Big Boogie went onstage during the BET Hip Hop Awards at Drai’s Las Vegas and brought out GloRilla to perform their hit single “BOP!” complete with a coordinated dance and backup dancers for one of Tuesday (Oct. 15) night’s most energetic performances.
Host Fat Joe knew what the crowd and viewers at home were in for when he introduced Boogie. “Our next artist is a fan-favorite for two reasons: his music and his energy,” he said. “He had the camera crew turnt up during rehearsals, and now it’s time to see him go crazy.” And Boogie and Glo didn’t disappoint.
“BOP!” — from Big Boogie’s Gangsta Grillz tape REDRUM Wizard with DJ Drama — currently has around 33 million views on YouTube and counting. The tape not only features his CMG labelmate GloRilla, but their label boss Yo Gotti makes an appearance on the song “Whatever,” while Lola Brooke and Bankroll Jizzle lend a hand on songs “Turnt” and “Army,” respectively.
GloRilla is having a monster 2024 so far, as she followed up her critically acclaimed mixtape Ehhthang Ehhthang from earlier this year with her debut album Glorious. We ranked all 15 tracks, which you can check out here.
This year’s BET Hip Hop Awards were a departure from the usual format as the show focused more on performances than the awards themselves. Travis Scott took home the I Am Hip Hop Award, the fourth recipient behind legends Marley Marl, Trina and Nelly.
