GloRilla: Rising Rap Starâs Journey from Homelessness to Grammy Nominee and Fenty Ambassador
Making waves in hip-hop, GloRillaâs hit song âFNFâ reached over 82 million streams and earned a Grammy nomination. The song shot up to number 42 on the Billboard Hot 100.
âGODDDDD. Iâm speechless!!!!!â she posted on Instagram.
After the song blew up, Yo Gotti signed her â a track she wrote and laid down in just 30 minutes. Her new songs âWhatcha Know About Meâ and âTGIFâ jumped to the top of the R&B/Hip Hop chart.
The artist, born Gloria Woods, grew up with nine siblings. She found her passion for music in high school, after tough times that included sleeping on an air mattress until she was 16.
When she made her first million, she gave $20,000 to her former schools. Now, sheâs the face of Fenty.
Sheâs worked with some of the biggest names in music â Sexyy Red, Meg Thee Stallion, Cardi B, and Moneybagg Yo. Funny enough, she didnât start with rap â she switched over when she realized she couldnât sing.
Before making it big, she dropped âYou Ainât Sââ in 2020 and âWestside Babyâ in 2021. Her cousin pushed her to take rap seriously.
Sheâs kicking off her first tour in Phoenix on February 20, 2025.
