‘Yeah Glo!': GloRilla brings ‘Glorious' tour to Boston
Before GloRilla took the stage, opener Queen Key kicked the night off with a bang, performing her 2018 track 'My Way,' along with a short set of her hits. The evening also featured an appearance by Florida rapper Real Boston Richey, who glimmered in a bejeweled, all-black outfit while performing songs like his crowd-pleaser 'Help Me.' DJ Flexx, meanwhile, kept the party going in-between sets, mixing old-school rap classics and new-school club bangers, with a few pop songs like the Miley Cyrus anthem 'Party in the U.S.A.' sprinkled in.

GloRilla emerged onstage at around 9:40 p.m. in a lacy black body suit and fur boots to match, kicking off the main performance with her song 'Tomorrow 2,' a remix that features verses from Cardi B. Next up was the track 'HOLLON' off of her debut album, followed by the song 'Wanna Be,' which features quick-witted verses by both the Memphis rapper and Megan Thee Stallion whose presence could be felt from afar in Boston on Thursday night, as GloRilla and the crowd shouted 'Go Meg!' during the show.

The hour-long set also featured sultry male dancers gyrating and ripping off their clothes at one point, and fans were treated to a bit of a light show too, as a bright pink glow lit up the stage during her rendition of 'Pony.' Later in the night, things got a little interactive for one lucky audience member, who was brought onstage and sat before Big Glo, who gave him a close-up performance during one of her more risqué songs.
The night came to a close with her fan-favorite track 'Yeah Glo!', to the delight of the crowd. On her way out, the Memphis rapper gave a shoutout to the Boston audience, telling them to 'make some noise for yourselves,' and thanked everyone 'for being such a wonderful, beautiful, good energy crowd.'
