GLORILLA CONTINUES HER SUMMER DOMINANCE WITH VIDEO FOR HER NEW ANTHEM “TGIF”
THE MEMPHIS NATIVE SET TO PERFORM SUNDAY AT THE BET AWARDS WHERE SHE IS NOMINATED FOR TWO AWARDS
24 JUNE 2024 (TORONTO, ON) – Today, GRAMMY-nominated artist GloRilla releases the new video for her viral hit "TGIF" via CMG/Interscope Records/Universal Music Canada. Directed by Jerry Morka and Diesel, Glo proves why she's the life of the party, encouraging her friends to twerk atop her tour bus to dance alongside them during a fun beach day.
"TGIF" first gained traction when Glo previewed the song on social media, which created massive demand for the song's release. She eventually started performing the song during stops on Megan Thee Stallion's Hot Girl Summer Tour, with the crowd rapping along her memorable lyrics, "It's 7 pm Friday, it's 95 degrees…I ain't got no n---a and no n---a ain't got me."
Hot on the heels of her recent triumph, the star-studded collaboration "Wanna Be (Remix)" featuring Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B, GloRilla is on a winning streak. First unveiled at Megan and Glo's tour stop at Madison Square Garden last month, the trio's dynamic performance and Cardi's powerful verse catapulted the remix to the top of the charts, solidifying it as the official anthem for the summer. "Wanna Be" initially debuted at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100, and with this star-studded remix, it has surged back into the top 15, a testament to GloRilla's status as one of the genre's top hitmakers. This week, Glo will conclude the domestic leg of Megan Thee Stallion's Hot Girl Summer Tour, following a string of unforgettable shows in major cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Houston, and Glo's hometown of Memphis.
Following the tour, GloRilla will be performing at the 2024 BET Awards this June, where she received two nominations, including Best Female Hip-Hop Artist and BET HER for "Yeah Glo!." Glo's success this year comes from her 12-track project Ehhthang Ehhthang, which boasts big-name features, ranging from her Song of the Summer collaboration with Megan The Stallion on "Wanna Be" to her team-up with CMG running-mate MoneyBagg Yo on "All Dere." Ehhthang Ehhthang also includes her top 30 Billboard Hot 100 song "Yea Glo!" and her newly released video "High AF," which includes a cameo from Snoop Dogg.
