GloRilla rebounded strong, becoming Billboard’s Hottest Female Rapper

GloRilla, a rising rap star from Memphis, has made a strong comeback in 2024 after facing challenges the previous year. She gained attention in 2022 with her hit "F.N.F." and quickly followed it up with "Tomorrow 2," which peaked at No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100. However, in 2023, her new music struggled to reach the charts, and a tragic incident at her concert cast a shadow over her career. In response to her struggles, GloRilla had a "reality check." She realized she needed to refocus and not take her success for granted. She found comfort in her faith and the support of her mentor, Yo Gotti, who helped her navigate the music industry. During late 2023, GloRilla and her team planned for her return to the spotlight. In February 2024, GloRilla released "Yeah Glo!" which quickly became popular, marking her return to success. The single reached No. 28 on the Hot 100 and set the stage for her upcoming projects. Following this, she released a mixtape, "Ehhthang Ehhthang," which included the hit "Wanna Be," further increasing her visibility in the industry. As GloRilla opened for Megan Thee Stallion on tour, she released "TGIF," which gained viral attention, especially after Rihanna shared a video of herself enjoying the song. By early 2025, GloRilla had established herself as a leading female rapper, with both Rihanna and Beyoncé supporting her. Her debut album, "Glorious," released in October 2024, performed exceptionally well, becoming the highest opening week for an album by a female rapper that year. The album featured numerous successful tracks and solidified her status in hip-hop. Now, GloRilla is focused on her tour and is excited to connect with fans while continuing to grow as an artist. She emphasizes her commitment to personal development more than competition with others. Her journey reflects both resilience and ambition.
