GloRilla opens up about how she came to embrace her unapologetically trademark voice, as well as realizing that she needs to slow down and smell the roses instead of just focusing on the moment to come
GloRilla admits she was “embarrassed” by her iconic voice
The “Tomorrow 2” rapper touched on the topics during a recent sit-down with Elle, and she admitted that her voice at first “shame” to her, like Glo “I wanted to be like a girl.”
“When I first came out rapping, I was trying to sound like a little girl. I was saying some hard s**t, but only in a little girly-a*s voice. I was trying to change my sound because I have a deeper natural voice. I was a bit shy, because I wanted to be like a girl. “
When 2021 came around, however, GloRilla “changed her sound” and allowed her voice to “get deeper and deeper” on her tracks.
“That’s when I first changed my sound. That’s the year my voice started getting deeper and deeper.”
This sentiment echoes the statement she gave on the matter earlier. In a January 2023 sit-down with The Cut, Glo recalled that her voice came out “squeaky” when she tried to “sound like a girl” while starting out in the rap game.
After some friends informed her about this, GloRilla decided, “Let me emphasize what I already look like, just add a little more sauce.”
Additionally, after Twitter users commented on the depth of her voice in “Blessed,” Glory hilariously added, “My voice is only so deep because my P***y is so good.”

The Rapper appreciates her hard work and her current achievements
In addition to angling to embrace her “naturally deeper voice,” GloRilla also spoke about an important lesson she learned about appreciating her blessings and not to live “so focused on. [the] future.”
“The first award I got was where I am now. My friend and I recently had a conversation about how we are so focused on our future – what else can we do to be better than what we are doing now? We forget that what we have now is what we have [always] pray for her.”
Although Glo is all about living in the moment and enjoying the fruits of her labor, she nevertheless gives fans a preview of what to expect on the her next project.
Especially, since she was “on [her] hood s**t” as she recorded it Anyway, Life is great… EP, she plans to use “different sounds” in her upcoming album. However, she reassures fans that she is still going to be “still [be] raw and uncut.”
“Here [new album] it will still be mine, still raw and uncut. But just knowing what it’s like to be here and [experimenting with] different sounds. Because I was hooded all the time.”
GloRilla said, “This time, it’s not just me being sorry. I got a couple of different sounds coming on this one.”
