Megan Thee Stallion ain’t playing around as she rocks the charts, breaking records, and slaying the game as an independent artist! Get ready, ’cause “Cobra” just made a sizzling entrance in 2023, and it’s hotter than a Texan summer.
In a move that shook the hip-hop world, Megan’s “Cobra” music video just smashed its way into the record books. Roc Nation, Megan’s top-notch management team, dropped the news on X, and it’s a jaw-dropper. The video clocked over 2.14 million views in just 24 hours, making it the ultimate YouTube debut by a solo female rapper this year. It’s like she’s setting fire to the internet, one view at a time.
Directed by the genius Douglas Bernardt, this visual masterpiece hit Megan’s YT channel like a sonic boom on November 3rd. Can you believe it? The “Cobra” video outshined Doja Cat’s “Demons” and Ice Spice’s “Deli,” scoring more views in the first 24 hours. The Stallion Hub fan page spilled the tea, and we’re here for it!
But that’s not all, folks! Megan’s “Cobra” isn’t just a visual sensation; it’s also tearing up the streaming world. Within a mere 24 hours, the song itself snagged a whopping 1.04 million global streams on Spotify. The Hot Girl Coach is on fire, and there’s no stopping her now.
Taking to her X account, Megan had to give a shoutout to all the hotties out there. “I’m so happy all the hotties are happy! #COBRA is the introduction of ACT ONE, and y’all are already so excited… I just can’t wait until y’all see everything,” she tweeted. She even threw in the reminder that she’s doing it all independently, just in case you forgot.
And as if that wasn’t enough to make your jaw drop, Megan blessed us with some fierce glam shots from her “Cobra” photoshoot on her Instagram page. This girl knows how to serve looks, and she’s doing it like a boss.
This meteoric rise comes right on the heels of Megan’s split from her former label, 1501 Certified Entertainment, after a tumultuous legal battle. They finally decided to call it quits, announcing the amicable separation on their Insta on October 19, 2023. “Megan Thee Stallion and 1501 Certified Entertainment are pleased to announce that they have mutually reached a confidential settlement to resolve their legal differences,” they said. Money talks, and they’ve put their beef to rest, ready to conquer new horizons.
So let’s raise a glass to Megan Thee Stallion, the queen of independence, smashing records, and slaying the game. Congrats, girl
