Megan actualized a dream when she collaborated with Ty Dolla $ign and Nicki Minaj to create a theme song for her "Hot Girl Summer" movement. While it might not have lived up to the high expectations some people had for the track, the single still debuted at No. 7 on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop chart. This was enough to garner the song a nod for the VMA's Power Anthem Award even though the track wasn't accompanied with a video.

But as Megan explained, this is one of the awards where the public gets to decide the winner. Megan's hotties and Nicki's Barbz joined forced to make sure Thee Stallion left Newark with a Moon Man.
