Who is Megan Dissing in Hiss? ›

Megan Thee Stallion released her biting song “Hiss” on Friday — a punchy diss track that takes aim at the haters and critics she's encountered throughout her career. She mentioned Mariah Carey and Kris Jenner in jest on the track, while appearing to make pointed references to Drake and her ex-boyfriend, Tory Lanez.

Publications reported that the lyrics of "Hiss" address different disses towards multiple artists who previously spoke out negatively against Megan. According to Consequence, "Megan fires back with venomous lyrics going after the biggest names who called her a liar".

“Hiss” debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week — Megan Thee Stallion's first No. 1 since 2021, and her first without a credited co-collaborator.

“Hiss” launched at No. 1 on the Hot 100 in early February. It became one of the first new wins of the year, and it was a big story when the track managed to surpass initial expectations and debut atop the competitive tally. Now, just three weeks later, it's fallen outside of the top 40 entirely.

After Megan collaborated with Cardi B, Nicki's longtime rival, on 2020's “WAP,” it seems things were pretty much over. According to The Independent, Nicki unfollowed Megan on Instagram in January 2021. Fans also believe she hinted at a kind of falling out between the two of them.

Many are calling the song a “diss” track, pointing to lines which allegedly reference artists like Drake and Nicki Minaj, though no one is directly named in the song. Others are pointing out how “Hiss” is calling out misogynoir behavior sent her way after she was a very public victim of assault.

New Jersey resident Richard Kanka reportedly is “fuming” over the rapper's latest song, which mentions Megan's Law, a 1996 federal law mandating public disclosure about convicted and registered sex offenders.

Meg was voiced by an uncredited Lacey Chabert for the first season, and by Mila Kunis in subsequent seasons after Chabert became busy with school and her role on Party of Five, although some of her work became second season episodes due to production order.

After taking a letter writing relationship with an inmate too far, Meg ends up going to jail for helping out her escaped boyfriend. Her time in prison changes her completely, as she returns with the most unpredictable skull cracking, teeth-shattering mean streak we've ever seen from Meg.

In response to Chambers's accusations, Hiss protested his innocence and insisted on appearing before HUAC to clear himself. Testifying on August 5, 1948, he denied having ever been a communist or having personally met Chambers.

Why did Megan make Hiss? ›

On “HISS,” she is letting it be known: After everything she's been through, from the backlash she received from the rap community for being shot in 2020 by Tory Lanez to years-long disputes with her record label, Megan is telling everyone to back off and let her do her own thing.

For nearly 50 years, the longest song to top the Hot 100 was Don McLean's “American Pie (Parts I & II),” which runs 8 minutes and 37 seconds. Finally, in 2021, Taylor Swift scored the new longest No. 1 when the 10-minute-and-13-second “All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor's Version) (From the Vault)” made it to No.

In its first full tracking week of availability, “Hiss” sold just over 94,000 digital copies, according to Luminate. That's easily the largest sales sum of 2024 for any tune. In fact, it's the biggest sales total for a single since mid-2023.

Megan Thee Stallion's “Hiss” debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 chart. With the launch, she becomes the first female rapper in a lead role to start atop the tally. Meanwhile, Tate McRae's “Greedy” rebounds for a fourth week atop the Billboard Global Excl.

Fresh from receiving a controversial honour at the ESPY Awards, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have another reason to celebrate: their friend Tyler Perry, who is also their daughter Lilibet's godfather, will be recognised at the star-studded Paley Honors gala later this year.

"Big Foot" is a track by rapper Nicki Minaj. It was released on January 29, 2024, through Young Money and Republic Records. The song is in response to Megan Thee Stallion's single "Hiss" released three days prior, which contained a lyric that was directed at Minaj's husband, Kenneth Petty.
