Social Media Reacts To GloRilla & Fivio Foreign's New Single "Cha Cha Cha"
Yesterday (Sept. 29), GloRilla and Fivio Foreign released their new Drill-infused single “Cha Cha Cha.” The modern rendition of the famous “Cha Cha Slide” track has prompted many fans on social media to react.
The upbeat single was released on CMG’s new compilation album, Gangsta Art 2. The 18-track LP boasts features from Moneybagg Yo, 42 Dugg, Mozzy, Yo Gotti, Sexyy Red, Mike Will Made-It, and many more. Although the project is new, “Cha Cha Cha” has garnered the most attention from fans on social media.
One Twitter user stated, “GloRilla, we will remember your run from May 2022 through September 2022, but it’s over.” This prompted the Memphis-bred emcee to respond in a since-deleted post, saying, “B**ch, I’ll never go nowhere, and I’ll bet every dollar to yo name, ho.” Another person tweeted, “Anybody singing that GloRilla song can stay away from me.” GloRilla quoted the post and said, “I am not yo sustaaaaaaaa.”

Yesterday, popular Twitch personality and influencer Kai Cenat played the song on his stream. After hearing a few lines from the video, he put his head down in dismay and said, “No, no, no, no. Come on, Glo. I love Glo, bro, and I love Glo, but no.”
Not all reactions to the modern-day “Cha Cha Slide” were negative. One tweeter posted, “GloRilla DID HER THING on ‘Cha Cha Cha.'” Another user mentioned, “This ‘Cha Cha Cha’ song funny af, but it’s lit lol.” GloRilla quoted her tweet: “It’s [gonna] grow on y’all. I love it.”
