Megan Thee Stallion & BTS’ RM Mean Business With New Collab ‘Neva Play’: Stream It Now

Megan Thee Stallion and RM of BTS aren’t messing around on their new single “Neva Play,” which dropped Friday (Sept. 6).

Released just a week after the pair started teasing that they’d be joining forces on social media, the duet finds the Houston Hottie and K-pop phenomenon taking turns showing off their rap skills. “This is one of my favorite RM verses I’ve heard!” Meg wrote of the collaboration five days before it dropped, sharing the track’s comic-book-esque artwork.

“I’ve never heard him rap in this style before ??,” she added at the time. “NEVA PLAY WITH RM OUT FRIDAY HOTTIES X ARMY ???? #MEGJOON”

The new track marks the second time Meg has stepped into BTS’ world, having previously teamed up with the band on a remix to the Billboard Hot 100-topping “Butter.” She first started teasing “Neva Play” with a simple tweet — “??X?? ??” — after which BTS all but confirmed it was involved in the project by retweeting with its own string of emojis on Aug. 30.

One day later, Meg confirmed that it would just be RM joining her on the track.

“Neva Play” comes at a busy time for Thee Stallion, whose album Megan debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 in July. One day before the track dropped, Pepsi unveiled a massive campaign starring the Grammy winner in a Gladiator-themed commercial alongside Travis Kelce. The day before that, her Billboard cover story went live, featuring her remarks on the rap world, feuding with Nicki Minaj, and the importance of voting in the upcoming election.

Meanwhile, BTS’ full-band activities have been on pause as the members fulfill their mandatory military obligations in South Korea, although some of the boys have dropped solo projects in the meantime. That includes RM, whose album Right Place, Wrong Person arrived in May and reached No. 5 on the Billboard 200.
