Megan Thee Stallion's Coachella set was cut short when her mic was shut off before she could complete it. Fans were upset, particularly because she didn't get to sing "WAP" or "Mamushi." People online quickly began making jokes, attributing everything from the timing to someone backstage dozing on the controls.
The crowd was confused, the internet was raucous, and the mood shifted from hype to "Wait, that's it?" Real technical issues or just bad timing? No one knows, but the memes showed up fast. Megan Thee Stallion's Coachella performance was off to a record-shaping start, impending to one for the books—until things started going awry.
She'd just finished getting down to one of her top records, "Big Ole Freak," and was poised to break into "Mamushi." The LED stage screen had already begun flashing its visual accompaniments to the track, and the beat had already begun building. Suddenly, the main stage speakers cut off.
Panic soon swept across the crowd. Some of the fans started booing, while others started chanting Megan Thee Stallion's name, hoping that the performance would continue. Around 9:27 p.m., two minutes past her time limit, Megan's microphone suddenly went dead.
The graphics for "Mamushi" faded off the screen, and the camera cut to a wide shot of the stage, effectively marking the end of the set, whether the fans liked it or not. After some time, Megan Thee Stallion left the stage frustrated!
