Suga is the third extended play by American rapper Megan Thee Stallion. It was released on March 6, 2020, by 1501 Certified Entertainment and 300 Entertainment.[1] It features guest appearances from Kehlani and Gunna.[2] The project's release was preceded by legal troubles between the rapper and the label, following a contract renegotiation attempt, which led to the filing of a temporary restraining order towards the label.[3] Megan had initially intended for it to be her debut studio album,[4][5] but instead released it as an EP as a result.[6][7]

The EP features the single "B.I.T.C.H.", released on January 24, 2020, that charted at number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100.[8] The album's second single, "Captain Hook", was released on March 10, 2020, and charted at number 74 in the US.[9] The third and final single "Savage", was sent to top 40 radio formats on April 7, 2020, and has since become Megan Thee Stallion's first chart-topper in the United States, aided by a Beyoncé remix.[10][11]
