Slim Thug Responds to Megan Thee Stallion’s Coachella Rebuff with Humor and Patience
Slim Thug is keeping it light-hearted after Megan Thee Stallion playfully shut down his romantic hopes during her fiery Coachella set. The Houston rap legend, who’s long made his admiration for the Grammy-winning star no secret, took the friendly rejection in stride—complete with jokes, good vibes, and a bit of long-game optimism.
During her performance at the iconic festival, Megan thrilled the crowd by spinning Slim Thug’s 2005 classic “Still Tippin’.” But before fans could read too much into it, she made sure to clarify: “And no, Slim Thug, this don’t mean I want you. I just like your music, babe.”
The moment quickly went viral, and Slim Thug took to social media to address it head-on—with his signature humor intact.
“I can’t do Megan Thee Stallion. Gotta do Megan Thee Auntie, 10 years later,” he joked in a video posted to his account. “But she gave me a shout out, said my name on the Coachella stage. And then she called me ‘babe.’ Come on now, that’s a lot.”
Rather than taking offense, Slim seemed genuinely appreciative of the spotlight. “That was a good shout out. Played my songs, everything. Streams up on ‘Thug From Around the Way.’ We good. We love all that, man.”
Clearly unbothered, he continued with a sly grin: “I’mma be patient, man. Gotta come home. Slim ain’t going nowhere.”
Earlier this month, shortly after Megan’s Coachella appearance, Slim took to Instagram Live to express his excitement over her dancing to not one, but two of his tracks—“Still Tippin’” and “Thug From Around the Way.” At the time, he told fans: “If that ain’t a ‘I want you daddy’ call, I don’t know what is.”
Despite Megan’s playful rejection, Slim Thug remains unfazed, leaning into the moment with charm and keeping the door open. While a romance might not be in the cards, one thing is clear: the mutual respect between two of Houston’s biggest hip-hop exports continues to shine—flirtation or not.
