January 2024: Megan Releases ‘Hiss’ — and Nicki Responds
On January 26, Megan released her new single, “Hiss,” where she raps about “Megan’s Law” which was enacted in the U.S. in the 1990s and requires authorities to make information regarding registered sex offenders public. Fans speculated Megan was shading Nicki’s husband, Kenneth Petty, who is a registered sex offender.
Nicki responded to the diss on an Instagram live where she shared a snippet of her song “Big Foot” that she’s now released.

Nicki went after Megan more on the Instagram Live, saying, “You have three Grammys and you have to learn how to rap on the beat and be comfortable in the music.” Nicki also “liked” anti-Megan posts on Twitter.
