Released in July this year 'Special' feature 12 breakout tracks, including single 'About Damn Time' which reached number one on the Billboard Top 100 with its distinct 'feel good' pop tune. Other tracks featured on the album are 'The Sign', 'Grrrls' and the R&B inspired 'Break Up Twice'.
A three-time Grammy-winning singer, songwriter, rapper, actress, and so much more, Lizzo has shifted the sound, soul, and spirit of popular music and culture. Her 2019, now-classic, RIAA Platinum-certified debut album, CUZ I LOVE YOU , bowed at No.4 on the Billboard 200, fuelled in part by history-making hits such as the Platinum-certified 'Tempo (Feat. Missy Elliott)', the double Platinum 'Juice', the quadruple Platinum 'Good As Hell' and the seven-times Platinum 'Truth Hurts'.
The latter ascended to No.1 on Billboard ’s Hot 100, affirming Lizzo as only the third female rapper to top the chart without a featured artist, as well as the first black solo female R&B singer to claim the top spot since 2012. 'Truth Hurts' dominated the chart for seven weeks, further making history as the longest running No.1 by a solo female rap artist ever.
Named by Rolling Stone as one of the 500 Greatest Songs Of All Time, 'Truth Hurts' went on to earn a 2020 Grammy for Best Pop Solo Performance, with CUZ I LOVE YOU (DELUXE) receiving that year’s Grammy for Best Urban Contemporary Album and 'Jerome' earning Best Traditional R&B Performance.
Expanding her imprint and influence across media, Lizzo lent her voice to the 2019 animated film, UglyDolls , and joined Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu, Julia Stiles, Keke Palmer, Lili Reinhart, and Cardi B in the all-star cast of that same year’s critically acclaimed Hustlers .
Lizzo maintained this unstoppable momentum on 2021’s RIAA gold-certified 'Rumors (Feat. Cardi B)' with her second full-length offering Special which came out in July this year.
