Glockianna
Glockianna may be fifteen years old but there is nothing immature about her lyrical force. As a viral sensation with her explosive freestyles she gained the interest of The King of Crunk, Duke Deuce who signed the Artist to his Triple M label mid 2022. If 'Glockii” as called by her core fanbase isn’t chewing up rhymes, she can be found acing AP exams or spiking a volleyball on her travel team. Her vibrant red hair and efficacious personality is delightful but her lyrics are dark and gritty such as legendary fellow Memphians, Gangsta Boo and LaChat. The self-proclaimed Queen of Crunk is tearing up the scene with singles like Stomp On Em (2021), or R.E.S.P.E.C.T, featured on Duke Deuce’s album Memphis Massacre III (2022). However, her moment was when she rose to the occasion solo on Riverside where she shook the world single handedly with her effortless change of flows and cadences (Memphis Massacre III 2022) that graced the Under Armour All American uniform announcement (2023) . Glockianna lit the Rolling Loud Miami stage up and became the youngest to perform in that setting (2022). Pitchfork explains Glockianna as having the hunger of a newcomer but the confidence of a veteran.
