Meghan The Stallion Has Wheels. BONUS - New Music Friday

PopCulture.com - Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion are looking to be the next NFL superstars. In the latest episode of Cardi Tries which airs on Facebook Watch, the two hip-hop artists learn the ins and outs of football with Los Angeles Chargers players Derwin James, Keenan Allen and Chargers legend Antonio Gates. Cardi B and Megan try a variety of football skills including, running the 40-yard dash, tackling and touchdown dances. 

"Since I have a son, I want to be one of those sports moms that be all involved in the sports activities," Cardi B said in the episode, per Billboard.com.  And when Cardi B was getting ready to compete in the 40-yard dash, she said: "When I was in high school, I used to go to hooky parties and the cops used to bust the hooky parties a lot so I had to run a lot." Cardi B ran the 40-yard dash in 7.93 seconds while Megan ran it in 6.53 seconds. Both times impressed Gates who spent his entire career with the Chargers (2003-2018). 

If we're being totally honest here a 7.9 and 6.3 40-yard-dash time is not too shabby.

I mean they're no Kevin Clancy combine times,

but to Cardi B and Thee Stallion's credit, Kevin wasn't hauling a wagon behind him like these two are.

- Post Malone waited nearly three years to release the follow-up to 2019’s Hollywood’s Bleeding, but it was well worth the wait. Malone dropped new LP Twelve Carat Toothache, which sees him not only collaborating with a talented pool of artists — The Weeknd, Roddy Ricch and Doja Cat, to name a few — but delving into deep topics now that he’s had some time away to reflect.
