,” adding: “I feel like Doechii would be the type of person that you would have to be in the studio to make a song with. I would like to hear a beat that she would like to rap over, and also I’m like challenging myself to rap over beats that I wouldn’t normally rap over without losing myself.”
