These 9 Facts About Megan Thee Stallion Prove She Keeps It Realer Than Real

When asked about her greatest musical influences, Megan includes the late Pimp C of UGK, a Texas rap icon, whom she'd been listening to since she was a toddler. She was drawn to his talk-rap delivery, and in 2006, she discovered his 2006 solo album, Pimpalation. "[Songs like] 'Take it Off' made me feel so confident and cool," she explained to Rolling Stone. "I was like, 'If a girl was saying this stuff, this will probably go even crazier!'"

Little did Megan know that, years later, she would become so big that Pimp C's wife would want to meet her. "To know that I'm recognized by anyone in his family just makes me feel really good because I idolize that man," she gushed to The FADER.
