Something for Thee Hotties (co-titled From Thee Archives) is a compilation album by American rapper Megan Thee Stallion. It was released on October 29, 2021, by 300 Entertainment and 1501 Certified as a "thank you" gift to Megan's fanbase. The compliation serves as a collection of some of her previously-released YouTube freestyles, as well as previously unreleased archival songs; with the only guest appearances Juicy J, VickeeLo and Dino BTW contributing skits. It also includes "Thot Shit", which was released as a single in June that year.

Critic Reviews
Show All-
Pitchfork
With her latest batch of unreleased freestyles and loosies, the Houston rapper reminds the world that breathless raps are her foundation.
-
Rolling Stone
Collection of freestyles from the prolific rap superstar is a deluge of illicit sumptuousness.
-
The Rice Thresher
Megan is a dedicated artist whose talent and tenacity have amassed her a loyal fanbase that grows with her every move, proving the power of the self-proclaimed “Hottest in Houston”’s unparalleled energy and inspiring perseverance.
-
Stereogum
The mixtape gives her a chance to reassure longtime fans that she’s still the same artist, that she hasn’t left behind the audience who made her famous in the first place. It’s just a nice little bonus that Something For Thee Hotties happens to be a tough, strong piece of music.

Ratings Game Music
Megan Thee Stallion catches so much slack from men, the media, opposing rappers, and blogs. The question that I haven’t gotten from any of her naysayers is whether or not they think that she is a great rapper. After the release of Something For The Hotties, I can confidently say this: Megan is DEFINITELY (With a capital D) a talented rapper.

Commedia
However, many of the songs sound the same. Megan Thee Stallion doesn’t necessarily need to change everything about her style of music, but still, it would be nice to see more versatility in her next body of work, especially as the general public becomes more familiar with her music.
-
Ben's Beat
While many of these tracks are far from perfect, it’s never a good sign for the rest of the game when artists release albums full of droplets that are better than some of their peers’ planned-out bodies of work. It’s not the polished Megan we’re used to, but it’s still a highly enjoyable early Christmas present.
-
Vinyl Chapters
One thing that is clear from this release is that Megan Thee Stallion considers her fans to be her priority in her music-making. Even without the explicit thank you at the end of the mixtape (To Thee Hotties), these sentiments are woven into the fabric of every freestyle and song on Something For Thee Hotties. Megan’s greatest strength is that she never loses sight of what it is that makes her popular as an artist.
-
Varsity
Something for Thee Hotties succeeds on every front: holding over increasingly impatient fans as they await her sophomore studio effort, and making some of her best verses available on streaming platforms. After a tumultuous few years, the mixtape sees Megan having fun again, and creating some of her best work in the process.
