Megan Thee Stallion Releases New Single "Cobra," Reveals Struggles with Depression and Cheating Ex, Goes Independent After Leaving Label

New single "Cobra" alludes to rapper Pardison "Pardi" Fontaine's infidelity and marks her triumphant independent comeback amidst legal battles with former label 1501 Certified Entertainment.

Megan Thee Stallion's new single 'Cobra' addresses her struggles with depression, suicidal ideation, and her ex-boyfriend's alleged infidelity. Fans speculate that she's referring to rapper Pardison 'Pardi' Fontaine.
The song also touches on the scrutiny and lack of support Stallion faced after testifying that rapper Tory Lanez shot her in the feet in 2020, for which Lanez was subsequently convicted and sentenced to 10 years in prison.
Megan Thee Stallion released 'Cobra' independently after a year-long legal battle with her former label, 1501 Certified Entertainment, accusing them of owing her over $1 million in unpaid royalties and restricting her from recording with other artists.
The label countersued Megan, stating she owed them over $10 million in earnings and royalties. In October, both sides reached a settlement, mutually agreeing to separate.
'Cobra' has been leading trending videos on YouTube and is the first single off her upcoming untitled album. The new album is expected to be Stallion's first independent release through her Hot Girl Productions
