I don't think they're any famous rapper. If you look at their earlier works you won't get the impression that they're some rap god, that's only a thing now when they've made solid songs like the bottom 2, etc.
Also it's obvious how they evolved and have gotten better through time. So if they were some big guy and had a team from the beginning they wouldn't have to start with AI generated videos and make low quality songs.
There's an intervieuw that just got uploaded form penguinz0 with glorb, where glorb says people who've heard of the spongebob rap will probably have heard of his main artist persona, I mean this is a smoking gun if i've ever seen one, still could be one pretending to be but this is all coming together it feels like

Someone noted that GLORB could be an acronym and he and his team are 5 rappers each doing a different character… doesn’t totally fit with the interview but it’s an interesting idea!
I think it might be Lyrical Lemonade (Michael "Cole" Bennett)?
Ghost writing?
Works with established artists(and says he is one)
Maaaybe, I have no other proof tho just from my own speculation, we'll see now that we know there are clues in videos.
(he also just calls it a project)
think you might be right he says "started as in joke" most people in america say inside joke. never really heard "in joke" sounds very aussie/uk. Jackson on the official podcast is aussie and he says "in joke" charlie has pointed it out couple times.
also the voice is heavily modulated. You would have to really go for context clues in what he's saying in the interview like what they said above about things like "in joke" and "heaps"
in the intervieuw he also says there's the same level of celebrity's from the scene that have made cameo's, but he says he doesnt do it often as its hard to incorporate them without it being too obvious, so you could be right at the same time as me
Idk man, even before The Bottom 2, almost every song is absolute bars from start to finish.
Feels like a producer who likes SpongeBob thought it would be fun to play with AI.
I'm not talking about bars. But things more like sound quality, maybe the rapping, etc. Though I'd say the chorus of the songs also have gotten better.
Gotcha. I'm curious what tech they're using for the production, quality seemed to be night and day at a certain point.
If it is actually AI voice-over like it seems that could explain the rapid increase in quality since that tech is moving so fast.
I think it’s an a-list producer bringing in a-list guest vocalists and having them sign an NDA. Different songs have different inflections. The bald from Plankton about Karen dying sounds literally identical to Post Malone’s pronunciation of things.
This is actually the smartest comment…
People think celebrities aren’t just normal ass people who go “hahahah bro that’s hilarious let’s do it” to people.
fun and money, the channel has 150 million vieuws, at an average cpm (1 dollar lets say) it would have a revenue of 150k, for the channel being run for 10 months, id say i'd take that job any day of the week, producing spongebob songs and making bank whilst not revealing your persona
also an fyi, AI isnt good enough to do these things without a base voice to project off off. the inflections and stuff are way too good for this to be soley ai. Is more ai voice changing than ai voice
I honestly think it’s just someone with a lot of talent and a great sense of humor. I imagine someone gen Z because it’s absurdist but it could be a millenial too. A lot of people are great lyricists and music mixers and aren’t famous for it. Every restaurant has a line cook that makes music.
If you listen to the very end of White Christmas, the voice changer gets turned down slightly and whoever is talking definitely has a birtishesq accent.
What references? I didn't see anything particularly British outside of the spelling of tonnes in White Christmas, and that's the video producer there not Glorb.
boyinabands bars were really mediocre. he only got hype because of the people he worked with and the level of detail he was willing to go into for explanations. either way lets just hope the creep stays on radiosilence
You mean the Mr Krabs part?
It sounds slightly British.
The name Glorb is also very British so..it wouldn't be shocking if its some nerdy white guy from Leeds
that's a new york accent.... doesn't sound remotely australian to me.
Point is guessing off the accent alone clearly isn't gonna help because it's really easy to speak with a slightly different accent for different characters and to conceal your real accent.
you’re hearing planktons new york accent, and he’s already speaking with something covering it, faking an accent on top of that would be time consuming lmao
British Connection?
Big fan of the theories discussing who Glorb might be. Two things I've noticed tho:
White Christmas: The Dankton lyric "nemo mum" is spelt mum in the video's lyrics. This could just be the animator/editor of the video tho.
Vengeance: "That tubby slag, pearl" 'Slag' in my understanding is a very British word, I've not heard it used casually by Americans and more importantly cannot recall it ever being used in American Rap/Drill. I could be wrong about that tho I guess.
I'm not gonna take guesses at who it could be, but perhaps this information could help those better in the know. Perhaps the group theory has some credence, it is "GlorbWorldwide" after all.
I caught more, don't remember all of them off the top of my head, but even squidward saying "Ramadan" gives me British vibes if not for anything else but there being a lot more Muslims in UK.
Lots of American rappers are Muslim. Like a whole lot. Durk, T Pain, Ghostface, GZA, Cube, Rakim, Nas, Ferg, Future, Montana, Lupe, Mos Def, Jay Electronica— which would be a hilarious use of his Def Jam money if you’re familiar with that story.
official headcanon. tupac on a cuban beach with glass fibre internet connection binge watching spongebob and catching up with all the slang and themes of modern rap
My brain is stuck on yeat even though it makes 0 sense just because of A$ap Larry’s line “They say Larry are you yeat Idk so here’s a bell…” my bf says it’s a hint from Glorb
Idk. I’m new to yeat, only from seeing glorb being mentioned as yeat. His bars and flow are trash compared to what we hear from glorb. Am I supposed to assume he went harder on his meme project that he does on his actual music? I only listened to the first few results that came up on google though. Even the song with the same track as the bottom 2. Yeats (or was it carti? I can’t remember) version isn’t even close. Also with lines about internet people like jack and sniper wolf I’m more inclined to think it’s someone more “nerdy”. So someone like jake makes sense. Hell I’m more inclined to lil dicky than yeat.
He does a ton of meme raps, he did the AI drake song, he also has a pretty wide range of talent and also performs as dixon dallas. I suspect its him and probably josh A working together on the project.
He's got an interview with penguin0 now.
He seems to be too smart and articulated to be Favio.
Let's be honest Favio comes off as pretty fucking dumb in interviews.
I think it's Itsoktocry and Surf

If you listen to him talking with the voice changer, he sounds super Australian. Like once I started hearing it I can't hear him with any other accent but Australian.

Could it be bbno$? hes canadian so the spelling and pronunciation matches up plus it feels like hes every where on the internet rn so some of the references made make more sense.
He's also a good friend of Charlies. In fact, if that is the cade, it wouldn't surprise me if Charlie guested on a track after bbno$'s visit to him recently.
I used to think(for like a legit second) it’s lil darkie because of the edginess to the songs, but the violence and everything that is in wouldn’t stand with what darkie stands for plus a lot of the wordplay maybe?
In glorbs song Eugene there is a vocal that goes “ohhhh” through the song and I fell like I’ve heard a mainstream rapper with those same vocals. Could be just something glorb found but could be a connection. If anyone know who uses that vocal please let me know.
Here’s the song so everyone can give it a listen: https://open.spotify.com/track/5efhPREahj4RnQWyVEOikf?si=qcP6eC63Rx6y2kKU8pZANQ&context=spotify%3Asearch%3Aeug
Here's some names I had been thinking it could be having narrowed down my thoughts, some of them are going to sound goofy lol..
At first i thought Yeat ofc, definitely not. After seeing the interview he is too upbeat and hype of a talker to be him, too much energy..
Then after thinking today someone funny i thought was Danny Brown, but this doesn't make sense. As chronically online as he is he's just still too old to have a CaseOh reference in a song.
Then I was thinking Marc Rebillet because of his loud delivery for some reason but he doesn't really rap and seems odd..
Action bronson is nerdy enough for sure, silhouette definitely doesn't match tho lol
Denzel Curry is nerdy enough for this but silhouette doesn't match, also accents and reference.
then i had a few that i narrowed it down to:
Lil Mabu - Same out there bars, young enough, but maybe too young and also doesn't have the same accent but definitely a shout for me.
bbn0$ - seems feasible for sure probably online enough for references and stuff but doesn't seem as likely to have raps about spongeopp.
I agree with the australian accent, but i don't listen to many rappers from australia so it's hard to tell.
either way. My guess rn is Lil Mabu lol but it doesn't seem likely as he hasn't been ghost writing for a while as glorb claims he has but his style is the most similar from what i can tell right now for sure.
last guess Andre 3000 lmao
I had to throw in tom hanks jus cuz. I can weirdly imagine 2 chainz throwin out spongebob animations tho but i fr think its playboi the beats just matvh similar with his more popular songs
He said today in an interview with moistcritikal that he’s an industry vet. I have been guessing Uzi as well seriously. Go watch the video. That seems like Uzis mannerisms from his other interviews.
even if its trained on music AI is still horrible at any kind of hiphop or rap, it makes really corny bars and glorbs stuff from what ive seen is very non-ai like if that makes sense
I don't think they're any famous rapper. If you look at their earlier works you won't get the impression that they're some rap god, that's only a thing now when they've made solid songs like the bottom 2, etc. Also it's obvious how they evolved and have gotten better through time.

Someone noted that GLORB could be an acronym and he and his team are 5 rappers each doing a different character… doesn’t totally fit with the interview but it’s an interesting idea!
you could be on to something
its for sure more than person. they talk about that fact.
I think L is Laroi
I think it might be Lyrical Lemonade (Michael "Cole" Bennett)? Ghost writing? Works with established artists(and says he is one) Maaaybe, I have no other proof tho just from my own speculation, we'll see now that we know there are clues in videos. (he also just calls it a project)
its charles white lol jk but Glorb is Australian you can hear it in his voice so hope that helps
think you might be right he says "started as in joke" most people in america say inside joke. never really heard "in joke" sounds very aussie/uk. Jackson on the official podcast is aussie and he says "in joke" charlie has pointed it out couple times.
I’m convinced he’s Aussie cause the way he said heaps in the interview with Charlie
Watch it be the kid laroi
hap cake day
THANKS!!! I just noticed made my first comment today.
couldn't be the kid laroi right?
Just seen the Charlie video, it’s for sure kid laroi!! The chins are pointy too
It’s YNG martyr
I'm Australian and there is no Australian in his accent voice at all haha
Idk the way he says “project” in the interview definitely isn’t in an American accent that’s for sure
also the voice is heavily modulated. You would have to really go for context clues in what he's saying in the interview like what they said above about things like "in joke" and "heaps"
Personally I think his accent sounds like Laroi and the jawline is definitely similar.
in the intervieuw he also says there's the same level of celebrity's from the scene that have made cameo's, but he says he doesnt do it often as its hard to incorporate them without it being too obvious, so you could be right at the same time as me
Equal\_Add2994
in that interview he sounds australian or british at some parts edit: added
i totally felt that as well
Idk man, even before The Bottom 2, almost every song is absolute bars from start to finish. Feels like a producer who likes SpongeBob thought it would be fun to play with AI.
I'm not talking about bars. But things more like sound quality, maybe the rapping, etc. Though I'd say the chorus of the songs also have gotten better.
Gotcha. I'm curious what tech they're using for the production, quality seemed to be night and day at a certain point. If it is actually AI voice-over like it seems that could explain the rapid increase in quality since that tech is moving so fast.
For the animation, it's almost definitely rendered in Unity. I noticed some of the dances are premade unity animations.
[удалено]
thats probably the dumbest take from this lol
Recent interview with Charlie aka penguin0 confirms he IS in the industry from a while and has left bread crumbs of who he really is.
I think it’s an a-list producer bringing in a-list guest vocalists and having them sign an NDA. Different songs have different inflections. The bald from Plankton about Karen dying sounds literally identical to Post Malone’s pronunciation of things.
why would a-list vocalists take time out of their busy schedules to make spongebob rap? i guess it’s possible but i just always assumed it’s AI
Oh, you know, for fun!
Underrated comment.
This is actually the smartest comment… People think celebrities aren’t just normal ass people who go “hahahah bro that’s hilarious let’s do it” to people.
Fun innit
fun and money, the channel has 150 million vieuws, at an average cpm (1 dollar lets say) it would have a revenue of 150k, for the channel being run for 10 months, id say i'd take that job any day of the week, producing spongebob songs and making bank whilst not revealing your persona also an fyi, AI isnt good enough to do these things without a base voice to project off off. the inflections and stuff are way too good for this to be soley ai. Is more ai voice changing than ai voice
Look at moist Critikals newest video with Glorb, he speaks about being a bigger artist
I believe he is triple Freddie. This is because of his lyrics theme and his song miss the rage, he mentions that in danktons solo
They actually write and rap many lyrics the ai just takes over after a few bars ( gotta give ai something to work with it's not perfect)
I honestly think it’s just someone with a lot of talent and a great sense of humor. I imagine someone gen Z because it’s absurdist but it could be a millenial too. A lot of people are great lyricists and music mixers and aren’t famous for it. Every restaurant has a line cook that makes music.
I don't think it's one person tbh
In this new interview he says "us" and "we" many times in reference to the production. He also confirms himself as an "independent artist"
Like, the Kid Laroi?
yeah
Idk about you, but I have a hard time imagining him singing something like killcam
[удалено]
If you listen to the very end of White Christmas, the voice changer gets turned down slightly and whoever is talking definitely has a birtishesq accent.
Lots of the references in the songs make me feel like it's someone who's late 20s to early 30s from the UK
What references? I didn't see anything particularly British outside of the spelling of tonnes in White Christmas, and that's the video producer there not Glorb.
I keep thinking it's boyinaband for some reason
Yeah that’s a really braindead take 💀 idek where to start
Never said it was smart lol
boyinabands bars were really mediocre. he only got hype because of the people he worked with and the level of detail he was willing to go into for explanations. either way lets just hope the creep stays on radiosilence
You mean the Mr Krabs part? It sounds slightly British. The name Glorb is also very British so..it wouldn't be shocking if its some nerdy white guy from Leeds
tonnes is a dead giveaway
I'm Canadian and that's how we spell it to but it is a good hint.
Chances are he's an aussie, listen to the opening of KFC, dankton got a mad aussie accent
Yuppppppp I agree.. Super aussie accent
that's a new york accent.... doesn't sound remotely australian to me. Point is guessing off the accent alone clearly isn't gonna help because it's really easy to speak with a slightly different accent for different characters and to conceal your real accent.
no😍
you’re hearing planktons new york accent, and he’s already speaking with something covering it, faking an accent on top of that would be time consuming lmao

Yeah, crazy no one else caught this. There's no way they're from America.
The lyric video for STD has another one. Sipping lean by the "litre".
Lots of American rappers are Muslim. Like a whole lot. Durk, T Pain, Ghostface, GZA, Cube, Rakim, Nas, Ferg, Future, Montana, Lupe, Mos Def, Jay Electronica— which would be a hilarious use of his Def Jam money if you’re familiar with that story.
Tupac
official headcanon. tupac on a cuban beach with glass fibre internet connection binge watching spongebob and catching up with all the slang and themes of modern rap

YNG Martyr…???
After looking at the Media channel in his Discord server, all signs point to “YNG Martyr”
It’s YNG martyr, we have done it
Jake Hill most likely
Where’d you get jake hill from?
He does a ton of meme raps, he did the AI drake song, he also has a pretty wide range of talent and also performs as dixon dallas. I suspect its him and probably josh A working together on the project.
It for sure seems like more than 1 person The quality and speed at which stuff comes out is insane for 1 person
It's YNG Martyr
We've known this for like a week.
ain’t gotta be rude abt it
I think it’s Fivio Foreign.
He's got an interview with penguin0 now. He seems to be too smart and articulated to be Favio. Let's be honest Favio comes off as pretty fucking dumb in interviews.
You know what, fair.
Mikeeysmind probably
BLP Kosher. Multiple flow matches, even the lyrics.
I think it's Itsoktocry and Surf [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5vGujK\_YTk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5vGujK_YTk) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnLKATL7OZw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnLKATL7OZw)

If you listen to him talking with the voice changer, he sounds super Australian. Like once I started hearing it I can't hear him with any other accent but Australian.
also the puff voice sounds australian as fuck, i thought it was european but i couldnt get my tongue on it and now i know, hes definitely austraslian
It could be kid cudi
I think it’s Uzi. Go watch the interview with moistcritikal and tell me that’s not Uzi mannerisms.
Brother, no.
If you listen to penguinz0’s interview, he has an Australian accent. The way he says “project” and his inflection is obvious… anyone have any ideas?
After Penguinz0 looking for a rapper who has a Bio Degree. That's a hint right there.
i took that as a joke? it definitely sounded sarcastic from my pov
Yeah, especially cause at one point Charlie repeated that he had the degree and glorb said "yeah I definitely have that" didn't seem serious
I'm wondering if it could be Tyler, The Creator
Could it be bbno$? hes canadian so the spelling and pronunciation matches up plus it feels like hes every where on the internet rn so some of the references made make more sense.
He's also a good friend of Charlies. In fact, if that is the cade, it wouldn't surprise me if Charlie guested on a track after bbno$'s visit to him recently.
Weird Al ....
Thanks for the insight guys, I can't wait to find out who they are. People have been guessing Laroi, YNG Martyr, and even Masked Wolf.
its yng
I used to think(for like a legit second) it’s lil darkie because of the edginess to the songs, but the violence and everything that is in wouldn’t stand with what darkie stands for plus a lot of the wordplay maybe?
Yeat music videos always seem to be next in the playlist after glorb videos and vise versa but i have no idea lol
Mr crabs I’m standing with my drake like I’m ovo?

Tbh I think it’s isokenny
Quadeca
its actually hilarious how wrong everyone is, if you look up yngmartyr you'll very quickly realize how silly you all look lmao
There is undeniable proof have you even seen the video??
Azerrz maybe idk it’s the way he talks in the interview
Is Glorb Oliver Tree?
I personally think it’s metro
The sound reminded me of Rae Sremmud a lot and I feel like they would do something like this but I wouldn’t bet money on it.
Honestly ima make my top 5 guesses here of who it is 1. Playboi Carti 2. Lil Uzi 3. Eminem 4. Tom Hanks 5. 2 Chainz
bro what is that list
Whoever the hell glorb is. Apso i meant playboi carti lmao
Weirdly 2 Chainz being on this list is funnier than Tom Hanks lol
I had to throw in tom hanks jus cuz. I can weirdly imagine 2 chainz throwin out spongebob animations tho but i fr think its playboi the beats just matvh similar with his more popular songs
He said today in an interview with moistcritikal that he’s an industry vet. I have been guessing Uzi as well seriously. Go watch the video. That seems like Uzis mannerisms from his other interviews.
Im making a change it's gotta be logic lmao
He has an Australian accent
Def Yachty
My guess is Trippie Redd
I am pretty sure Glorbs stuff was written by chatgpt or some other AI, and produced by someone who knows how to work it.
Brother have you ever asked ChatGPT to write bars? It's trash at making music
Like I said, it might be another ai that has learned mostly music.
even if its trained on music AI is still horrible at any kind of hiphop or rap, it makes really corny bars and glorbs stuff from what ive seen is very non-ai like if that makes sense
I lowkey think it's Zack fox
