Lil Wayne and GloRilla have formed an unlikely friendship after bumping into each other at billionaire Michael Rubin’s White Party in the Hamptons.
In a video posted on Instagram over the weekend, Weezy spoke about his experience at the swanky July 4th bash, which was also attended by the likes of JAY-Z, Beyoncé, Drake, Travis Scott, Kim Kardashian and Tom Brady.

Despite the star-studded guest list, the Young Money legend gave a special shout out to Glo for being “the only person who came up to me and really hollered at me.”
The “F.N.F.” rapper reciprocated the love on Monday (July 8) by reposting a clip of Wayne’s comments on X (formerly Twitter) while writing: “I luv Wayne [three heart emojis] fav rapper of all time.”

GloRilla has long been a fan of Lil Wayne. During an appearance on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast earlier this year, she included the New Orleans native on her Mount Rushmore of rappers.
“I’m only 24 years old, so I can’t say any rappers that were before me because I don’t know their music,” she said, before adding: “So, I’m gonna say Lil Wayne. I think Lil Wayne is one of the best rappers in the world. […] Chief Keef. Drake. Eminem. And JAY-Z.”

The “Tomorrow 2” hitmaker has her own fair share of famous fans outside of Wayne. Earlier this month, none other than Rihanna slid into the starlet’s Instagram DMs with a burning question about her new album.
“You got all summer sis! I know dis wild hypocritical but when the album drop?” the Bajan beauty wrote in her message, acknowledging the long wait for her own next project.
Glo shared the private message in a recap of her visit to the 2024 BET Awards but did not show her response to the “Umbrella” singer.
RiRi also recently flaunted her GloRilla fandom by filming herself dancing to the rapper’s hit single “TGIF.”

In the video, she lip-synced and got down to the catchy hook, “It’s 7 p.m. Friday/ It’s 95 degrees/ I ain’t got no n-gga and no n-gga ain’t got me” as the camera panned to her boyfriend A$AP Rocky.
Confused and amused by his partner’s energy, the Harlem rapper hilariously responded by saying: “Where my drink at, man? I’m too old for this shit.”
