GloRilla

GloRilla was forced to cut short one of her concerts after a number of fights broke out in the audience.

The Memphis rapper and NME 100 alumni was performing at The Factory in St Louis earlier this week when the brawls broke out.

During the first incident she appealed for calm. “Come on man, y’all better than that,” she said before adding: “They still fighting, what the fuck. Come on, y’all ain’t that mad.

She continued: “Ain’t nobody did nothing that bad for y’all to be out there fighting. We here to have a good time. Ya’ll supposed to be feeling glorious at the ‘Glorious Tour’.”

The rapper eventually carried on but was forced to stop again when a second fight broke out.

She said: “I think y’all came to the wrong show,” suggesting that maybe they belonged at a WWE event instead of her ‘Glorious’ concert. After a third brawl broke out, GloRilla eventually cut the concert short. Find footage of the moments above.

Elsewhere, earlier this year the rapper performed ‘Yeah Glo!’ and a medley of tracks from 2024’s ‘Glorious’ during her debut on Saturday Night Live.

Later in her SNL appearence, GloRilla paired ‘Whatchu Kno About Me’, written with rapper Sexyy Red, with ‘Let Her Cook’ from her debut album.

GloRilla released her long-awaited debut ‘Glorious’ last year, which NME gave three stars. “As a body of work, ‘Glorious’ is uneven,” read NME‘s review. “There are a handful of certified hits and a bunch of questionable additions that suggest better quality control was needed here.

“But, with her undeniable energy and beautiful message of girl power, it’s still worth a listen, even if it doesn’t live up to the expectations that her attention-grabbing singles previously set.”

Meanwhile, GloRilla also had two entries on NME‘s 50 best songs of 2024 list: her work on Tyler, The Creator‘s ‘Sticky’ landed at 39, and her summer anthem with Megan Thee Stallion, ‘Wanna Be’, went in at Number 24.
