Summary

This week on A Waste of Time with ItsTheReal, we welcome Houston, Texas rapper, newest signee to 300, Instagram legend and current student at Texas Southern University, Megan Thee Stallion to the Upper West Side! Megan discusses growing up loving school, getting trouble for cursing at a young age, making best friends during a food fight, always being the tallest in her grade, trying every sport and giving up, why she'd be a Plastic in her version of Mean Girls, and how she didn't win Prom Queen but still ended up bodying the night. We talk about secretly writing rhymes during high school, how shy she was as a teen, going to college with plans to be a nurse, putting stress aside and forming a new persona, finding beats on YouTube and starting a rap career on campus, when she found out her mother was a rapper, and the skepticism when her mom found out she rapped. We get into her debut show at SXSW, why she won't perform in a skirt anymore, her viral freestyle over Tay K's The Race, Missy Elliott shouting her out on Twitter, Q-Tip reaching out to offer advice and support and encouraging her ratchetness, Drake and The Migos throwing money to her song in a Houston strip club, what it was like when Kevin Liles walked in the room to sign her to 300, how much her mother likes her raunchy lyrics, and the surprising song that her mom feels she should emulate. All that, plus how her grandmother lurks on IG, practicing what it will be like when she finally meets Beyonce, how she's waiting for a dude to approach her in real life instead of DMing emojis, her southern accent, the dumbest way she's broken a nail, her upcoming project Fever and much more!

Fine, if people just say HBD or H-D or H-DB. And I don't, and I don't respond. Yeah. I'm either a dick or I'm dead. Right. I think people will think you're dead.

1:42.3

This is worse than you recommending I go to my high school reunion.

2:19.9

Well, no, you couldn't go to your high school reunion because you were dead. No, no. Oh, this is bad. Crow God in heaven. Dead rappers get better promotions. Yeah, dead podcasters are going to go through the roof. Let's get that number one spot. Are you kidding? This is going to be... This is a great idea. Oh, my God. Well, I'm going to put up like some black and white photos of you. Even pictures from that day just in black and white? Yeah. Oh, boy. Yeah. Oh, boy. Well, happy birthday, happy death day, all that. Thank you. This is the best. This is my birthday present. Guys, if you really do want to wish me a happy birthday, the best thing you can do is go to It's the Real.com slash shop and go get a t-shirt or a sweatshirt. They're really cool. Get a rhyme book. We should make t-shirts with your face on them. This is a bad idea. This is a really good idea. It's the real.com slash shop. I also want to say this is the last podcast before our annual trip to fucking, I don't know, insanity, right?

2:46.4

So... Yeah, so for 12 days in a row, we put out new episodes for you guys. We flood the markets. Yeah, but the problem is that we never, like, have 12 episodes ready before we actually do it. We do try. You know, it's not our fault that people schedules change. It's not our fault that people, you know, flake. It's not our fault that, you know, life sort of moves along.

3:07.7

Right.

3:11.1

So right now, I think we have most of them scheduled.
