Rihanna recently reached out to GloRilla via Instagram, expressing her eagerness for the rapper’s new album. GloRilla’s latest single, “TGIF,” released in June, caught Rihanna’s attention, prompting her to post a video of herself dancing to the track. On July 2, Rihanna slid into GloRilla’s DMs to ask when the full album would drop, a request that holds a touch of irony given Rihanna’s own lengthy hiatus from releasing new music since her 2016 album, Anti.

Rihanna’s direct message quickly made waves on social media, amusing fans who are well aware of the pop star’s own history of delayed releases. In her message, Rihanna humorously acknowledged her hypocrisy, writing, “You got all summer sis. I know dis wild hypocritical, but when the album drop?”

GloRilla’s latest project, a mixtape titled Ehhthang Ehhthang, was released in April of this year and includes the hit single “Wanna Be.” Every piece of music GloRilla has released has come after Rihanna’s last album, underscoring the irony of Rihanna’s impatience.Glorilla

GloRilla has discussed her evolving musical style, emphasizing her efforts to stay true to her roots with Ehhthang Ehhthang, despite her rising popularity. In an interview with iHeartRadio, she explained, “The songs are just so raw. I was going back to my roots. I rebranded on it because last year I was just trying to go so big when I was in album mode.”

Looking ahead, GloRilla plans to take a different approach with her upcoming album, aiming for a broader appeal. She shared her strategy, saying, “[I wanted to] give em some raw gangsta music before I put my album out. Because I feel like I waited too long to drop last year so I went a whole year without a project.” The success of “TGIF” suggests that her new album might indeed achieve a mainstream breakthrough.

Fans, along with Rihanna, are eagerly anticipating GloRilla’s new album. With her latest single gaining traction, there’s hope that the album release won’t be too far off.
