Lizzo releases new rock’n’roll song and announces upcoming live shows
Lizzo has made a stunning return with a brand new rock’n’roll track. The songstress recently unveiled her first single in two years titled ‘Love In Real Life’. The release comes on the heels of facing a lawsuit from her dancers over allegations of sexual and racial harassment.
In addition to her new single, Lizzo has also shared a spoken word piece named ‘Everything Was So Much Simpler’. In one segment, she expresses a desire for a return to simplicity and genuine connections, stating, “Everything was so much simpler, and that’s exactly what I need. No views. No likes. Real love… and real life.” This introspective piece hints at a deeper dive into personal experiences and emotions in her upcoming music.
The artist has big plans for the near future. Not only has she commenced her new era with the release of ‘Love In Real Life’, but she has also announced a series of three “super intimate” concerts at renowned venues in Los Angeles, New York, and Minneapolis. These exclusive shows are set to take place in March at The Wiltern, Irving Plaza, and First Avenue, respectively. This intimate setting promises fans a unique and up-close experience to witness Lizzo’s powerhouse performances.
Teasing her much-anticipated return on a recent Twitch stream, Lizzo shared her excitement, saying, “I want to introduce to you guys, the newest piece of content from the new era. I’ve been working on new music for the last two years. I took my time and I did it right. The new era has begun today, right now, with you, my chat.” This statement builds anticipation for what fans can expect from Lizzo’s upcoming musical endeavors.
In a candid interview on the ‘Baby, This is Keke Palmer’ podcast, Lizzo addressed the challenging experiences she faced in 2023. Despite achieving major career milestones, including winning Record of the Year at the Grammys for ‘About Damn Time’ and embarking on her first arena tour, the artist confronted unexpected legal issues. Three former dancers, Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams, and Noelle Rodriguez, filed a lawsuit against Lizzo and her touring company, alleging various misconduct.
While Lizzo dismissed most of the accusations as baseless and irrelevant, she acknowledged the impact of the situation on her personal growth. Asserting her innocence, Lizzo emphasized, “But let’s be clear, I did nothing wrong. So I have no regrets, but I do have now this learned experience that is preparing me for the boss that I’m becoming.” This statement reflects the artist’s resilience and determination to navigate challenges and emerge stronger.
Despite the setbacks, Lizzo remains committed to her artistry. She revealed that she has completed work on a new album, indicating a creative resurgence and promising new music in the near future. With recent songs like ‘Pink’ for the ‘Barbie’ film and her studio album ‘Special’ in 2022, Lizzo continues to captivate audiences with her powerful vocals and impactful lyrics. As she embarks on this new chapter in her career, fans eagerly await what surprises and musical gems she has in store.
