Taylor Swift is about to start another leg of her Eras Tour, and she chose a surprising song to mark its return: GloRilla and Sexyy Red‘s duet “Whatchu Kno About Me.”
The pop icon shared an Instagram video on Friday (October 18) that showed her and her cat Olivia Benson inside an empty Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, where she is set to kick off the run of dates with three consecutive shows.

To provide the soundtrack to her time in Miami, Swift chose “Whatchu Kno About Me,” the two rappers’ modern spin on Boosie Badazz and Webbie’s 2007 classic “Wipe Me Down.”

GloRilla could use major good news, since it appears she is losing big in her release day battle with Rod Wave.
According to Hits Daily Double, Rod Wave’s Last Lap is projected to move 130,000 sales equivalent units in its first week, while Glo’s Glorious is expected to do less than half of that number, with 60,000.

GloRilla and Rod Wave’s release date issues began on September 26 when Rod announced on Instagram that Last Lap would arrive on October 11, which was the same day that Glo’s debut LP Glorious was scheduled to land on streaming services.
The Memphis rapper was none too pleased about the clash and commented on his post: “WHY DF WOULD YOU DROP ON MY DAY I’M FINNA TWEAK OUT.”

Rod then appeared to confirm that he was not moving his release date, writing on his Instagram Stories: “La twin drop same night” alongside a photo of him and Glo in the studio together.
GloRilla went all-out to promote her project, even printing the cover on her latest hair style.
In a carousel post she shared to her Instagram on Sunday (October 13), Big Glo showed off her latest ‘do – and fans were feeling it.
“Your hair is the first I ever seen tell ‘em don’t be trynna copy you,” one person wrote.
