^ with Latto
Lizzo released her fourth studio album, Special, earlier in July this year. The singer previously stated that she had been working on the album for three years.
In an interview with Zane Lowe, the Truth Hurts artist spoke about the album, noting,
“I think that the music really is going to speak for itself. I’m writing songs about love from every direction, and I hope that I can turn a little bit of the fear that’s been running rampant in this world, energetically into love.”
She further added:
“I had a lot of fear, and I had to do the work on myself, and this music is some of that work in turning that fear into love. I hope that when people listen to this album, it makes their day just a little bit better, a little bit more filled with love.”
The album was previewed by the single, About Damn Time, which became viral due to its extensive usage in videos on Instagram and TikTok. It features a total of twelve tracks, including The Sign and Grrrls. Lizzo, a three-time Grammy award winner, faced criticism for using an ableist slur in her song, Grrrls. The artist re-recorded the song after being called out on the internet. At the time, she clarified, noting that she had never heard the word used as a slur against disabled people.
