Megan Thee Stallion’s ‘Body/Savage’ Medley On ‘The Late Late Show’ Puts Most Rappers To Shame

Megan Thee Stallion has been knocking her late-night performances out of the park since blowing up with “Big Ole Freak” last year and last night was no exception. The Houston Hottie remains undefeated when it comes to late-night television performances, bringing a medley of her hits “Body” and “Savage Remix” to the stage of The Late Late Show with James Corden.

Dressed in a sexy majorette uniform and flanked by a massive team of dancers, Megan takes over a sports arena for a flashy and elaborate performance that displays not only her gift for showmanship, but also her physical fitness. Beginning in the bleachers and finishing on the field, Megan and her dancers run through some high-speed complex choreography that should honestly put all these male rappers to shame. If y’all don’t come with some choreo in 2021, just give the game to the girls entirely because nobody wants to see y’all huffing and puffing in one spot standing still barely rapping when the women in hip-hop are pulling entire cheer routines while spittin every bar unassisted. And that’s on period.

Watch Megan’s Late Late Show performance of “Savage Remix” and “Body” above.

Megan Thee Stallion is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Album Review

Paul Terry, Aptøsrs & Cellarscape unite on bold new album “Alternative Piano Club”

Combining his three artistic alter egos, Paul Terry presents an awe-inspiring new 12-track album, “Alternative Piano Club,” written in collaboration with Aptøsrs and Cellarscape. This is an album-length voyage of music that blends acoustic, rock, and piano-driven cinematic sounds.

Torn between this complex emotional spectrum, all the while the piano remains at its core throughout. Paul Terry opens his “Memento Mori (Chromogenic Phase)” contemplatively, creating a solemn, reflective mood. Cellarscape’s “Three Years Of Roses“ is warmer, whereas Aptøsrs’ “Questionnaires“ is much more textured as a large, sculptural post-rock.

“Dave’s Theme,” written by Paul Terry, musically expands the narrative with a touch of cinematic elevation that aligns well. “We Shape The Clouds” by Cellarscape is fluffy and heart-warming, “Writers Behind The Curtain” is somber, more narrative. We are all together in “A Place We Made,” an honest, intimate, emotionally grounded space.

The project contains vocal warmth and cultural depth in the song “This Is My Home“ by Silas Miami & Lana Crowster. Proceeding in a totally different direction is the stronger emotional clarity of Paul Terry’s acoustic storytelling on “Any Time You Want To Fly” and “No Sleep Has Come.” Cellarscape presents a wide, spacious atmospheric moment in “Cygnus,” while Aptøsrs ends with “Rust Mountain (Monochrome Piano Version),” a simple gem that brings the project full circle.

The mixing of Sam Okell and Adam Noble, the mastering of Alex Wharton and Robin Schmidt have, in many ways, brought their polish to it while still making it feel human. “Alternative Piano Club” is a work entity, where three musical personalities met and talk mind in the same emotional language.
