GloRilla has been ranked as the hottest female rapper of 2024 by Billboard. In response to the recognition, she posted on X (formerly Twitter), writing, “Ayyeee 🥳🥳 s/o to all da women on da list !!! We dem 🔥,” acknowledging her peers who were also featured.
The Billboard list included notable female rappers in descending order: Megan Thee Stallion, Nicki Minaj, Sexyy Red, Latto, Doechii, Doja Cat, JT, Rapsody, and Cardi B. GloRilla’s position reflects her increasing influence in the hip-hop industry.
This accolade adds to her achievements this year. Recently, her collaboration with Sexyy Red, “Whatchu Kno About Me,” secured the top spot on the TikTok Billboard Top 50 chart. Additionally, in October, GloRilla released her debut album, GLORIOUS. The album featured contributions from Megan Thee Stallion, Latto, Sexyy Red, Kirk Franklin, T-Pain, and others.
In an interview with Billboard, GloRilla explained her approach to releasing the album. Initially scheduled for last year, the project was delayed so she could release a mixtape first. She shared that the mixtape helped reconnect with her audience and prepared the groundwork for her album. “The mixtape did good and did what it was supposed to do, which prepped me for my album,” she said.
This year’s accomplishments highlight GloRilla’s growing presence in music, with both her collaborative projects and solo work receiving significant attention.
