Directed by Aube Perrie, the jaw dropping <span class=\"s1\">visuals featured Megan giving an unnamed misogynistic politician (the prototype for the emcee\u2019s most fierce opponents) the ultimate payback for his disparaging comments online.\u00a0<\/span>And although the lyrics are underscored by the dominance of patriarchy that has eagle-eyed the rapstress\u2019 music in the past, Republican lawmaker DeAnna Lorraine also believes the <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/articles\/doja-cat-meg-thee-stallion-new-music\/\">fiery single<\/a> is a subliminal shot at her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMegan Thee Stallion\u2019s newest latest video she\u2019s referring to potentially me because we feuded in the past with her videos like \u2018WAP\u2019,\u201d Lorraine said to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmz.com\/2021\/06\/16\/meg-thee-stallion-fans-deanna-lorraine-cardi-b-wap\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>TMZ<\/em><\/a>.\u201c But probably just the conservative political commentators as a whole that have called her out for her music videos and her outrageous, degrading songs in the past.\u201d \u00a0Responding to the GOP politician, Meg tweeted a succinct reply: \u201cWho?\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"und\" dir=\"ltr\">Who? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/LdgQjp5jS5\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/LdgQjp5jS5<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; TINA SNOW (@theestallion) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/theestallion\/status\/1405206735954927616?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">June 16, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>If your recollection of Lorraine and Meg\u2019s previous encounter is also fuzzy, do not fret: we can barely remember her either. When <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/articles\/cardi-b-grammys-outfit-weighed-18-pounds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cardi B and Meg\u2019s sexually liberating collaboration<\/a> hit airwaves last year, pious evangelicals and conservative lawmakers denounced the Billboard chart topper as a riveting display of how feminism has corrupted the moral compass of women. Stoking the frenzy,\u00a0Lorraine previously tweeted that it\u00a0&#8220;set the entire female gender back by 100 years with their disgusting &amp; vile \u2018WAP\u2019 song.\u201d The flurry of maligned remarks surrounding the song were quite literal examples of\u00a0society\u2019s penchant for scrutinizing Black women without applying the same constrictions to their white counterparts.\u00a0&#8220;When I saw all of the politicians in an uproar about mine and Cardi\u2019s &#8216;WAP,&#8217; I was just really taken back,&#8221; Meg told\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/time.com\/collection\/100-most-influential-people-2020\/5888165\/megan-thee-stallion-pioneer\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Time<\/em><\/a> in her 100 Most Influential People of 2020 interview. \u00a0&#8220;Like, why is this your focus right now? If you have an issue with what I\u2019m saying don\u2019t listen to it.\u00a0Tune out, &#8217;cause I didn&#8217;t ask you to tune in.&#8221; Unfortunately (or fortunately), Lorraine\u2019s Twitter privileges have been revoked indefinitely so we won\u2019t hearing much more from her on the platform anytime soon. And in\u00a0<em>good news<\/em>, Meg is back and better than ever \u2014 commencing our hot girl summer with her music for another year in a
