Boosie Badazz Reunites With Webbie At Boosie Bash, Invites GloRilla To Perform “Yeah Glo!”

by

Boosie Badazz recently hosted his fifth annual Boosie Bash in his hometown of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, a three-day event of parties and a hip-hop music festival. Moreover, on Friday (March 15), he held a talent showcase, and today (Sunday, March 17), he will bring together a finale party at Red Stick Social. The big event, though, was the Trill Entertainment rapper’s festival on Saturday (March 16), and he brought out a lot of artists last night. There was Jeezy, 42 Dugg, Jacquees, the 41-year-old’s reunion with labelmate Webbie, and GloRilla, who came out to perform her new banger “Yeah Glo!“

Furthermore, folks probably know that Webbie and Boosie have kept up a close relationship as of late, which is heartening considering their history together. They’ve been supporting each other since the Trill days in the late 1990s and early 2000s, and seeing this scene still alive and kicking is a nice sight. In addition, it’s also great to see rappers who are more active and relevant today give these MCs the flowers they deserve. Hopefully it’s a generational crossover that continues throughout 2024, and hopefully more industry peers craft experiences that open this door.

Boosie & Webbie Cross Paths Again

As for GloRilla, we know that Boosie is quite fond of her in unexpected, creative, and downright comical ways. For example, he named his dog after her last year, and we can’t deny that that’s an honor that very few rappers can claim. After all, who’s out here naming their dog Hov, or 6ix God, or Roman, or Kung Fu Kenny? We’re sure there are probably wilder examples of this out there, but in this case, it’s a curious but wholesome example of Southern solidarity.

GloRilla Performs “Yeah Glo!” At The Bash

Meanwhile, Badazz is still adept at dishing out his takes, hot or cold, on the latest hip-hop happenings in the wider pop culture space. Most recently, he called Ye out for claiming he invented all popular music from the last 20 years. If that was the case, then maybe this bash wouldn’t have been as successful as it was. Regardless, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Boosie Badazz, Webbie, and GloRilla.

How Are Cardi B And GloRilla Related?

by

In addition to being one of the more exciting young voices in rap music today, it’s turning out that GloRilla is also one of the best connected. After Glo recently revealed that she and Lil Uzi Vert are cousins and sharing a cute moment with Saweetie backstage at the Billboard Women In Music Awards, another of her relations was revealed.

Appearing on Los Angeles radio show Big Boy’s Neighborhood while doing press in the city for her new album rollout, Cardi B casually dropped that she just found out that GloRilla is her cousin as well. According to Cardi, her grandfather lived in Tennesse for a time, having a child with a woman who wasn’t Cardi’s grandmother. That child is GloRilla’s dad! Big Boy, like all of us, looks to be blown away by this tidbit.

Cardi and Glo collaborated in 2022 on the remix of GloRilla’s single “Tomorrow,” a song that turned out to be a fan favorite and helped propel GloRila to her current level of popularity. It looks like that song wasn’t just another example of solidarity for women in rap — it was also a family reunion. Does this mean Cardi is related to Lil Uzi Vert too? Probably not directly, but it is fun to see how connected the rap world really is because it’s a reflection of how connected we all are as people.

Cardi B Reveals GloRilla Is Her Cousin

Cardi B and GloRilla have a lot of love for each other, and the “Tomorrow 2” collaborators displayed some great chemistry on that track. Hopefully it isn’t the last time we see them team up on wax, as they both have a lot more big musical moves to make in 2024. However, a pretty big reason as to why fans are now excited about a reunion has to do with a much deeper bond than just being industry peers. Moreover, Bardi recently sat down for a conversation with Big Boy and told him about how the two femcees are actually closer than what they or fans expected.

“A lot of people don’t know this,” Cardi B began. “Like, nah, this is a true story. Like, I don’t like to put my family business [out there], like, but he used to push weight and everything. And there was, like, this one time that, like… you know, like, he lived in Tennessee and whatever. So he ain’t really told, like, my grandma that he was dealing with somebody over there. Then, like, he had, like, a kid out there. And, you know, like, that’s GloRilla’s dad and everything, so that’s why me and cuz related.”

Meanwhile, this is what GloRilla had to say about Cardi B being there for her throughout her career. “She had hit me up already when I was blowing up,” she expressed concerning her cousin back in October of 2022. “Soon as I had landed in New York and I was going through the airport, she had sent me a little voicemail message, you know, giving me advice and motivating me like that. She’ll like my stuff, then when I was in the studio one day and I was listening to all my songs like, ‘Who can I put on this song?’

“They were trying to surprise me with it,” the Memphis MC continued. “Yo Gotti was trying to surprise me but I ended up finding out because I was trying to get her on another song. So, she sent me the little clips, she DMs them to me, and I’m like, ‘Oh, my God! She just murdered this song!” For more news and the latest updates on GloRilla and Cardi B, stay logged into HNHH.

GloRilla & Saweetie Have A Sweet Interaction At The Billboard Women In Music Awards: Watch

by

I think most people can agree that competition, as well as friendships in hip-hop are both good for the genre. Not having enough of each could lower the attention it gets. Both add a sense of fascination, keeping fans hooked outside of the music itself. However, talking about beefs can be a little disheartening. There is already so much hate in this world, and seeing artists argue over insignificant things (most of the time) is frustrating. However, we are happy to say that GloRilla and Saweetie are two female rappers that are still friends. It seems there is a lot of animosity with a majority of the femcees, so seeing them still close is nice. GloRilla and Saweetie both popped out to the Billboard Women in Music Awards and rekindled their relationship.

The celebration of women’s contributions in music continued on Wednesday, March 6, marking its 17th anniversary. According to Billboard, it was available to watch on livestream one day later. Of course, like any award show, there is a red carpet portion of the evening and GloRilla and Saweetie took that time to catch up. In the video below, you can check out their adorable interaction at the Billboard event.

They hugged it out and chatted for a minute and fans were happy to see them be so cordial with one another. “She said Saweetie was the first celebrity to reach out and give her, her flowers when she was coming up 🫶🏿 look at you winning,” one person says. Another adds, “Saweetie is really a girl’s girl 😍I love her and love Glo!” While they still have not made music together, both are popping off right now with “Yeah Glo!” and “Richtivities.”

What are your thoughts on GloRilla and Saweetie’s link-up at the Billboard Women in Music Awards? Are the best female rap friends in the game right now, why or why not? Is friendship or more competition better for hip-hop and why? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Saweetie And GloRilla Shared A Sweet Moment At Billboard’s Women In Music Awards Despite Rumors Of Beef Between Them

In 2022, as GloRilla’s breakout hit “FNF (Let’s Go)” dominated playlists and airwaves, fans breathlessly speculated about which of her fellow rap it-girls would appear on the track’s heavily anticipated remix. When it did come out, they got a surprise: while it had originally been billed to feature Saweetie, the released version instead featured JT of City Girls and Latto.

The abrupt change led to rumors that GloRilla and Saweetie had some behind-the-scenes issue — rumors that GloRilla did her best to brush off later that year. But at last night’s Billboard Women In Music Awards, the two rappers shared a sweet moment backstage that should put the rumors to rest once and for all. In a video making the rounds on social media, GloRilla appears to have noticed Saweetie walking by as she posed for photos. Ditching the shoot, Glo traipses over to intercept Saweetie and they exchange kind words and hugs.

At some point during the night, they also posed for Getty photographer Michael Buckner, resulting in a raft of pics of the pair embracing. It looks like they’re on relatively decent terms, so while there’s still no explanation on why the “FNF” remix didn’t feature Saweetie, perhaps we’ll get another collaboration instead.

GloRilla Addresses Her Viral NSFW Nip Slip Video With A Rather Perky Response To Users Online

Since finding viral success with her 2022 track “F.N.F. (Let’s Go),” GloRilla has become quite comfortable in the limelight. But, there’s one thing she’s still settling into—her brand new breast implants.

In fact, GloRilla accidentally flashed her four million followers online during an Instagram livestream. Immediately, fans began to clip the moment, reposting it across the social media platform. Although the “Yeah Glo!” rapper isn’t ashamed of her innocent peep show, supporters have begun to flood her comments with remarks about the moment. So, on March 2, GloRilla addressed it with a rather perky response on another broadcast.

“Let me tell ya somethin’,” she said. “Stop acting like y’all are so muthaf*ckin’ amazed by a nipple. Baby, ain’t it sh*t but a nipple. Calm down. Please calm down.”

GloRilla didn’t stop there. She went on to scold her followers for screen-recording the moment. “I don’t know, I’m not going to do sh*t in the background f*cking around with y’all,” she said. “Baby, y’all see everything. Y’all gonna record that sh*t. Y’all don’t play them type of games.”

In December 2023, GloRilla shared the news of her body modification on Instagram. “I just bought some new titties,” she said. “Y’all like my new titties? I’m on my bullsh*t, I just bought some new titties. I ain’t with that overboard sh*t. These are just a little fill-in. Just filled them in.”

Since then, GloRilla has kept supporters updated on her recovery process.

Are Lil Uzi Vert & GloRilla Cousins?

by

Rap is full of fun and unexpected familial connections. While some are well-known, like Baby Keem and Kendrick Lamar, others often come as a surprise to fans. Sometimes, they’re even a surprise to the rappers themselves, as with Denzel Curry and Smino finding out they were related in 2021. Other interesting entertainment families include Nas and Tracy Morgan, Saweetie and Gabrielle Union, and of course, Quavo and Takeoff, who briefly considered going by “Unc And Phew” after splitting from Offset, who was shockingly not actually related to either.

But one familial bond no one could expect was recently revealed by Memphis upstart GloRilla, who noted during a recent interview that she’s related to another rapper despite being from over 1,000 miles away in Philadelphia. Appearing on the Bottoms Up With Fannita podcast, Glo was asked whether she’d collaborate with Lil Uzi Vert, and instead of answering outright, she noted, “That’s my cousin,” to the surprise and delight of the show’s host, Fannita Leggett. Undeterred, Leggett wondered why the two hadn’t collaborated yet since they have an existing connection, and Glo cagily replied, “We actually workin’ on it… we just gotta get it together.” Fans will undoubtedly be waiting for that if only to hear how the two divergent rappers’ flows will mesh.

GloRilla Got A Photo With An NBA All-Star, But She’d Like More Than Just The Pic: ‘I Want Him’

NBA All-Star Weekend doesn’t just bring out the world’s best basketball players, as celebrities usually turn up to check out the finest collection of the game’s talent in person. GloRilla was among the recognizable figures to flock to Indiana this weekend, where she met Damian Lillard… and made it clear she’d like to get to know him even better.

The rapper posed for a photo with the Milwaukee Bucks star, shortly after he won the All-Star Game MVP award. Glo used the photo to shoot her shot, sharing it and writing on X (formerly Twitter), “Who n**** dis is ? Cause I want him #GetEmGlo.” She added in a follow-up tweet, “Whoever she is can’t whoop me so I really dgaf.”

Lillard hasn’t publicly responded to GloRilla’s post, but he’d presumably at least be up for talking about hip-hop with her: As Dame D.O.L.L.A., Lillard has four rap albums to his name and has worked with collaborators like Lil Wayne, Snoop Dogg, and Lil Durk.

As for Lillard’s relationship status, he married his wife, Kay’La Lillard, in 2021. The two met while in college and they have three children together. However, towards the end of 2023, Lillard filed for divorce. In a February interview, he spoke about the challenges that has presented, saying, “As much as I love basketball, and I love my job, I don’t care about it more than I care about my kids. Of course you carry it with you. People say, ‘When I hoop I ain’t thinking about nothing,’ but I’m not 21. I got three kids. I’m tight with my family and I’m going through a divorce.”

Shaq’s Cringe-Worthy Exchange With GloRilla At NBA All-Star Weekend Might Give You Second-Hand Embarrassment: Watch

While GloRilla was busy falling head over heels for Damian Lillard, Shaq was seemingly in awe of the Memphis rapper. NBA All-Star weekend was another dud for many people, but a little less so for the Milwaukee Bucks point guard. He wound up taking home the trophy for the highly competitive 3-Point Contest. Dame actually became the first to repeat since the outings in 2007 and 2008. Then, on Sunday, he would go on to take the 73rd All-Star Game MVP with a 39-point performance. GloRilla certainly felt some type of way because she was eager to snag a picture with the decorated player. She was thirsting hard for him, tweeting, “Who n**** dis is? Cause I want him #GetEmGlo.”

Love was seemingly in the air all weekend long as Shaq was making sure GloRilla knew his feelings about her. His admiration for her actually dates back to December 2022 when Shaq asked her to marry him on Druski and Glo’s Instagram Live. He commented on the stream, “glo will u marry me.” Now, after that viral moment, he finally got the chance to see the up-and-comer from the South in person.

Shaq Had To Interrupt GloRilla & 50 Cent’s Photo To Say Hello

According to HipHopDX, the NBA legend was walking around courtside during the festivities. He was giving fans as close a look as possible to what it was like to be at All-Star weekend. Shaq Cam eventually led him to GloRilla taking a picture with 50 Cent, in what had to have a cool moment for her. However, it might have slightly been soured by Shaq’s looming presence. Glo was caught off guard in the moment, clearly not seeing the seven-footer in her peripheral. He awkwardly but hilariously interrupted the photo shoot telling GloRilla, “Hello Ms. Glo! You look awesome!” She laughed it off and it all seemed to be a cute interaction. But we would be lying if we were not getting a little bit of second-hand embarrassment.

What are your thoughts on Shaq’s awkward interaction with GloRilla at NBA All-Star weekend? Was this funny at all to you, or just cringe-worthy? Is GloRilla making a mini comeback this year? What was your favorite moment from the events this past weekend? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.
