Megan Thee Stallion Becomes First Black Woman To Cover Forbes' 30 Under 30 Issue

Megan Thee Stallion reveals she earned $13 million in 2022.

Megan Thee Stallion makes history as she becomes the first black woman ever to grace the cover of Forbes’ “30 Under 30” Issue. The Texas native who dropped her second studio album “Traumazine” this year, reportedly earned $13 million this year from music royalties, live shows and endorsements.

“I can’t slow down right now,” she said in the interview with Forbes. “I’ll take a break when I’m dead. I’m trying to really build something. When I start sitting, I feel like I’m not doing enough or I’m giving somebody else the opportunity to pass me.”

“It’s really hard to be the first something in 2022,” she added. “I want to be bigger than just my music. I want people to know Megan as everything that she ever wanted to be. Megan the artist. I feel I’ve always liked to dabble and dab in a lot of different things, and I feel like I got that from my mom and my dad. My dad was a street guy, he was an entrepreneur, he had his own clothing line. My mother, I watched her go to work nine-to-five every day, and come home and write songs. And take me to the studio, and be a mom, and be just a good woman in general.”

Megan Thee Stallion also said that despite her enormous success, she has yet to make a “stupid, crazy purchase.” “My jewelry is expensive and my house was expensive, but like outside of that, I’m not buying 100 cars,” she added. “As soon as I started getting money, I spent it on school. Then when I got done paying for school, then that’s when I started buying chains and stuff like that. But you should learn about how to make your money work for you, I feel like that was important for me to share.”
