GloRilla – “Internet Trolls”

GloRilla shuts down the “Internet Trolls” with her latest single. Speaking to Apple Music, she explains that her music is based off her own experiences — which includes dealing trolls on the internet.”People, they don’t leave their house. They don’t get off their phone. They don’t go outside and see what the real world got to offer,” she says. “This the song, you know what I’m saying, to let people really know it’s a world outside of the internet. You know what I’m saying? Go explore it. So much fun.”
