This year has already been a busy one for Megan, with the rapper herself saying it's been off to a "very lit" start.

After releasing "Cobra" in November, she released "Hiss," the second single off her upcoming third studio album, just last week. She also recently put her stamp on the new "Mean Girls" movie, teaming up with Reneé Rapp for "Not My Fault."

The self-proclaimed "Black Regina George" -- a reference to the "Mean Girls" character originally played by Rachel McAdams and now Rapp -- said "Mean Girls" has been her favorite movie "since forever."

Megan also opened up about finding a reason to continue fighting after a "really rough" past couple years, when she said "music just seemed so negative."

"I just wasn't in a good space mentally ... and it just all felt like, 'I'm tired of this, tired of fighting,'" she said. "But I had to tell myself I don't want to give up."

The "Savage" rapper said she channeled her struggles into music and the process has been "like therapy" and "like a real diary entry" for her.
