Megan Thee Stallion Praises Her Late Mom as the ‘Coldest Rapper Ever’: ‘She Was Really the One’

The Grammy winner talked about her mother’s influence on her successful rap career during an appearance on the ‘Club Shay Shay’ podcast on July 1

Long before Megan Thee Stallion was doing bar-for-bar freestyles against her male counterparts, the hip-hop star was sharpening her skills with her rapper mom.

During the July 1 episode of Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast, the Grammy winner, 29, revealed where she got her rap talents from, pointing to her late mother, Holly Thomas, as the source.

“Me and my mama used to be going back and forth,” Megan shared of Thomas, who used to go by the stage name Holly-Wood. “She was really the one, and I just wanted to beat her, and I wanted to impress her and I thought she was just the coldest rapper ever.”
