Lil Baby has been trained by GloRilla how to perform her popular “Tomorrow” dance.
Lil Baby appeared apprehensive as he imitated GloRilla’s dance routines, but the CMG rapper encouraged him anyway when he eventually got the hang of it. The two struck up a conversation backstage.
GloRilla gave her “Tomorrow 2” single with Cardi B the visual treatment last month, which prompted the collaboration. Due in part to the viral dance and Cardi’s endorsement, the song has experienced a meteoric rise in popularity. As of right now, the song has received over 22 million Spotify streams.
GloRilla initially broke out with her single “F.N.F (Let’s Go),” but earlier this month met legal troubles with the song’s producer, Hitkidd.
GloRilla was reprimanded by the producer via Twitter after it was claimed that she and her team attempted to claim ownership of the song.
In essence, these people are trying to sue me for the song “FNF” because they want to OWN it, but they also want to OWN it so they can put it on this EP, which both parties knew, according to Hitkidd. So tell me, how did you sneak ‘FNF’ into your contract after I asked you not to?
“I warned you and your MANAGER every single day that we were in LA with Saweetie, warning you that labels would try to sign you due of FNF. I also asked you to notify me when record labels get in touch so that we could coordinate our efforts, but you went ahead and signed my music without informing me.
He added: “I did my best to protect you and the girls. This is only a portion of what I’ve been through. I’m bringing light to this before word gets out that I’m the bad guy. I’m a stand-up guy and I stand on business and morals.”
GloRilla replied to Hitkidd on Facebook, calling him “salty” because she chose to sign with Yo Gotti’s CMG collective rather than his label.
“N-ggas been salty every since ian sign to Dey label to be a group for $0 smh,” she wrote along with multiple crying face emojis.
HitKidd sold the song for $50,000 prior to it going viral, according to GloRilla.
“One more thing before I log out N-GGA YOU SIGNED DA SONG AWAY THE FIRST WEEK( WITHOUT ME KNOWING) FOR 50k BECAUSE YOU DIDNT KNOW HOW BIG IT WAS GONE BE !!!!! SHOULD I KEEP GOING ??????” she asked.
Lil Baby has been working hard to promote his much anticipated fourth studio album It’s Only Me, which broke a record for Billboard earlier this month when all 23 of its songs concurrently charted on the Billboard Hot 100 along with two others.
Lil Baby is now the youngest artist to ever claim 25 slots on the Hot 100 thanks to this accomplishment. He is also only the third artist in history to accomplish such a feat, partially surpassing Drake, whose 27-track double album Scorpion reached the top of the charts in its entirety back in 2018.
With 216,000 equivalent album units sold in its first week, It’s Only Me also opened at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, marking his best first-week sales to date.
