![GloRilla Hits Back At Fabolous' Female Rap Critique: 'What [Do] Men Rap About?'](https://hiphopdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/glorilla-hits-back-at-fabolous-female-rap-critique.jpg?w=860)
GloRilla has fired back at Fabolous after his recent comments on the current state of female rap, offering her own critique of her male counterparts’ music.
Back in July, Fab took to social media to criticize what he thinks has become a one-dimensional genre, claiming that women in Hip Hop only make one style of rap.
On his Instagram Story, the Brooklyn native wrote: “I love hearing female rappers talking some real shit. Women are so strong. Have so many stories and perspectives that we need to hear in pure form.”
He added: “No disrespect to any female rappers out there, but I think there’s only one style of female rap being promoted, programmed, and looked at as successful now.”
GloRilla responded to Fab’s comments in a GQ cover story published on Wednesday (December 13). She challenged Fab’s critique by pointing out the negativity in male rappers’ content: “What men rap about? Killing, fucking, robbing, cars, money.”
“Females rapping about the same shit,” she continued. “But guess what? We’re not killing. We’re not in gangs. We’re not robbing. That’s what men be doing. What we doing? We’re sitting pretty, we’re popping our shit, we’re hustling, we’re getting money. We fuck, so we rap about what we do.”
Recent discourse about negativity in Hip Hop has been a hot topic amongst fans and artists alike. E-40 recently added to the conversation during a sit-down with CBS Mornings, where he called on MCs to tell cautionary tales rather than glorifying negativity.
“I don’t like where [Hip Hop] is at,” he said during the interview. “Because I feel like it’s not enough creativity. Everyone sounds the same. A lot of copycats.”
“I’m not tryna act like I’m hella positive,” he added. “But I am because I’m a storyteller. The things that sound like they ain’t positive, I talk about the repercussions and consequences if you do this. I’m a storyteller.”
The Bay Area legend echoed a sentiment similar to that of Lil Yachty, who recently came under fire for saying that the genre is in a “terrible place” right now.
“The state of Hip Hop right now is a lot of imitation. It’s a lot of quick, low-quality music being put out,” he said during a sit-down with Tierra Whack for Rolling Stone last month. “It’s a lot less risk-taking, it’s a lot less originality … People are too safe now. Everyone is so safe. I’d rather take the risk than take the L.”e the L.”
This sid the sloth lookin azz b*tch don’t rap good enough to have such an opinion about male or female rappers. There are many male conscious rappers that don’t rap about killing or robbing but every female rapper that is mainstream raps about what fabulous is talking about. Talentless wh*res who love to rap about their STD infected p*ssies
But, you, someone who doesn’t rap or contribute to hip-hop has a more valid opinion than her? How does that make sense with your logic?
This has literally nothing do with what I said but you’re a glorilla fan so it’s only expected that you’d be retarted as well, It is only a fool like you who thinks the artist is bigger than the audience because there won’t be one without the other. So yes, my opinion matters b*tch
Bitch jist say anything. GLORIA IS DONE! Why are the talking to her????These hoes are “rapping” about killing and drugs and all the same shit that men are. KILL ALL OF HIPHOP AND IT’S CULTURE!
Female rap is utter garbage. She admitted her raps are one dimensional talking about taking dick. There are no more true artists, just curated choices by executives
Well Saucy Santana raps about that too. I’d hella smash that.
Rapsody been the only female that be spitting real bars, Lady London and Scar Lip are kinda nice too
Che Noir nice
she has a point coz female rappers outlive male rappers..since male rappers are violent in their music
This dumb ass girl missed the whole message
