With Tokyo rapper Yuki Chiba, Megan Thee Stallion showcases her admiration for Japanese culture and traditions in the music video for her viral hit song “Mamushi.”
As of the time of publication, the Houston Hottie’s Friday (August 9) video was the top trending music video on YouTube, with around 5.5 million views.
The humorous image shows a man walking into a traditional Japanese ryokan and giving the host a card with the phrase “Mamushi” on one side and a snake on the other.
The guest is then shown Meg and several Japanese women along with their services, and the video then shows off the ryokan’s amenities, including a variety of hot tubs, baths and more.
Watch below:
Following a sold-out London gig, the “HISS” diva took off for Japan to film the music video.
Meg hinted about her upcoming destination on Instagram late last month when she posted a montage from her Hot Girl Summer Tour performance at the O2 Arena.
Yuki Chiba, a Japanese performer, joined her on stage, and together they debuted “Mamushi” for the first time.
The post’s caption read, “London was a movie.” [Emojis with five stars] For the MAMUSHI VIDEO, we recently arrived in Japan [three hand clap emojis]. Then, DC cuties, I’m headed your way [four fire emojis].
But during Meg’s time in London, not everything was peaches and cream.
The rapper had to conceal her genuine emotions earlier this month after encountering pro-Tory Lanez hecklers in the United Kingdom.
The rapper was shown passing a gathering of people in a leaked video when a few of them yelled, “Free Tory Lanez.”
Upon hearing the jeers, Megan not so quietly produces an expression of distaste and puts her palm to her nose.
Jokes about Megan Thee Stallion being shot by Tory have not gone down well with her.
She criticized her fellow musicians last year for their lack of backing following Tory’s conviction for shooting her many times during an intoxicated altercation in July 2020.
She penned a stirring opinion piece for ELLE in which she stated: “My assailant made fun of my pain for years. My assailant propagated false accounts of what transpired on July 12, 2020, for years. My assailant sought to use social media to undermine my authority for years.
How would it feel to be called a liar on a daily basis? particularly from someone who used to be a member of your close circle.
