The touring buddies will have the crowds going nuts all summer with this one.

"Go Meg Go Meg Go Meg." "Get 'em Glo Get 'em Glo Get 'em Glo." That is going to be in our heads all day and the day after that. Those are the lyrics from GloRilla and Megan Thee Stallion's first-ever collaboration "Wanna Be." The track was teased earlier this week and a day or two before the Memphis rapper announced her new mixtape.

Ehhthang Ehhthang is the second project overall from her, and her first LP. GloRilla secretly began the rollout for this offering back in February with the viral hit "Yeah Glo!" It has since taken the internet by storm and it led her to some incredible opportunities like meeting LeBron James. Additionally, Big Glo is going to be heading out on tour this summer with her "Wanna Be" sidekick, Megan Thee Stallion.

Listen To "Wanna Be" By GloRilla & Megan Thee Stallion

The snippet we heard sounded like it had incredible potential to be a party banger for the ages. Part of the reason for that were those chants were mentioned at the beginning, but also the sample. This track pays its respects to Soulja Boy's "Pretty Boy Swag" and it does the original justice. Both rappers deliver cutthroat performances about moving away from toxic men and their flows float over the updated instrumental. You can check out the accompanying rowdy music video above.

Quotable Lyrics:

Ready, whole night I'm comin' like Freddy (Like Freddy)
I’m mother, and you know my trick is your daddy (Your daddy)
Clock that tea, b****, catch it
You look like a discount me on Etsy (Ayy)
I'm the female titan, I'm steppin' on b****es
I'm showin' my t***ies, I tore up the city
