GloRilla has revealed she didn’t know foxes actually existed until she had a conversation about the animal this week.
During a trip to the UK, the fast-rising Memphis rapper sat down for an interview with Kiss FM where the topic of foxes came up. Presenter Henrie Kwushue explained that London has a fox problem, with the city’s animal population prowling the streets at night and getting up to all sorts of mischief. But GloRilla was shocked to find out they weren’t fictional.
“Foxes? What’s that?” she said. “The animal, fox? Y’all got them out here? That’s normal? So they like dogs? So y’all not scared of them? So they orange? I can’t believe it. I never even knew foxes was real.”
GloRilla shared the clip on her Instagram Stories with laughing emojis.
The 23-year-old released her breakout single “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” in April, which went viral on TikTok and peaked at No. 42 on the Billboard Hot 100. Her success led to signing a record deal with Yo Gotti’s CMG label through Interscope Records.
“I’ve put in years of hard work to get this point and I’m blessed to sign with the hottest label in music with CMG,” she told Billboard following the deal. “I manifested this moment and trusted my talent even when others didn’t. I’m grateful for Gotti for believing in me and I’m not gonna let up. Trust that I have more new heat on the way.”
Speaking on the signing, Yo Gotti added: “GloRilla is a natural born star — she has a different sound and approach that’s needed in Hip Hop right now. 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.
“Glo is hungry for success and determined to win. We look forward to watching her grow as an artist and reach her full potential.”
She went on to collaborate with Cardi B on “Tomorrow 2” in September, with the remix taking her to even bigger heights by peaking at No. 9 on the Hot 100. The song is set to appear on her upcoming nine-track EP, Anyways, Life’s Great…, which is scheduled to be released on November 11.
Speaking to Refinery29 in August, GloRilla explained how the sound of her voice makes her appealing to a male audience.
“I really see it as a good thing,” she explained. “With my voice being the way that it is, I attract all genders and all crowds. I know a lot of dudes that say they don’t listen to female rap and I know some females that say they don’t listen to female rap. But I can rap about girl stuff, but my voice ain’t squeaky or nothing.”
She continued: “And I rap about real life stuff too, so dudes can relate to me with my voice being the way it is and what I be talking about. For the longest I was trying to find my sound because at first my voice used to be squeaky. I ended up finding my sound and everybody liked it.”
Foxes are everywhere lmao they are just hella elusive,even see them from time to time out here in the bay
Kids…that’s why they said to stay in school ?
Ugly mofo
Ho-rilla is talking shit.
Dumb b looking for attention.
“I is stupid – dumb as a rock oh yeh black lives matter” – that’s their game. reject it. don’t play stupid and expect justice for your people
Show me the car fax. What a dumb bitch. Reminds me of those youtube videos where they aak random gen z kids basic middle school questiins and they cant answer shit.
I love it!
Wow you’s a stupid bitch.. How the fuck have you survived in the world this long?
just read her wikipedia. homeschooled until 5th grade. graduated from Martin Luther King College Prep (charter school). she ain’t dumb, she just playin’ dumb…probably trying to get into actin’ or somethin’ cuz foxes are everywhere.
It’s on the south side of Chicago, so I’m sure the level of expectations is low.
the one she went to is in Memphis, TN, where she is from. Similar name to the one in Chicago, but two different schools. the one in TN is a charter school (private board of directors) and the one in Chicago is a public school (state gov’t funded/regulated).
Prolly don’t know they real cuz nobody fox with your music..
You dumb racist fucks she’s far from dumb do your thing BIG GLO I’m so proud of you get money it’s up
look at me im black ima victim u guys all racist
You’re racist for thinking that it is normal for an adult to believe foxes aren’t real. She probably thinks that a fat white man is going to give her free stuff on December 25th.
Your mothers a THOT dummy
not everyone was talking about her race, just saying she’s a real dummy
where did race come into play u dumbshit? Her intelligence is being questioned, nothing to do with race u twit.
Come on, this can’t be real.
What a dumb b*tch! Instead of teaching girls how to twerk she better start teaching young black girls to read.
How could you go through life believing that foxes are fictional? I’ve got so many questions.
She must be a clone!
Normally I think it’s bad when adults don’t even know insects are animals, but this takes it to another level. Then again I knew she was not worthy of basic respect when I saw her first video, and then her second with Cardi B who also likely doesn’t know foxes are real.
Can we hype up women rappers like Sa-roc and Rhaopsody and Che-Noir instead please?
Thank you!
Intelligence in the rap community is spiraling to an all time low.
Put her in a cage with a bound fox. That will be sure to open her eyes fast.
I understand being hood is the trend these days, but C’MON MAN
Shiii baby ain’t know coyotes were in the US til I moved to Arizona lol
How long are we gonna keep promoting and celebrating stupidity? It’s not funny anymore.
My thoughts exactly. It is a little funny though.
That makes me want to put all her lyrics under a huge magnifying glass.
At this rate bears can’t be real. If you see it you’re just hallucinating.
So fairytales aren’t real and if there are foxes in fairytales that must mean foxes aren’t real either.
Dumme Sau
Hängengeblieben
Ihr habt euch verirrt Justus und Steffen
Aber der Fridolin hat doch recht!
Jetzt reichts aber!
Jetzt reichts aber
English, please. I would like to understand and follow your comments. Thanks!
The education system as got to be terrible.
Oh Jesus, unicorns, dragons yes, but why wouldn’t foxes be real?! Who would make up a skinny orange dog as a fantasy animal?
Even leprechauns with pots of gold are real but foxes? Hell no!
Where the hell they find these idiot blacks people from? Please someone tell me the state so I can stay far away from it, what the hell she mean she didn’t know fox’s are real
why do u think so many black artists fail because they cant read or write. half the time u hear a wrapper bitch and moan about their rap contract its because there uneducated losers that cant read or write
They‘re…
There, their, they‘re…. Yeah, so uneducated…
Yep. They want to get straight to the money….and side-step education.
Someone better inform that dumb thot that milk comes from cows and not the supermarket. Nice rolemodels, black community!!!
And imagine foxes when they find out dumb bi*ches like this piece of sh*t are stars.
They would laugh like Hyenas. Ask her if hyenas are even real.
What a combo – ugly AND stupid.
this is a perfect example of black youth. sad af. and im black
Foxes are not to be played with, Glo. Grrr!
Wow, that’s crazy. I know that she’s getting jerked in her contact.
No wonder she’s getting jerked and said she hasn’t mad a dollar off her break out song. Lord have mercy! Smfh Lmao
Wait til she hears elephants are real. Whoa!
I want to hunt foxes with Glo.
She will faint when she hears giraffes are real.
