Hiss (song)
"Hiss" is a song by American rapper-songwriter Megan Thee Stallion from her third studio album, Megan (2024). It was released independently through Hot Girl Productions on January 26, 2024, as the second single from the album.
"Hiss" was met with widespread critical acclaim, with praise for the lyrics and rap flow. The song also attracted media coverage regarding the multiple artists that were indirectly dissed in the lyrics, with a subsequent notable reaction and controversy regarding fellow rapper Nicki Minaj. Commercially, the song debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, marking Megan Thee Stallion's third number-one single as well as her first as a solo artist. It debuted at number one on the Billboard Global 200, where it became her second number-one single, and made Megan Thee Stallion the first lead female rapper to debut atop the chart. The single additionally charted within the top 20 in Canada and Greece, while reaching the top 40 in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
On October 19, 2023, 1501 Certified Entertainment announced that they had reached a settlement with Megan Thee Stallion in her favor, ending a three-plus-year legal battle between the two. After her departure from the label, she founded her own independent label Hot Girl Productions and announced her upcoming third studio album. Megan Thee Stallion released the album's lead single, "Cobra", on November 3, 2023. On January 22, 2024, she announced her follow-up single "Hiss" would be released on January 26 and shared its cover art, depicting her posing with a white snake around her neck. Two days prior to the release of "Hiss", Megan Thee Stallion posted a snippet of its spoken word intro, in which she issues a warning to the song's intended subjects.
"Hiss" was written by Thee Stallion with long-time co-writers Joel Banks and Shawn "Source" Jarrett, who produced the song with LilJuMadeDaBeat, Bankroll Got It, and Derrick Milano. The song is characterized by aggressive and confident delivery and features both a spoken word intro and another spoken word break between the first and second verse.
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".
In the opening verse, Megan raps "I feel like Mariah Carey, got these niggas so obsessed", referencing Carey's 2009 single "Obsessed". Later, she alludes to her shooting in 2020 by Tory Lanez and the subsequent trial, which resulted in the conviction of Lanez and his sentencing to ten years in prison: "Any man go against me, I handle shit/I'm the Teflon Don in the court room/They be throwin' that dirt, don't shit stick." Towards fans defending Tory Lanez, Megan suggests that they download JPay, a money transfer service for the United States prison system, to send some money or even that they schedule a "conjugal visit", given all the "dick riding".
Megan Thee Stallion allegedly goes on to address Canadian rapper Drake, who previously dissed Megan on his song "Circo Loco" (2022). She raps, "These niggas hate on BBLs and be walkin' 'round with the same scars [...] Cosplay gangsters, fake-ass accents." These lines were taken by publications and fans to be disses towards Drake aimed at his scars being caused by an alleged ab surgery, claims previously made by Joe Budden and DJ Carnage. Megan also alleges in the song that her ex Pardison Fontaine cannot move on and has to keep speaking out about Megan to stay relevant.
Megan Thee Stallion further raps the line that "these hoes don't be mad at Megan, these hoes mad at "Megan's Law", I don't really know what the problem is, but I guarantee y'all don't want me to start, Bitch, you a pussy, never finna check me, every chance you get, bet yo weak ass won't address me". Megan's Law is the name of a federal law that requires registered sex offenders to provide their personal information to local law enforcement agencies. The bars were taken as a diss towards rapper Nicki Minaj by critics, fans, and Minaj herself, due to the fact that her brother Jelani Maraj and husband Kenneth Petty are registered sex offenders.
