Megan Thee Stallion Takes An Interesting Journey Through The Desert In ‘Whatever’ Visual

On Friday (Apr.25), Megan Thee Stallion dropped off the official music video for her new track “Whenever.”

Coming in just under three minutes, the video takes fans on an interesting journey that includes melting clocks, security guards with fish heads, and even a shot where the rapper shows off her toned-up physique in an office fish tank.

The video is rumored to be inspired by Salvador Dalí’s “The Persistence of Memory.” The iconic 1931 painting is one of the first examples of Surrealism, which was an art and cultural movement in the 1920s. Primarily used in Europe, the art form was a reaction to World War I and World War II. It focused on “reuniting conscious and unconscious realms of experience so completely that the world of dream and fantasy would be joined to the everyday rational world.”

Megan Thee Stallion Accused Of Stealing Lyrics

Speaking of the rapper’s latest track, Megan Thee Stallion has recently been accused of stealing bars from another rapper.

Fellow Houston femcee Ivy K, claims the rapper stole elements from her 2024 song “It’s Whateva” for her latest single. Ivy recently went to Instagram Live to share her frustrations. According to her, Megan’s team contacted her a month ago about remixing the track — however before she could reply, it was released without her approval or knowledge. In the video, you can hear both songs, which have distinct sounds but share a similar hook: Ivy’s “B***h it’s whatever / H*e, it’s whatever” and Megan’s “It’s whenever, b***h / It’s whatever, h*e.”

Some fans have pointed out that Khia’s 2008 track “It’s Whatever” could have influenced both songs, suggesting that the hook might be an original sample or interpolation used by both artists, either intentionally or not. The connection seems weak due to the differences in tempo and flow between the tracks. However, if Ivy K can prove that Megan’s team reached out to her, the situation may become more complicated.
