2024 will go down in history as the year GloRilla took the music world by storm, solidifying her place as the hottest female rapper of the year. From smashing Billboard records to owning TikTok trends, the Memphis-born sensation delivered hit after hit, leaving no doubt that she was the name on everyone’s lips.
It all began with her fiery mixtape Ehhthang Ehhthang, which set the stage for her highly anticipated debut album, Glorious. The album didn’t just arrive; it exploded onto the scene, claiming the biggest first-week sales for a female rap project in 2024. Tracks like “Yeah Glo” and the Megan Thee Stallion-assisted banger “Wanna Be” skyrocketed to the top of the charts, both earning coveted spots in the Hot 100’s top 20.
The accolades didn’t stop there. “Yeah Glo” etched GloRilla’s name in the history books as the longest-charting female rap hit of the year, while the Cardi B remix of “Wanna Be” became the best-selling female rap song for weeks. And when she wasn’t dominating airwaves, Glo had TikTok users hooked, with viral hits like “TGIF,” “Hollon,” and “Whatchu Kno About Me” inspiring millions of creative spins.
By the year’s end, GloRilla racked up two GRAMMY nominations and secured spots on countless “Best of 2024” critics’ lists. Her relentless success, fearless energy, and undeniable talent have set a new bar for the rap game.
With a year like this, one can only imagine what heat Glo will bring in 2025. The “Let Her Cook” hitmaker has proven she’s not just a moment; she’s a movement.
