The group has recently released their new single titled “Wrong One.” Produced by the renowned Tay Keith, the track is a powerful narrative of dealing with toxic men, a theme that resonates with many listeners.

A Deep Dive into “Wrong One”

“Wrong One” is not just a music track; it’s a statement. The lyrics boldly tell the story of a woman who refuses to be victimized by a deceitful man. The artists use their unique voices and lyrical prowess to depict their stand against such individuals.

The Music Video: A Tale of Retribution

Accompanying the single is a compelling music video that begins with the discovery of GloRilla’s unfaithful partner. The group of women, in response, heads to the man’s house, intending to wreak havoc. One scene from the music video interestingly mirrors the rooftop scene from the 1996 film “Set It Off,” adding a touch of cinematic nostalgia.

The artists have been together for a couple of years, releasing hits like “Shabooya,” “You The Type,” and “Set The Tone.” Their collective success has been a testament to their synergy and shared passion for music.

GloRilla’s Rise to Fame

GloRilla’s career took a significant leap with the release of the HitKidd-backed “F.N.F.

Her recent project, ‎”Anyways, Life’s Great…,” featured the Cardi B-assisted “Tomorrow 2,” which secured the No. 9 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 and received a double platinum certification.

Gloss Up’s Journey

GloRilla isn’t the only one making strides. Gloss Up signed a deal with Quality Control in 2022. Her first project under the label, “Before the Gloss Up,” dropped in January, featuring contributions from GloRilla, Slimeroni, K Carbon, and Aleza. The 13-track effort further showcased the collective’s talent and chemistry.

Conclusion: A Promise of More to Come

The release of “Wrong One” not only underscores the group’s musical talent, but it also serves as a strong statement against toxic masculinity. The track’s success is a clear indication of the collective’s rising popularity and their potential to dominate the music scene in the coming years.

The collaboration between Aleza, GloRilla, Gloss Up, Slimeroni, and K Carbon has been fruitful, leading to several chart-topping hits. With each artist bringing unique skills to the table, fans can expect more captivating music in the future.

In the world of music news, collaborations like these are exciting, promising a blend of styles and perspectives. As music lovers, we can only anticipate what Aleza and her fellow Memphis rappers will bring to the table next.

Such collaborations are not just about producing good music; they are about making a statement, about standing up against societal issues, and about empowering others through their lyrics. As such, we look forward to more powerful and resonating music from this talented group.
