Traumazine

At some point in the not-so-distant future, Megan Thee Stallion is set to release a new album (which appears to be called Traumazine). Ahead of then, Meg has gone ahead and pulled back the curtain on the upcoming project a little bit via Twitter.

Last night, Megan started responding to fan tweets, with one fan asking, “You said the album was a lot of self-reflection. What inspired you to take this route for the album?” She replied, “I wrote this album for myself… I wanted to start writing in a journal but I said f*ck it I’ll put it in a song.”

Somebody else asked how long the tracklist is and Meg noted it’ll have 18 tracks. Another user wondered, “Was it hard for you to write songs for this project.” Meg answered, “Yes very [pleading face emoji] saying certain things you’ve never said out loud before is hard.”

A user asked if any songs on the album are going to be longer than two minutes and Meg said, “Now y’all know ima 3 verse type of girl so yes lol.”

Shortly after that, Megan decided she had spilled enough tea, tweeting, “Ok wait actually let’s not talk abt this tonight lol.”

On August 4, out of the blue, Megan Thee Stallion shared the definition of the word “traumazine,” which read, “the chemical released in the brain when it is forced to deal with painful emotions caused by traumatic events and experiences.” Given that it’s a cool-sounding word and relevant to Megan’s recent experiences (most notably the whole Tory Lanez fiasco), it was quickly rumored that Traumazine would be the title of Meg’s next album. Now, it appears she may have confirmed it.

Today, the rapper shared a quick new teaser video, which is set at a rainy outdoor funeral and shows Megan, wearing all black, placing a black rose on a casket. Then, in comes a different version of Meg, this one wearing all white. After that reveal, the word “traumazine” is shown on screen. The post is captioned, “It almost that time…”

Given that the video doesn’t exactly specify what “Traumazine” is, this doesn’t count as a confirmation of the album’s title (it could be just a song, after all). It sure does look like a confirmation, though.

Also relevant is that Megan recently shared a message about her album, writing on an Instagram Story last month, “So happy abt my album. It’s finished. It’s for the hotties. It’s honest. It’s me. It’s real.”
