BTS x Megan Thee Stallion “Butter” remix is finally out!
The latest “Butter” remix was dropped on Friday, August 27, but not without controversy. Right before its release, Megan Thee Stallion reportedly needed to file a petition in a Texas court asking for emergency relief so she can release the track. According to the multi-grammy awarded rapper, her record label 1501 Certified Entertainment didn’t approve the remix’s release.
