Yo Gotti’s Influence

During the interview, GloRilla opened up to Shannon Sharpe about how Yo Gotti mentors her and his influence on her music. “One thing about me, I don’t record a lot,” she began. “Like if I don’t like a song I’mma scratch it, like the moment I write it and it’s not good, I’m not going to record or nothing. And so, like I could be in the studio for 10 hours, write two songs not like them and I won’t record. He just be telling me like ‘Record them, every song. It might end up being good.’ And I don’t think it’s good,right? You know what I’m saying. Every song you make not just gonna be like that but just do it. You never know what the song gonna do.”

GloRilla Tells Shannon Sharpen She Welcomes Criticism

Moving forward with the interview, the topic of criticism came up. When Shannon Sharpe asked about how she blocks all the noise, GloRilla revealed that she doesn’t. Instead, she listens to it and makes corrections. “The thing with me is, criticism I like it,” she said. “All my friends know when I talk to them, I’m the most blunt person they ever meet…Don’t lie to me like tell me criticism because when I go out in the public, they going to say it anyway. So, it’s certain shit that I take from criticism like when people be talking shit like ‘oh she did this. It’s this, it’s that.’ Okay, I’m going to take heed to that right and fix it.”

GloRilla’s Dream Collabs

During the Club Shay Shay interview, GloRilla revealed a few artists that she would love to collaborate with, and why. Dropping big names like Beyonce, Drake, and Lil Wayne, GloRilla built her dream collab. “Five people I want to collab with I haven’t collab with,” she started. “Number one, Beyonce. Number two would be Drake and Lil Wayne, I love them.” Future and Chief Keef rounded out her 5-man team. “I grew up on Beyonce,” she continued. “She forever going to be my favorite artist of all time. Lil Wayne and Drake, they just like lyrical beasts. I love they swag and their approach to songs, and how they come on the beats and shit. Chief Keef just was young and turnt like, he was the first young turnt rapper I ever knew about… Future just a GOAT.”

GloRilla Opened Up About Her Childhood

On Club Shay Shay, GloRilla opened up about her childhood days, especially living in a house with nine siblings. Being the eighth child herself, the rapper revealed that things were quite hard for her and her brothers and sisters. “Just imagine, it was a lot of us so we used to get on each other nerves and pick on each other and fight,” she said. “Well, we love each other at the end of the day though… We used to get whoopings.” 

She also spoke about life being homeschooled, and the circumstances that led to her and her siblings enrolling in school. “Like every child got whoopings, but my sister didn’t,” she continued. “So, she used to call DCS on my mama and she was like, ‘my momma used to beat on us and we weren’t learning nothing in homeschool’ and all this stuff. And so, my mama had to put us in school after that.”

Her Frustrations With Social Media’s Double Standards

Speaking on how social media netizens held double standards, GloRilla explained to Shannon Sharpe her views and experiences with how the internet offers little grace for women compared to men. “They be hard on us. Social media be way harder on females than men you think,” she insisted. “So because a n***a can be ugly as hell but if he bumping, they don’t give a shit. ‘oh my God we love you.’ If they don’t like a certain part of your body, they think you too skinny, they think your feet too big or anything, they just going to talk about you all the time. Like they like, ‘oh you’re a female. You supposed to be perfect.’ They don’t hold men to the ‘being perfect’ standard. They hold women to that.”

GloRilla Does Not Regret Flirting With Damian Lillard, But She Won’t Say If Anything Happened Afterward

by

During the 2024 NBA All-Star Weekend in February, GloRilla posed alongside Milwaukee Bucks All-Star point guard Damian Lillard and posted the photo on X (formerly Twitter). The since-deleted posts read, “Who n**** dis is? Cause I want him #GetEmGlo” and “Whoever she is can’t whoop me so I really dgaf.”

On Wednesday, April 3, GloRilla appeared on the latest episode of Club Shay Shay. Host Shannon Sharpe acknowledged GloRilla had “shot one of those Steph Curry shots” in the form of flirtation toward Dame and asked, “Did it go in?” GloRilla awkwardly giggled before expertly avoiding actually answering the question, saying, “The halfcourt shot? You know, at the end of the day, the day gon’ end.” Sharpe’s last-ditch effort (“It went in”) to get an admission was met with more ambiguous giggles.

In early March, TMZ asked Lillard about whether he had “seen GloRilla shoot her shot.” Lillard chuckled and said, “Man, shout-out to GloRilla, man.” But when asked whether he had reached out or had any contact with Glo, Lillard politely shut it down, saying, “No comment, my brother.”

Lillard was traded from Portland to Milwaukee last October. Days later, the eight-time All-Star and his wife, Kay’La Lillard, filed for divorce. The former couple were college sweethearts and share three children. In February, Lillard described the past several months as “the hardest transition in my life, all things considered,” as per Yahoo Sports’ Vincent Goodwill.

GloRilla Judged LeBron James’ Rapping Skills In Reaction To His ‘Yeah Glo!’ Video

by

LeBron James impressed Metro Boomin when he rapped along to Kendrick Lamar’s “Like That” verse during warmups ahead of the Los Angeles Lakers’ win over the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday, March 31. GloRilla heaped more praise onto the ever-expanding LeBron James Praise Pile during the latest episode of Club Shay Shay.

Host Shannon Sharpe asked for GloRilla’s reaction to James posting a video of him dancing and rapping along to her February single “Yeah Glo!” The Memphis rapper explained that she found out about it while getting a massage and noticing her phone “blow up” on the “little massage table” and initially blowing it off before finally looking and seeing that “everybody [was] calling me, like, ‘LeBron just posted your song!’”

GloRilla said she “instantly reposted it,” and then she hit up Rodeo Drive to get something to wear to the Lakers’ game that night because “this is one of the best — not one of the best — this is the best player in the league right now.” Glo paused to clarify that the late Kobe Bryant is her favorite player, but James is second.

Sharpe rained on her parade, saying, “He ain’t know not one word.” GloRilla countered with, “He knew the words! He did! I done watched LeBron rap songs and not know the words for real. He knew ‘Yeah Glo!’ He probably ain’t say, like, certain words, but that was good for him because he don’t be knowing songs for real. He knew more words than usual when he was singing ‘Yeah Glo!’”

Ludacris Responds To Katt Williams’ Dubious Claims About Him

by

Right at the start of 2024, Katt Williams set an utterly bizarre tone for the year. That began with his appearance on Club Shay Shay where he spent the entire time making one wild and completely unchecked claim after another. One of those that got the most attention were his claims about Ludacris and the Fast And Furious series. Williams claims he was offered a role in the series but came up with a shocking list of additional factors that played into his potential casting.

Ludacris did respond pretty quickly, both clapping back at some of the claims made against him and calling out Williams. But now he was asked about the comments from the interview during a recent appearance on The Breakfast Club and took a more level-headed approach to his response. First, he claims that he has no idea whether or not Williams was actually offered a role in the franchise. When asked about some of his stranger claims Luda is hardly even sure what to say. He describes the claims as so ridiculous he didn’t even know what Williams was saying and isn’t taking it too seriously because he’s a comedian. Check out the conversation between Charlamagne and Luda below.

He describes not being “ready” to take on the challenge of acting in the franchise when asked follow-up questions.

Ludacris also made an appearance during Usher’s Super Bowl performance earlier this year. They were also joined by Lil Jon to deliver their classic hit “Yeah! ” What do you think of Ludacris taking a pretty relaxed approach to addressing Katt Williams’ comments about him? Do you think Williams was just trying to make people laugh with his bizarre comments? Let us know in the comment section below.

She had some of the choicest words for Haddish, saying: “Tiffany, if you had a husband like mine, you may not have two DUIs. If you had a husband like mine, you may not be caught up in what looks like you could have been grooming a child.”
