Lizzo passionately expressed, “We need self-love and self-love anthems more than anybody.” Her music aims to resonate with Black women who, like her, have faced underappreciation, bullying, and societal pressures. She finds it perplexing when critics question her commitment to creating music from a Black perspective, considering it an inherent aspect of her identity as a Black artist.

Touching on her recent controversy involving Founding Father James Madison’s 200-year-old crystal flute, Lizzo believes there is still significant progress needed for Black women in America. She candidly shared her feelings of hopelessness, stating that throughout history, Black women have not been treated fairly or with respect. Lizzo sees hope emerging when those with privilege take accountability, emphasizing the need for progress, particularly for individuals like herself, a fat Black woman.

Lizzo’s commitment to social issues is evident through her activism. She donated $500,000 to Planned Parenthood and the National Network of Abortion Funds following the overturn of Roe v. Wade in June. Notably, her tour promoter, Live Nation, matched this donation with an additional $500,000. Lizzo attributes the significant role of race in the ruling, pointing to what she sees as a pervasive issue of white male supremacy in the country, with complicity from various quarters, including white women.

In conclusion, Lizzo’s journey transcends music, delving into the complexities of race, identity, and activism. Her unapologetic stance and commitment to her roots reinforce her message of self-love, making her a powerful voice in today’s diverse and evolving cultural landscape.
