Lizzo has teased the beginning of a new musical era, sharing a preview clip during a Twitch livestream on 14th February.
The preview features the artist in an emotional scene, showing her crying before transitioning to laughter, concluding with a direct look into the camera. The clip ends with ’28th February’ appearing on screen.
During the livestream, Lizzo discussed her recent work, saying, “I want to introduce to you guys, the newest piece of content from the new era. I have been working on new music for last two years. I took my time and I did it right.” She added, “The new era begins today. I truly am coming to gag throats.”
The announcement follows Lizzo’s reflection on her previous album era, ‘Special’. Taking to Instagram, she shared, “It’s the end of a very Special era. This album was my strut back into society after a hard 2020 & 2021. I wanted to help people turn up the music, turn down the lights and get a feeling they’ll be alright. I wanted to remind people of how they may be broken but still perfect in their own way. 12 songs, 68 shows, 14 countries, 3 continents and nearly a million voices later we saw our specialness. We got through it together. I’m proud of the accolades, the Grammys the Emmys the Platinum plaque… but I’m most proud of the Legacy I’m leaving this world – lyrics that uplift you, music w real instruments, a reminder to dance and that it’s okay to cry… and high vibrations! I thank God every day that this is my job, and I don’t take it lightly.”
The artist marked the end of the ‘Special’ era by spray painting “Bye Bitch” over the album’s artwork in a separate social media post.
