She self-released the albums Meghan Trainor (2009), I'll Sing with You (2011), and Only 17 (2011); they were pulled from circulation after she signed with Epic Records in February 2014. Trainor's debut single, "All About That Bass", was released on June 30, 2014, and topped the Billboard Hot 100 for eight consecutive weeks. The single became the longest-reigning number-one by an Epic recording artist in the United States, surpassing the seven-week record held by Michael Jackson's songs "Billie Jean" (1983) and "Black or White" (1991). It topped the national charts of 58 countries and became one of the best-selling singles of all-time. As of 2015, it had sold over 11 million units internationally. "All About That Bass" was certified diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and preceded Trainor's debut EP, Title (2014), which peaked at number 15 on the Billboard 200.
On October 21, 2014, she released her second single "Lips Are Movin" which attained a peak of number four on the US Billboard Hot 100. It was further certified quadruple platinum by the RIAA. The song preceded Trainor's debut major-label studio album Title (2015), which replaced her EP of the same name on the iTunes Store. Upon release, the album debuted atop the Billboard 200.
