“I was like 20, and I didn’t know everything that was in that contract,” she said. “So when I got with Roc Nation, I got management — real management — and real lawyers. They were like, ‘Do you know that this is in your contract?’ And I was like, ‘Oh, damn, that’s crazy — no, I didn’t know.'

Soon as I said, ‘I want to renegotiate my contract,’ everything went left," she continued. "It all went bad. It all went left. So now they tellin’ a b*tch she can’t drop no music. It’s really just, like, a greedy game.”

1501 is owned by baseball player turned label boss Carl Crawford, who hails from Houston.  The same day Meg announced she had signed with Roc for management, Houston kingpin J Prince posted a note of support to Crawford.

So this could get interesting.

The music business is a business filled with sharks and cut throat people. So Congratulations to the homie Carl Crawford owner of 1501 Records @1501_certified_ent for breaking your first artist Megan Thee Stallion @theestallion . Carl is from my hood, better known as 5th Ward and I’m proud to be his new partner moving forward. Surprise to all that had plans on taking something from him, good luck with that. This is just the beginning.
