Glamorest Life is the third studio album by American rapper Trina. It was released on October 4, 2005, through Slip-N-Slide/Atlantic Records. Recording sessions took place at Studio Center, The Record Room and Circle House Studios in Miami. Production was handled by Bigg D, Cool & Dre, Jim Jonsin, Mannie Fresh, Money Mark Diggla, Signature, Briss, Jazze Pha, KLC, Needlz and Nick "Fury" Loftin. It features guest appearances from Dre, CO, Duece Poppito, Jazze Pha, Kelly Rowland, Lil Scrappy, Lil Wayne, Mannie Fresh, Money Mark Diggla, Plies, Rick Ross, Snoop Dogg, T.I., Trey Songz and Trick Daddy.

In the United States, the album debuted at number 11 on the Billboard 200 and number 2 on both the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and the Top Rap Albums charts, with 77,000 units sold in its first week.[1] By 2007, the album sold 398,000 copies.[2]

The album was supported with three singles: "Don't Trip", "Here We Go" and "Da Club". Its lead single, "Don't Trip", didn't find much success, only peaking at number 74 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The second single off of the album, "Here We Go", reached number 17 in Finland, New Zealand and the US, number 15 in the UK and number 29 in the Netherlands, and was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America for selling over 500,000 units in the United States alone, becoming Trina's first highly successful single.

The album marks Trina's final album for Atlantic Records. In 2007, Trina signed to EMI in conjuction with Slip-n-Slide Records.[3]

RapReviews7.5/10[7]

Steve 'Flash' Juon of RapReviews praised the album, stating "the guest appearances don't detract from her album, they just add on to her already strong pimp game".[7] Melanie Cornish of HipHopDX concluded: "all in all Trina didn't strike out with her third album, it was a certified hit and will keep her fan base watching for the next time she comes to the plate".[5] AllMusic's Andy Kellman found Trina's "righteous raunchiness is more than a little exhausted on Glamorest Life", adding that she sounds "distanced and not nearly as energised as she was on 2002's Diamond Princess".[4] Jim Durig of IGN wrote that the album "doesn't expand on the glimmers of potential Trina showed in her earlier work, instead moving away from that strong, uninhibited rawness to fully pander to an adolescent crowd".[6]
