The wait is over! On September 6, the highly anticipated collaboration between rappers Megan Thee Stallion and RM of BTS, ‘Neva Play,’ finally dropped, setting the music world ablaze. This electrifying duet marks the second time Megan has done as a collaboration with a Korean artist, having previously joined forces with BTS on a remix of their chart-topping hit ‘Butter.’
The seeds of ‘Neva Play’ were first sown on social media just a week before its release. The Houston Hottie piqued fans' curiosity with a cryptic tweet featuring a horse emoji, a purple heart, and a watchful eye. This cryptic message sent fans into a frenzy, speculating on a potential collaboration. BTS cleverly fueled the fire by retweeting the message with a series of their own emojis, further amplifying the anticipation. The following day, Megan confirmed that the collaboration would indeed come to fruition, but with a twist: it wouldn't be a full-group effort from BTS. Instead, RM, the group's leader and renowned rapper, would be joining her on this fiery new track.

In the days leading up to the release, Megan shared the song's artwork, which boasts a comic book-esque style. In the caption, she expressed her enthusiasm for the collaboration, specifically highlighting RM's verse: "This is one of my favorite RM verses I've heard!" she exclaimed. "I've never heard him rap in this style before," she added.
The song explodes from the speakers with a pulsating beat, setting the stage for a lyrical sparring match between the two rappers. Megan, known for her fierce wordplay and unapologetic confidence, delivers a blistering opening verse. Her bars seamlessly blend swagger with wit, leaving no doubt about her dominance in the game. RM picks up the baton flawlessly, showcasing a previously unheard side. His verse is a masterclass in flow and delivery, as he trades verses with Megan.
This collaboration comes at a particularly exciting time for Megan Thee Stallion. Her album Megan, released in June, achieved a commendable No. 3 spot on the Billboard 200 chart, solidifying her position as a force to be reckoned with in the music industry. Additionally, she recently landed a major campaign with Pepsi, starring in a gladiator-themed commercial alongside football star Travis Kelce.
Meanwhile, BTS, the global K-Pop phenomenon, is currently on a hiatus as its members fulfill their mandatory military service in South Korea. However, the individual members haven't been idle. RM, known for his intellectual lyricism and genre-bending production, released his solo album Right Place, Wrong Person in May. The album reached No. 5 on the Billboard 200 chart.
