Born Melissa Viviane Jefferson in Detroit, Michigan Lizzo is one of the biggest artists of 2019, so fitting for her to be the second last Sunday Spotlight for 2019.
Her debut record Lizzobangers was released in 2013, however it's third album Cuz I Love You where Lizzo really found her voice. However it was a 2017 Truth Hurts which really got her the attention she deserved. The song was featured on Someone Great, the 2019 Netflix film then it went gang busters!
Then came the reworking of Good as Hell, again originally released in 2016. Now Ariana Grande has jumped on board and released a reworking with Lizzo.
Following Boys getting some serious love on Double J last year, I was excited for Cuz I Love You's release. Juice was an outstanding bop followed by the wonderful return from a Missy Elliot verse on Tempo.
Lizzo is a star, fun, up tempo and damn positive. I love Lizzo and she will be right here in Australia in January. Playing the FOMO festival alongside Brockhampton, Jax Jones, Meduza, Kaytranada and more, info and tickets HERE.
I have no idea who will be the final Sunday Spotlight for 2019, I only know it will return around March, 2020.
