Numerous Texas MCs make cameos in her love letter to the late 90's-2000's.

Megan Thee Stallion, while providing a lot of bangers on MEGAN, it's subsequent ACT II takes all gas and no brakes to a new level. If the cover wasn't telling enough for you, it does hint at the sonic direction for these 13 new tracks. The gaudy diamond-encrusted font and her extravagant grill scream that this is going to be strictly Southern hip-hop slappers. Right on cue, you are going to put in the time machine as the Houston rapper is doing just that with the wavy synths to the familiar drum patterns. This is easily the most she has leaned into her H-Town roots in her music and most of the love letters do the era justice.

One of those prime examples is "Bigger In Texas," the lead-off cut for this extended version of her self-titled record. The brand-new visual especially shows off her love for the Lone Star State with the over-the-top lowriders, Johnny Dang's famous jewelry store, and plenty of cameos from artists that paved the way. Slim Thug, Paul Wall, and Sauce Walka are just a few that show love to the H-Town Hottie. As for the track itself, Meg brings her patented flow, adlibs, bars, and the whole bit and it's a pretty impressive display regardless of how much you've heard this formula. There are some hilarious flashes of her humor as well with gut-busting bars like, "Pockets gettin' thickеr and thicker, I'm tastin' the money, it look likе I ate a few hundreds / I just hopped on a G6, I'm gettin' head while I'm playin' my Switch, hm."
