The rap world has been buzzing, and for good reason. Billboard’s year-end list for 2024 has crowned GloRilla as the hottest female rapper, a title she has undeniably earned with her remarkable comeback and dominance in the industry.
2023 was a challenging year for GloRilla. Despite her incredible debut with hits like “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” and “Tomorrow 2,” her subsequent releases, including the Fivio Foreign assisted “Cha Cha,” did not capture the same magic. However, GloRilla's resilience shone through. In 2024, she roared back to prominence with “Yeah Glo!” a track that catapulted into the top 30 of the Hot 100, solidifying her status as a force to be reckoned with.
Her momentum didn’t stop there. GloRilla's collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion on “Wanna Be” climbed to the top 15 of the Hot 100, while her summer anthem “TGIF” resonated with fans across the globe. The rap community and beyond took notice, with superstars like Rihanna and Taylor Swift giving her the nod as rap’s newest “IT” girl.
Even in the political arena, GloRilla made waves. Vice President Kamala Harris reached out to her during her campaign against Trump, acknowledging GloRilla’s influence on young voters. This recognition from the highest echelons of politics highlighted not just her musical prowess but her impact on broader societal conversations.
The ultimate cherry on top was the release of her debut album, GLORIOUS. The album opened at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 with 69,000 album-equivalent units, marking the highest opening week for a female rapper in 2024. This success was particularly notable considering it doubled the performance of her spring mixtape, Ehhthang Ehhthang.
GloRilla’s journey in 2024 is a testament to her talent, perseverance, and undeniable star power. As she continues to break barriers and set new standards in the rap game, fans and critics alike eagerly await what she will bring to the table next. Here’s to GloRilla, the reigning queen of rap!
