GRAMMY-nominated recording artist GloRilla lands the biggest Billboard milestone of her career with GLORIOUS debuting at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 with 69,000 album equivalent units. The opening week numbers doubles Glo’s mixtape Ehhthang Ehhthang and is the highest debut for a female hip-hop artist in 2024.
The star-studded album includes features from Megan Thee Stallion, Latto, Sexyy Red, Kirk Franklin, Bossman Dlo, Fridayy, T-Pain, Muni Long, Kierra Sheard, Maverick City Music, and Chandler Moore.
The debut studio album comes after Big Glo trailblazed her way through the music industry with infectious hit records and high-profile collaborations that have won fans around the globe, including this year’s Hot 100 hits “Yeah Glo!,” “TGIF” and “Wanna Be” featuring Megan Thee Stallion. Along with the album debuting at No. 5 on the Billboard 200, Glo’s “TGIF” surged to No. 1 on Rhythmic radio, giving her another impressive win on her resume.

Big Glo continues to be a force in hip-hop after the release of her debut album, GLORIOUS. She has earned recognition from Rihanna, who, after praising her for the hit “TGIF,” said she would want the Memphis superstar to make the official anthem for multi-million-dollar brand Fenty.
Glo’s album also earned a vast cosign from music icon Taylor Swift, who played Glo’s newest anthem, ” WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME,” on social media.
Directed by the legendary Benny Boom, Glo, and Sexyy pay homage to the 2000s rap classic “Wipe Me Down” and even have a guest appearance from Boosie to make this visual a must-watch.
Recently, Glo received the key to the city of Memphis for her musical achievements in September and also performed an exhilarating set at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, where she was also nominated four times and turned heads with a red carpet look inspired by Vogue, which was highlighted in a ‘Get Ready With’ piece with the iconic publication.
