Hurricane G was an American rapper of Puerto Rican descent.

Hurricane G, born Gloria Rodríguez, became popular in the mid-1990s following her appearance on Redman’s 1992 hit “Tonight’s da Night.”

She followed with another Redman song, “Dare Iz a Darkside,” in 1994 while collaborating with Xzibit on the track “At the Speed of Life” before releasing her debut album, All Woman, in 1997.

Her fame imploded following her 1997 single release “Somebody Else,” which charted at #10 by Billboard Magazine on Hot Rap Singles, and at #54 on their Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart.

Hurricane G was also the Hit Squad’s first female member, and made guest appearances on albums by Keith Murray, Redman, Xzibit, Delinquent Habits, Funkdoobiest, the Cocoa Brovaz, and others.

She also appeared on Puff Daddy’s track “P.E. 2000”.

She has two albums;

• All Woman (1997)
• Mami & Papi with Thirstin Howl III (2013)

Sadly, Hurricane G passed away on Sunday, Nov 6, 2022 at age 52.

Though a cause of death was not disclosed, her daughter Lexus revealed in May that her mother had lung cancer.

In a social media post, Lexus wrote;

“My mom has stage 4 lung cancer.

“I dont know how many of you understand what that means but even after 30 years of life Im still trying to process it myself.

“I have never cried so much in my life I have never felt so disconnected from reality in my life.
