At the end of the day, these two artists have created success by giving off an authentic image, right?
But Sexy Red versus Glorilla is a very interesting topic because in general, I really can't tell who's bigger than who.
And the only reason I'm comparing these two specific artists is because if you don't know,
Glorilla is signed to CMG slash Interscope records, which CMG is owned by Yogadi, but Anoscope is a major label in itself, right?
Then we get to sexy red.
She has a single out titled, I Love Freaks.
That's literally what it's called.
I catch you not.
It's what it's called.
And she's under new 11 records, which seems to be independent.
I don't know who new 11 records is.
Let me see.
New 11 records.
I don't even know who that is.
Like it seems like it's an independent.
New 11 records.
That's the first time I've ever seen that.
But basically, the reason why I want to compare these two artists
is because I feel like there's a significant push
in showcasing sexy red,
but there's not as much highlight on Glorilla nowadays.
I don't know if it's a changing of the guards
or if somebody's powerful is stepping in saying that,
were co-signing this artist
compared to co-signing another artist
because if you don't know
Lerilla basically put out an album, right?
She put out an album and it was titled
Anyways Life's Great
and this album performed so horribly
that they put this under EP
Now I want you all to look up
the difference, let's do it together
the difference between
an EP and album
right
Because anyways, Life is Great by Gloverillah is 38 minutes and 9 seconds.
And the reason why I'm pointing out the runtime between that album is because the RIAA sets a criteria for music.
And usually EPs are typically easier to get certifications as far as gold, platinum, and diamond when it's considered an EP versus when it's considered an actual album.
Like you need like 500,000 to be certified gold for an hour.
album but then for EP you need like 50,000 so it's like it's like a little different right and the
reason is because EP is are typically only eligible for gold certification if they are shorter
well because they are shorter than albums so EP or albums consistently have 10 or more tracks
why EP usually has four to six tracks now I want y'all to go to glowrilla's project which is
anyways life is great and count the number of tracks
and you can already tell it's more to six right but the biggest thing i want to get to uh with that
is that there's also the runtime and i'm getting i'm getting to a point with this this is why i'm bringing
up gloverilla first but the certification for for ep as far as runtime there are typically under
30 minutes in length while albums are typically over 30 minutes in length so i want you to go to
let's go back again to glowrillas anyways life is great
38 minutes. So technically it's an album if you look at the certification from
R IAA. But of course nowadays the famous phrase is don't hate the player hate the game
somehow her team was able to change it from an album to an EP because when she first put this out
it was definitely being promoted as an album but when reports like this started come out which if you
turn with me to analytic dreams on my Spotify channel you can see the video elements along with the
audio basically glorilla ended up selling 28,000 first week which is not something to to scoff at
because that's a pretty nice number right but when considering her being on the rise and can
in people in her her peer group like ice spice and other people not really selling way more than her
as far as 28,000 it makes me wonder why nowadays they're trying to hide this quote unquote flop which
I don't think it's a flop.
I think they're just trying,
them trying to hide it,
changing it from album to EP,
talking about,
um,
like it's not even,
if you go to a DSP is literally just under singles.
Like,
it's not album,
like they're trying to act like she doesn't have an album out.
So it makes it even worse that they're hiding it on these,
well,
specifically Spotify to hide.
I don't know about Apple,
but specifically Spotify,
they're trying to hide it.
And they're coming out talking about how,
um,
now there's so much publicity on sexy red
as she's made,
her first ever appearance on US Spotify charts at number 184.
If that's news, then we really have to start having a hard look at some of these other
musicians that people are saying, quote, unquote, is falling off.
If this is what a rising star looks like, then I feel like Corla Ray is a superstar
if we're going by these numbers.
Because the reason why I want to compare Coral Ray, or no, Glorilla to Sexy Red is because
people act like both of these artists can't flourish in their own right like they have to be um like one
has to be trumping the other so i've seen a really important push for sexy red's music and on the other hand
people have been acting like glowrilla has been falling off so i just wanted to point that out which is
why i'm gonna put glowrilla versus sexy red to have that salacious title but at the end of the day
i want both of these artists to succeed but we have to point out how
not even this so those two things that was showing like if you don't think those correlate
sexy red has a well whiskey is um currently running not charts but it's is charting well for her
but if you look at the numbers glorilla who has 3.7 monthly listeners and now somehow sexy
red has 5.7 million monthly listeners and you look at her biggest track with ski ye
is that 17 million streams currently and you look at glorilla with tomorrow two with carty b that's
119 million streams obviously you can go down the plethora of tracks between the two but there's not
a significant difference between the two streams wise i feel like they're on the same level but a lot
of people acting like glowrilla is falling off and sexy red is flourishing so the way that um
i'm structuring it for you is just so you know that these two particular artists
are around the same level,
but the perception is what happens
to put these artists
at two different pedestals.
They put sexy red as one of the hottest artists
in the game while people are saying
Gloverill is falling off.
So that's another thing I wanted to point out.
Also, I found out what sexy red was under.
She is under an independent record label
from New York City,
and it was founded by music industry,
veteran Michael God Goldwater
Goldweiser I don't know
I said it
And you know
To discover developed talent
You know the whole nine yards
But basically
It's basically an independent label
So
Glorillas on the endoscope
Sexy Red is under new 11 records
But at the end of the day
The perception
Even though they're performing similarly
Similarly
I can't say it
Even though they're performing
Around the same level
everybody's like one is falling off and one isn't so I just wanted to point out that fact so y'all aren't like
um tricked into believing that glowrilla's falling off i don't think she's falling off at all
if she's falling off that a bunch of a lot of these other artists or musicians is actually falling off
because well except for ice spice ice spice is actually selling out here with like legit eps with like
four or five tracks so um yeah i don't know why um glowrilla's label is is feeding into the hype
for falling off by changing her album into an EP and things of that nature because even though sexy red is on the rise,
I do believe that Glorillic can still catch one and get right back into that discussion to being one of the highest artists out.
But yeah, that's why I really wanted to touch on.
I think a lot of people are underestimating the power of social media when it comes to publicizing these streams.
Like 184, obviously that's an accomplishment, right?
but people are acting like this track is like top 10 on billboard charts like people are acting like
oh this is like running a running a country when it honestly isn't like you know it's one of those
tracks that's doing well obviously compared to most artists but for it to be promoted like it's just
a top five hit i think it's a little um a burner boy esk and why i say that is because people put
burn a boy on the level of perception that when his album sales for the United States came out
to be 21,000 first week, people are now looking at him as like, are you flopping?
Like, I thought you're supposed to be this big artist from overseas and you're only selling
21,000 when they don't know how the music industry works and how the sales co-aligned with
some of the major labels agenda.
So I think sexy red is obviously performing well, but so is Glowilla.
and the perceptions
is just something I wanted to
touch on in this subject
to let people know
that it's a lot more going on
it's a lot that's beneath the surface
that a lot of fans don't know
so I just want to point that out
and hopefully I did a good job
on laying out why certain perceptions
are now starting to
gain more noise in general
so anyways
click my link to your in my bio
let me know in one of my social medias
what do you think about the whole
Glorilla versus Sexy Red and the perception altered by media and what is your feeling on how
media goes about promoting and championing other artists and downgrading certain and
downgrading other artists when they're both performing around the same level
