In an effort to continue investing in women’s sports, Reddit’s co-founder Alexis Ohanian secured one of the hottest musical talents to perform at his all-women’s track meet this September.
The Athlos track meet, formerly known as the 776 Invitational, announced earlier today that Megan Thee Stallion will headline the event as the musical performance. The best of music and sports will come together under one roof in New York City.
Megan’s success embodies what Athlos is trying to achieve and shows that Ohanian is living up to his promise of providing the best for women athletes.
Megan Thee Stallion’s new album, Megan, topped the Billboard 100 charts several weeks ago. She is the sixth female rapper to top the R&B/Hip Hop albums chart, joining Nicki Minaj and Missy Elliot. According to the Billboard website, her new album, based on units, is the biggest rap album debut of any woman in 2024.
Her “Hot Girl Summer Tour” is extremely popular on social media, with many viral clips and praise for her performances. Her song “Mamushi” is ranked number seven on TikTok with over one million posts under the sound and a trending dance.
