Megan Thee Stallion made a new record in one of Forbes' lists.

On November 28, Forbes released its 30 Under 30 North America 2023 list, which recognizes 600 people under 30 years old who made massive contributions to the industry.

In Forbes' Under 30 in North America for the year 2023, Megan ultimately made history by becoming the first Black woman to be on the magazine's cover.

In an interview with Forbes, Megan expressed how grateful she feels to score the milestone.

"It's really hard to be the first something in 2022, so ah! I want to be bigger than just my music. I want people to know Megan as everything that she ever wanted to be. Megan, the artist. I feel like I've always like to dibble and dab in a lot of different things and I feel like I got that from my mom and my dad," she exclaimed, as quoted by PEOPLE.

Elsewhere in the interview, she opened up about her "Traumazine" album and how the songs' lyrics made her feel nervous.

According to Megan, the album was really personal to her as it marked the first time she ever included her feelings and life story in her songs. One of the tracks in the album, which she released in August, is "Anxiety." The song explores her ways when dealing with stressful and heartbreaking times.

Although it was the first time she became the cover of Forbes' 30 Under 30 list, she previously secured her first spot on it in 2020.
