(gentle music)
Some of my early influences Chief Keef.
Yes, I looked up to Chief Keef.
Chief Keef like young and turnt
and I feel like I'm young and turnt too.
But like I like that he saying he had his own sound
and it was just turnt.
(upbeat music)
Some of the obstacles I faced was last year
I was just going through a lot of stuff.
I had lost my apartment,
but right before, like this year, earlier this year
I lost my car.
It was just a lot of stuff happening
but you know everything happen in the perfect time
and so they even pushed me to go hard.
Like I always able to maintain,
you know what I'm saying, how I live.
And so everything just got to going downhill
and that pushed me to, you know what I'm saying,
make better music
and get in the studio more and focus on that.
(upbeat music)
Some things that I think people
would be surprised to learn about me is that I'm,
well, I don't know,
I don't think they'll be surprised to think I'm funny
'cause I'm super funny, I'm goofy,
I don't take nothing serious.
Oh, I'm a lovable person.
Like I'm a sweetheart.
I don't know if people know that or not.
I'm a sweetheart and people being a sweetheart to me.
(upbeat music)
In the next 10 years I see myself being a billionaire.
(upbeat music)
I loved 106 & Park, that was my favorite show.
I like BET Countdown.
I like all the old school movies they used to bring back.
Yeah, it was a lot of shows I grew up watching on BET.
But like I said, 106 & Park,
one of my favorite joints then BET Countdown.
(upbeat music)
When I used to watch them shows,
I used to, you know what I'm saying,
picture being there.
I ain't just per se picture being one of the performers
because when I was young
I ain't just think that was gonna be my lane.
So I used to be like maybe I'mma be in the crowd,
you know what I'm saying (laughs).
But I ain't never pictured myself actually there.
I still don't believe it,
but I'm definitely grateful
and I just be super blessed that it was me.
Know what I'm saying like?
Everybody in their category are great artists
and for them to pick me,
I'm gone cry again.
(upbeat music)
It was so good and awesome.
Like Cardi comes from the same type of background
I came from.
Yeah, you know what I'm saying,
the last couple years I've been listening to her,
you know, loving her music
then I do a song with her,
I'm like, it's crazy.
Like I loved everything about her.
She funny, she ain't changed, she still herself.
And so then when I found out she was getting on the song
it was even more crazier.
I was like, what?
Then when I heard the verse I said,
no way she just slid like this.
And like my mama like,
she ain't stop smiling ever since I blew like
it just be so crazy.
Hey, what's up, it's your girl GloRilla
and I'm your BET Amplified Artist Of the Month.
