Biography

G.R.L. (an initialism for Girls Rock Life) was an American girl group, originally consisting of members Simone Battle, Lauren Bennett, Emmalyn Estrada, Natasha Slayton and Paula van Oppen. G.R.L. made their debut appearance on the Smurfs 2 soundtrack with "Vacation" in July 2013. The following year, the group appeared on Pitbull's international hit single "Wild Wild Love". The song peaked in the top 30 in the United States, the top 10 in the United Kingdom, and was certified Platinum by Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). G.R.L.'s breakthrough single "Ugly Heart" peaked in the top 5 in both Australia and New Zealand, the top 20 in the United Kingdom, and was certified 4× Platinum by Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). After Battle's suicide in September 2014, the group released a song titled "Lighthouse" in her honor before a one-year hiatus. The group reformed as a trio in 2016, consisting of Bennett, Slayton, and Jazzy Mejia, before the four surviving original members briefly reunited in 2020.
