Megan Thee Stallion has dropped off the music video for herTraumazine track “Ungrateful” featuring Key Glock.
In the second Colin Tilley-directed visual to emerge from Traumazine, Meg is seen attending a funeral in an all-black attire before having an out-of-body conversation with an alternate version of herself donning an all-white attire. “Ungrateful” comes on the heels of Meg’s previous single “Her,” which got the visual treatment a few weeks ago.
Traumazine was released last month and is Megan’s second studio album. The project features appearances from Dua Lipa, Future, Latto, Jhené Aiko, Pooh Shiesty, Rico Nasty, Lucky Daye, Sauce Walka, Lil’ Keke, and Big Pokey.
In a lengthy interview with The Cut, Meg broke down the meaning behind the album title, and how it’s come to represent the ever-changing way in which she’s handled her own trauma.
“[It’s] the chemical released in the brain when it is forced to deal with painful emotions caused by traumatic events and experiences.” She said. “I might have been pissed off one month and so the name of the album was something angry, and I might have been super-sad another month so the name of the album was something sad.”
She continued, “Everybody has gone through their own trauma in their own way, and to me, Traumazine is me facing the things that I’ve been running from about myself. It’s comforting to know that other people are going through the same thing that you might be feeling. When something happens to people, they feel like, Oh my gosh, this is only me. This is not normal, or I’m probably the only person in the world that feels like this. But to hear somebody else talking about something that you’re probably feeling, it’s more comforting and more familiar. That’s why people resonate with hearing other people’s stories.”
