At this point GloRilla is just a hitmaking factory who’s showing no signs of slowing down production.

Already boasting the year’s biggest female Rap hits (‘Yeah Glo,’ ‘Wanna Be,’ ‘TGIF,’ and ‘Whatchu Kno About Me’), she seems poised to take another ‘Glorious‘ favorite to the Hot 100’s upper rankings: the T-Pain-assisted ‘I Luv Her.’

Having already peaked at #70 on the all-genre chart after the release of its official music video (as of time reported), Glo and T hit the promo trail in the song’s support by storming the stage of ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’ with the cut’s first televised performance.
