GloRilla, a rising rapper from Memphis, Tennessee, is taking the music world by storm. She has collaborated with Cardi B on her hit single “Tomorrow 2,” and is a Grammy Award-nominated artist.
She’s no stranger to altercations with her fans.
GloRilla was recently booked to perform at Insomnia Nightclub in Oakland, California. However, fans began turning on her after she failed to deliver on her performance promises.
The incident took place at Insomnia Nightclub
A video of a fan throwing a jacket during Glorilla’s performance at Insomnia Nightclub has gone viral. The clip was filmed by a customer and has since been posted to YouTube. The video features a woman whose clothing is strewn across the dance floor. It also includes a man who is seen attempting to pick up the clothing and put it in a bag. The video, which is being promoted by the Houston based ad agency Ketchum, has received over 230,000 views so far.
Despite the accolades, Insomnia Nightclub was snubbed by Harris County officials last week for its alleged late-night booze-fueled shenanigans. The club boasted bar hours that lasted well into the wee hours of the morning and was found to be operating illegally. The venue was cited in two separate lawsuits by the county’s office of code enforcement. During one of the visits, undercover officers bought drinks at 3 a.m., which prompted the prosecution to order a temporary restraining order and nuisance abatement.
There is no word on whether the location will reopen under new management or be shuttered for good. It is also unclear whether the bar has a sister club in the works.
The video has since gone viral
Glorilla is a rapper with a very large fan base, but there’s a lot that people don’t know about her. The 23-year-old rapper recently signed to Yo Gotti’s label CMG, and her music has already made her one of the hottest female artists in the industry. GloRilla is rapidly rising as one of the most sought-after artists in the rap industry, thanks to her chart-topping tracks like “F.N.F.” and a successful collaboration with Cardi B.
She recently released her debut album, “Anyways Life’s Great.” But on Wednesday night (February 7), GloRilla was reportedly attacked by fans during her performance at New Karibbean City in Oakland. According to TMZ, the video shows her being taken to safety by security while she is surrounded by angry attendees.
In addition to her success as a musician, GloRilla has a criminal past, stealing cereal from K-Mart and spending time in jail. She recently spoke with REVOLT’s Big Facts about her past, and she revealed that she had a rough childhood. She also said that she’s planning to get into acting soon, as she always wanted to be on camera. Check out the interview below! And, be sure to follow her on Instagram at glorillapimp.

GloRilla denies that she was booked to perform
The 23-year-old Memphis rapper Glorilla is a fan favorite. She has gained popularity after her breakout singles “F.N.F.” and “Tomorrow 2,” which made her one of the biggest female rappers in hip-hop.
But even though she is a beloved star, GloRilla has had to deal with some trouble lately. This time, she was caught in a controversy after someone threw a jacket at her during her performance.
While some fans may think that throwing objects onstage is funny, it can get pretty annoying. Moreover, it can also ruin a performance. This is what happened to the Memphis rapper last week when she performed at Insomnia Nightclub in Oakland, California.
In the video, a fan threw a jacket at GloRilla while she was performing. It was enough to ruin her mood, so she paused her set. She then took a moment to apologize to the fan who threw the jacket.
As you can see in the clip, GloRilla was trying to get the crowd to cheer for her when suddenly a fan threw a jacket onstage. She went on to say that she did not know who threw the jacket but it ruined her show.
The incident came just a week after a different altercation took place at Complex in Oakland. The promoter for the venue, Con B, took to Instagram to clear up the situation. He reportedly paid $30,000 for GloRilla to perform but she only did a walkthrough.
This has lead to a dispute between GloRilla and the promoter. According to a post by Shade Room, the promoter wants GloRilla to refund him $30k.
However, Yo Gotti, who signed GloRilla to his CMG label, has responded to the promoter and said that she was not booked to perform at the venue. Instead, she was supposed to do a walkthrough and that is why her appearance at the club was altered.
He wrote in the comment section of The Shade Room’s post that he “booked lil Glo NOT Big Glo #CMG.” In addition to this, he posted an Instagram video of a sold-out GloRilla show and what the crowd looked like at the event.
Yo Gotti responds
The Memphis rapper GloRilla is one of the biggest breakout artists this year, thanks to her hit song “F.N.F.” She’s also been nominated for a Grammy and has been on the road promoting her latest project, Anyways, Life’s Great.
On Wednesday night, GloRilla was in San Francisco to perform at a club called New Karibbean City. According to TMZ, she and her team were escorted out of the venue when a fan threw a drink at her, causing tensions to rise.
A video that has since gone viral shows a woman throwing a drink at GloRilla as she and her team make their way out of the venue. She spits at the fan and then gets into an altercation with another woman on her side, who yells, “F*ck you bitch,” before security intervenes.
Yo Gotti, who signed GloRilla to his CMG label last year, is now speaking out against the promoter of the event. He took to social media to defend his artist and refute the claim that she was paid $30K to perform.
In his post, Gotti urged people to not judge an artist on the basis of one incident, and suggested that if they do, they should be more careful.
He also posted a clip of GloRilla performing at a sold-out show and showed that the crowd was very happy with her performance.
GloRilla has been in the news a lot lately, as she recently signed to Yo Gotti’s CMG record label and is currently on tour. In addition to her success, she also recently got in hot water after resurfacing tweets from her high school days that praised Young Dolph, who was killed in November of this year.
Despite the backlash, she officially became a member of CMG on Tuesday, which meant she met Gotti in his private jet. She also received stacks of cash and a CMG chain from him, as she celebrated her signing.
GloRilla is now battling it out in the music industry with her new single, “Wat U On,” which tackles some of the most basic relationship s**t that ordinary people fight over. She’s teamed up with MoneyBagg Yo to deliver a track that is sure to get you on the dance floor.
