Memphis recording artist GloRilla is making strides in her quest to become a billionaire in the future as her career continues to elevate her status in the industry.
According to AfroTech, GloRilla, whose real name is Gloria Hallelujah Woods, was so determined to be successful as an artist that she was working long hours at Nike and FedEx to finance her dreams.
“I was doing 12 hours at Nike and maybe seven to eight hours at FedEx. And I was just doing all that to sponsor my rapid career so I could be able to pay for videos and studio time,” she said.
GloRilla, who is signed to Yo Gotti’s label, Collective Music Group, has admitted in a podcast discussion in June 2024 that Gotti has helped her curb her spending so that way she can be better with her finances as she works toward billionaire status. She stated that she was spending as much as she was making and had to change course. Gotti arranged for her to have an accountant which helped her with her finances.
“My first year, I blew up. This was
before I got an accountant. I was just spending money, and I’m like, ‘OK, I’m getting it. I’m making it, but I’m spending it too,’” she said. “So, like, I really wasn’t just in tune… So, Gotti had got me an accountant.”She will be adding to her finances after announcing that she is heading out on the road for her own tour. She took to X to let her fans know that she is heading “The Glorious Tour.”
Fox 13 reported that she is appearing in 22 cities in two months starting in Oklahoma City on March 5. The tour will make several stops until it ends on April 18 at Coachella. Real Boston Richey and Queen Key are joining her on the tour.
But, before the tour starts, she is appearing in Inglewood at SoFi Stadium on Feb. 1 to perform at the Honda Battle of the Bands (HBOB).
