GloRilla Delivers a Double Drop With “MARCH” and “Special” — Plus a Cinematic New Video

GloRilla is kicking off a new chapter with a powerful one-two punch. The Grammy-nominated rapper has released two new singles, “MARCH” and “Special,” and paired the rollout with a striking music video for “MARCH,” directed by Troy Roscoe.

A Tribute to HBCU Energy With “MARCH”

“MARCH” finds GloRilla blending her unmistakable Memphis attitude with the bold, high-energy flair of HBCU marching band culture. The video leans fully into that world, offering a polished nod to the 2002 film Drumline while placing GloRilla at the center of a full-scale band showdown. It’s loud, confident, and built for big speakers.

A More Intimate Tone on “Special”

On the flip side, “Special” pulls things inward. The track explores what it means to feel truly valued, as GloRilla spells out exactly why she deserves the title. It’s a mix of vulnerability and self-assurance that shows another dimension of her artistry, reminding listeners that confidence is strongest when it’s rooted in truth.

Riding High on Career Milestones

These releases extend an already monumental moment for GloRilla. She’s currently up for three Grammy Awards, including Best Rap Album — a category that has recognized only a small number of women throughout its history. Her inclusion marks another major breakthrough in a career defined by boundary-pushing wins.

She also made headlines last week with a standout halftime performance at The Bayou Classic, performing alongside Grambling State University’s renowned marching band. The moment doubled as a preview of the energy fueling her latest work.

One of Hip-Hop’s Leading Voices

GloRilla’s rise shows no signs of slowing. She was recently ranked No. 3 on Billboard’s Hottest Female Rappers of 2025 list, following her No. 1 position the year before. With “MARCH,” “Special,” and a continued run of cultural impact, she remains one of the most compelling figures shaping hip-hop’s future.
