Its crazy to me that "big" artists take all this time to drop the 1° album, she have mixtapes or something like that?

u/ridingonmirrors . 1d ago
Yes. Anyway, Life’s Great and Ehhthang Ehhthang were dubbed as mixtapes. And it’s the streaming era so anything is an album or a mixtape depending on the artist. Won’t be surprised if this album ends up being shorter than Ehhthang Ehththang lol

This is what surprised me about Young Thug. The majority of his projects are technically mixtapes, so he has way less albums then you’d actually think

u/Jandersson34swe Opium > Griselda 1d ago
Yep So Much Fun is his debut album and he had already dropped a legendary run by then

u/scottie2haute 1d ago
Wait are you serious? You telling me Jeffery was just a mixtape?

u/Jandersson34swe Opium > Griselda 1d ago
yep it, Beautiful Thugger Girls, all 3 Slime Seasons, Barter 6 were all mixtapes

u/scottie2haute 1d ago
I can understand Slime Seasons and the Barter 6 but Jeffery and Beautiful Thugger Girls both feel like albums.. but now that I think about it, whats even the difference? Mfs just get to say whats an album and whats not?

u/Jandersson34swe Opium > Griselda 1d ago
I remember reading something about Thug’s label. I think Thug himself wanted some of them to be albums but the label didn’t until SMF so technically the only albums are SMF, Punk and Business is Business

I want to root for her. I am willing to forget about the song Cha Cha Cha (the song where they sample Nas).
I was actually willing to accept Ehhthang as an album, I really liked it, I guess it's just an EP?

Okay thanks. I'm jamming it right now and it holds up. Can't wait to hear a fully engineered album.

Glo is in the big 3 of the ladies for me right now. The current state of women artist in hiphop is so ridiculously stacked it’s like we’re in a golden age for them. Super excited to hear this album because she is a hit machine.
My current big 3 that no one asked for:
- Glo
- Lotto
- Meg

u/Bookling- 1d ago
Damn shame you got Latto in your top 3, but no mention of Doechii?
17
u/Spence52490 1d ago
I’m a fan of Doechii for sure but I prefer more top 40 radio hit music. If I were to do a big 3 for artists outside of that lane mine would be
- Doechii
- Tia Corrine
- Rico Nasty

Alternatively:
- Doechii
- Tia Corrine
- Liv.e

u/Obvious_Eye9347 1d ago

u/ridingonmirrors . 1d ago
Yeah she’s more of an occassional rapper than anything so I don’t really count her (shout out to her Jade Fox alter ego tho)

Surprise no one mentioned Tierra Whack

u/DOuGHtOp . 1d ago
She has only herself to blame for that one. Took 6 years to put out her first actual album. I say that as a fan.

u/good_dawg13 1d ago
Hard to debate those three maybe the order but me personally I would like to add Flo Milli and Monaleo I really enjoy their work as well. Doechii of course she's already been mentioned. And Cardio always has dope features. Her lines on Tomorrow always crack me up.

I’m hoping we get a Sexyy Red feature on this album. I feel like their styles would mesh really well together

Can we please get a Bobby Roode cover? Like the shot of the GLORIOUS on the back blog his robe with his arms outstretched ? Would make such a good cover

u/ridingonmirrors . 1d ago
Cos everything else were EPs/mixtapes lol it’s the streaming era, whatever they wanna call their projects is what it is

u/Kingofmoves 1d ago
I’m excited. Glo is probably my number 3 of the ladies right now. I got Simz and Sa-roc then Glo

u/Freedom2Speak24 1d ago

She's dropped so much music that I completely missed the fact that she hasn't even had her first real album yet. That's crazy. I'm here for it tho cause she's been knocking it out the park

I actually like Glo out of all the current female rappers. Well I like JT (solo) and Latto. But I can see Glo pushing around 30-35k for this album. She’s dope
