Hear Megan Thee Stallion team up with BTS’ RM on “Neva Play”

Megan Thee Stallion has released a new single, “Neva Play,” featuring BTS member RM. The duo teased the collaborative song, and Megan noted, “This is one of my favorite RM verses I’ve ever heard! I’ve never heard him rap in this style before.”

The single came with a dynamic music video. While Megan raps the new song in the live-action clip, RM does not appear in person. Instead, an animated version of the musician can be seen during his verse.

Megan and BTS began announcing the collaboration in late August. Megan tweeted a series of emojis, including a stallion horse and a purple heart, which fans assumed was a reference to BTS. On Friday, BTS confirmed the news, retweeting Megan’s post and writing “Coming Soon!”

The rapper had already teamed up with BTS in the summer of 2021 for their remix of the mega hit “Butter” and joined the boy band in the fall of this year to perform the song live for the first time at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.

Megan Thee Stallion — who released her third studio album, Meganon June 28 – is preparing to host the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards on September 11. She is also nominated for five other awards, including Best Collaboration for “Wanna Be” with GloRilla and Best Hip Hop for “BOA.”

BTS has since suspended its band activities until 2025 as the members complete their mandatory military service in South Korea, although they have been working on projects individually. Jimin’s most recent solo album muse arrived in July and he teamed up with bandmate Jung Kook for the travel series Are you sure?! which debuted on Disney+ last month. Jin also served as a torchbearer at the Summer Olympics in Paris in July.
