BTS x Megan Thee Stallion 'Butter' remix release date and how to stream collab

BTS and Megan Thee Stallion's 'Butter' remix finally has a release date and time after she took her label to court

Twitter was in chaos when fans of BTS and Megan Thee Stallion heard that they might be getting a collaborative remix between the two global acts. Unfortunately, there had been a hiccup and Variety had reported that there was a legal battle involved. Apparently, Megan’s label did not want her to collaborate with BTS since it wouldn’t be good for her image. Army and Hotties rallied together for the remix to see the light of day. And it hasn’t gone unnoticed.

Megan stated that she had already recorded her verse and the remix could have been released today itself on August 25. But she claimed that her label actually wanted her to pay them a huge amount before they would sign the release of the track. She took the case to court and the ruling was in her favor. The court has given her the go-ahead to release her track as it was scheduled. And now BTS’ label, Big Hit has confirmed a time and date for the release.

Release date

BTS’ ‘Butter’ ft. Megan Thee Stallion will be released on August 27 at 1 pm KST (12 am ET).

How to stream

The collaborative remix will be released on all major music streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, MelOn and more.

‘Butter’ is part of BTS’ latest English single album ‘Butter’ CD that was released in July. It made history and broke records worldwide such as topping the Billboard Hot 100 for nine weeks. Megan is a popstar with several Grammys under her belt and songs that go viral on TikTok every other day. Fans believe that this collab will be remarkable as Big Hit has described her verse as “inimitable rap, signature sounds and ad-libbing” which will mesh well with the international boy group’s style and “create an even richer experience.”

It seems that those involved in the remix fought for two months to get the single released. And fans are touched and overwhelmed as they can’t wait long enough for the remix to finally drop. They also decided to do their best and support the release since the two acts have done everything to get the remix to their fans. They trended several related phrases such as Megan, ‘#BUTTERTHEEREMIX’, ‘#RELEASETHEREMIX’, ‘it’s happening’ and ‘it’s confirmed’.

One fan tweeted, “BTS AND MEGAN ARE COMING !!!! The music industry is shaking right  now.” Another brought back Megan’s label’s statement, “Based on 1501’s review of the track, they do not believe that this feature w/ BTS is good for her career as a recording artist”. 1501, WE’RE GOING TO PROVE YOU WRONG.” One said, “Nah cuz of all the people they rlly think they would stand a chance between megan and BTS? two titans in the industry? one of the most genuine people? think again.” Another added, “BTS X MEGAN THEE STALLION ?? I SIMPLY WOULD HAVE NEVER GUESSED I AM SCREAMING.” One wondered, “If bts imitates megan’s “AHHH *Tongue emoji*” we’re over.”
