We’re now ten days into January 2024, which means many of us have already quit on our new year’s resolutions. Others still seem to be holding strong, but maybe that resilience ain’t all it’s cracked up to be.
It seems that more than one rap star decided to take a vow of abstinence — at least, temporarily. And while 50 Cent says his resolution to do so is helping him avoid distractions, GloRilla is apparently starting to regret hers.

Prayers up for Big Glo, and here’s hoping her batteries hold out and long as she does.
