GloRilla & Sexyy Red Go Golden For Duo Performance
As mentioned, this year, the iHeartRadio Music Awards took place in L.A., specifically at the Dolby Theater. Big Glo was scheduled to take the stage for a multi-song performance, and she tapped her ‘Glorious’ collaborators to give viewers a show, show! The ladies dressed in complimentary golden fits, with Sexyy Red rocking her signature red tresses and GloRilla going for a natural buss down!
After The Shade Room reposted the footage of the performance, the roomies went wild in the Instagram comment section.

If you didn’t know, ‘Whatchu Kno About Me’ is the fifth song on GloRilla’s newest album and features only Sexyy Red. The song’s official music video was released five months ago. As of Tuesday (March 18), it has over 64 million views and more than 18,000 comments on YouTube. That energy they gave on the stage? Yup, they doubled it in the two-minute-plus visual. See it for yourself below!
Memphis Rapper K Carbon Also Hit The iHeart Stage
The iHeartRadio Music Awards stage isn’t the only one GloRilla has recently graced. As previously reported, she is also on the U.S. leg of her ‘Glorious’ tour. Most recently, she went viral for giving a spicy lap dance on stage to one of her opening acts, Boston Richey. The tour began earlier this month and will likely conclude in late April with a final stop in Memphis. While she also had Muni Long, BossMan Dlow, Kirk Franklin, T-Pain, Fridayy, and Latto on her album, it’s unclear if any of them will be joining her on tour.

She didn’t repeat THAT choreography for her awards performance. However, she did tap another ‘Glorious’ collaborator to hit the stage. K Carbon, another female rapper from Memphis, is featured on the album’s outro, ‘Never Find.’ Carbon and Glo have featured on multiple other songs together, too, from ‘Shabooya’ to ‘Wrong One.’ See K do her thing starting at the 1:00 mark of GloRilla’s iHeartRadio Music Awards performance below.
Before The BIG Stages, There Was THIS GloRilla
Amid Glo taking the iHeartRadio stage, a throwback video of her in the studio went viral. Early Tuesday, she reposted the clip on her page, comparing it to a more recent video of her rapping the same song. In the caption, she wrote, “Bit you gotta GLO UP one day you might as well.”
These days, GloRilla’s studio sessions are crossing into other lanes. Earlier this month, she hopped on LiAngelo Ball’s song, ‘Can You Please.’ Most recently, Halle Bailey teased a banger that apparently features a lil’ bit of Glo’s magic.
