GloRilla Arrested on Felony Drug Charges in Georgia

Written by on July 24, 2025

Here’s What We Know 

Memphis rapper GloRilla, known for her breakout hits “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” and “Tomorrow 2” featuring Cardi B, is once again facing legal trouble in the state of Georgia. The artist, whose real name is Gloria Woods, was arrested on Tuesdayin Forsyth County on two felony drug charges, according to public jail records first reported by TMZ.

Charges and Arrest Details

Court documents show Woods was charged with:

  • Possession of a Schedule I or II controlled substance

  • Possession of over one ounce of marijuana

Both are felony offenses under Georgia law, which is known for some of the toughest drug legislation in the country. The specific type of controlled substance involved has not yet been disclosed.

As of now, no official police report or statement has been released regarding the events leading to the arrest. However, jail records confirm that GloRilla was released the same day after posting a $22,000 bond.

Recurring Legal Issues

This is not GloRilla’s first encounter with Georgia authorities. Back in April 2024, she was arrested in Gwinnett Countyon suspicion of DUI. According to bodycam footage and police statements reported at the time, she was pulled over after allegedly making an illegal U-turn through a red light. Officers reportedly smelled alcohol and marijuana and noted signs of impairment during a field sobriety test.

Despite the headline-grabbing incident, GloRilla’s music career stayed on track—with high-profile collaborations, festival appearances, and a loyal fanbase.

The Rise—and Rocky Ride—of a Southern Star

GloRilla became one of the most prominent new voices in hip-hop after exploding onto the scene in 2022. Her raw voice, gritty Southern style, and unapologetic lyrics earned her spots on major charts, critical acclaim for her debut EP “Anyways, Life’s Great…”, and a well-deserved spot on the XXL Freshman Class list.

However, 2024 and 2025 have seen more personal headlines than musical ones. Fans have noted a slowdown in releases and fewer public appearances, with speculation growing about how these recent legal battles might affect her rumored sophomore album rollout.

As of this post, GloRilla has not made a public statement regarding her most recent arrest, and her reps have not responded to requests for comment.
