Rising rapstress GloRilla may be ‘f*ck n**** free’ as her breakout hit proclaims, but she’s definitely not drama free thanks to murmurs of a feud with fellow femcee Saweetie.

But if a social media post lifted to Glo’s Instagram Friday afternoon is anything to judge by, that suggestion couldn’t be further from the truth.

Super Freaky Girls unite!

Just a few weeks after Nicki Minaj soared to the top of the Hot 100 (and inside history books) on the strength of her latest single, ‘Super Freaky Girl,’ the GRAMMY nominee is looking to push the Rick James-sampling cut back to its former chart glory by enlisting help from a few friends.

Summer may be nearing its end, but – if the music video for her latest single ’23’ is indication – Sevyn Streeter is not done bringing the heat!

“I been working out all summer for these pics / Milkshake, getting thick / He gon’ shoot his shot, but he gon’ hit a brick / If I shoot my shot, just know I never miss,” Streeter sings.
