    Megan Thee Stallion’s talents are a moveable feast – she sounds as at home snarling over the minimal 80s gangsta rap of Girls in the Hood as she does with Beyoncé’s voice weaving around hers on Savage Remix.

    ‘Good News’ is a triumph, and a late contender for Album Of The Year.

    Good News showcases Megan the Stallion’s creative depth, her euphonious inventiveness, and libidinous wordplay.

    While Megan Thee Stallion presented herself as a force to be reckoned with from her earliest material, Good News finds her triple-X-rated sex rhymes, imposing charm, and ability to make it all appear effortless reaching new levels.

    Her party-girl braggadocio feels more nuanced by recent tragedy. Yes, listeners are blasted with sex-positive bangers that bounce from wall-to-wall, like the infectious "Body," which will surely be gentrified by White TikTok in the coming days, but these moments are made human next to moments like "Circles" where she reflects on recent trauma.

    Megan’s own flow is musical enough to offer its own hooks without outside ornamentation. A track like “Body” shows Megan’s pop strengths as she stretches the title into a stream of ody-ody-odys so bouncy you can practically see booties popping to the beat.

    While Megan is still figuring herself out stylistically, she’s undeniably in touch with herself. Throughout Good News, Megan doesn’t spend all that much time referencing her beloved alter egos: the pimp persona of Tina Snow, the lustful Hot Girl, and the relatable Suga. Rather, she coalesces qualities of each in her lyricism and delivery, suggesting that the mask is off and she’s being wholly, 100% herself.

    O álbum é coeso e armonioso
    Brinca entre o r&b e hip hop com maestria, uma grande sucessora ao trono de NICKI Minaj

    A good release. It addresses adbuse survivors confronts fame sex and pays homage to the great. In her debut megan is charhed and readyA good release. It addresses adbuse survivors confronts fame sex and pays homage to the great. In her debut megan is charhed and ready switching flows and droping adlibs fresh enough to change the game. Her sequencing is stella and the sound is cohesive without the songs feeling the same. This is an evolution of all her achievements. The harvest of her talent. Im astounded. It reminds me of a sequel to invasion of privacy Expand
