GloRilla recently gave fans an inside look at how her viral “SHYNE” chorus with Travis Scott was created, sharing a candid studio clip that captured her laughing at her own delivery. While laying down the line, “Don’t ask me ’bout no h** I used to fk with, I ain’t got nothin’ to say / My only regret is bein’ too young to fk Matthew McConaughey,” she immediately broke into laughter before performing the now-infamous “wobbly, wiggly, wobbly, wiggly” hook.
The chorus itself is a layered homage: not only does the track’s title and refrain reference Shyne’s 2000 single “Bad Boyz,” but it also draws on Barrington Levy’s reggae staple “Here I Come.” While some on social media were quick to poke fun at the quirky hook, others praised GloRilla for her carefree attitude and infectious energy. One fan joked, “‘SHYNE’ is fire, but that wiggly wobbly s**t caught me off guard,” while another commented, “As a man with Jamaican lineage, I cannot forgive Travis for what he did on ‘SHYNE’”.
Amidst the online debates, GloRilla’s performance stood out on JACKBOYS 2. She delivered one of the project’s strongest verses and was notably the only female rapper on the lineup, joining big names like Kodak Black, 21 Savage, Playboi Carti, Future, and Tyla. “SHYNE” also extends GloRilla’s impressive run of collaborations this year, adding to tracks like Lil Baby’s “Redbone,” Teddy Swims’s “She Got It,” and a string of features spanning Anycia, Queen Key, and Jorjiana, among others.
Despite mixed reactions, GloRilla remains in on the joke, embracing the chorus’s viral momentum with the trademark confidence and humor that’s fueled her rapid ascension in hip-hop.
