GloRilla hopped on the rap scene in 2022 and hasn’t looked back since. The Memphis rap scene may be getting tons of attention now, but its impact has deep roots that go back to some of the early years of Hip-Hop. From artists like 8Ball & MJG to the Oscar award-winning group Three 6 Mafia, the Memphis rap sound is a staple among fans of the genre. And newer artists like GloRilla ensure the sound remains at Hip-Hop’s forefront.

When in talks about summer song contenders for 2022, GloRilla and Hitkidd’s “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” enters into the conversation. Since the hit’s release in April, life has truly been on go-mode for 22-year-old rapper GloRilla. The way the record took off — going from social media to around the world — led to GloRilla becoming signed to fellow Memphis native Yo Gotti’s CMG imprint only about three months after her single dropped, which has over 33 million views on YouTube (as of this writing). “It’s one of the quickest rises that I’ve seen in my career, because she only dropped in late April and now she has the hottest cultural records in music,” he declared, according to Billboard. “She has a different sound and approach that’s needed in hip-hop right now.” In such a short span of time, she is playing her own role in putting her city — especially its aspiring female rappers — on the map. “It’s sometimes still unreal because this is what I always dreamed about and hoped would be...
