Megan The Stallion Penned The Tory Lanez Diss Track ‘Shots Fired’ Months Ago But Saved It For Her Album

Getty Image The rapper said ‘it was ready to go the next day’ after Lanez debuted ‘Daystar.’ …

Before Tory Lanez was charged in October for allegedly shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the foot, the rapper had been vehemently denying his involvement. His dismissal of the incident came to a head when he dropped the entire album Daystar to claim Megan had framed him. Megan ultimately responded through her recent track “Shots Fired,” but she had apparently penned the song the day after Daystar was released.

Speaking about the diss track and her decision to sample Notorious B.I.G.’s classic “Who Shot Ya,” Megan explained to Hot 97 why she chose to wait for its release:

“It comes a time where it gets hard to be the bigger person sometimes. And at the end of the day, I can’t just keep letting people walk all over me. I can’t keep letting people take these jabs at me and I’m not gonna say nothing. That’s just not in my nature. But when you know you’re right and you have nothing to prove, you really don’t have to give a response. But once you made it rap beef you put it on wax, now I gotta say something. I really had the song all ready. But I was like, let me just save it for the album. Because it was ready to go the next day. But I was like, lets be calm, let’s be patient, let’s see how this plays out, and let me just wait to put it on my album.’”

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”

Lisa Boostani

Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.

Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.

If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.

The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.

NOAH. captures the unspoken signals in enchanting R&B track “That’s Bless”

NOAH.

“That’s Bless” captures the unspoken late-night message, the smile that was exchanged from afar, and the feeling you sense but are afraid to say. NOAH. offers a song with a smoky R&B feel and lyrics that capture unspoken tension, firmly in the realm of emotional ambiguity, where connection is clear but not defined.

This piece concerns the subtle discomfort of mixed signals and quiet longings, when looks say more than words ever could. NOAH. handles the theme with restraint, letting the chemistry simmer rather than explode. NOAH.’s delivery shows a confident gentleness, recognizing that some feelings don’t need strict definitions to be real.

In “That’s Bless,” he captures the essence of connection and the compelling allure that endures, even when both parties pretend it is not there. The composition is based on real-life events, and it acknowledges that specific attachments endure in the heart long after one has persuaded oneself of having progressed.

“That’s Bless” is at the crossroads of closeness and distance, clarity and confusion. The song doesn’t resolve the tension it talks about, and that’s what makes it so powerful. It sums up the connection we say we don’t want but keep coming back to in memory, rhythm, and pulse.
