Lizzo has long kept it candid when it comes to her journey in music.
And, with her new album ‘Special’ officially announced, the stage blazer is being all sorts of frank about its creation process.
The LP’s campaign launched with last summer’s ‘Rumors’ featuring Cardi B and received a fresh bolt of lightning courtesy of the star’s new single ‘About Damn Time.’
Hot on the promotional trail for both the track and its housing LP, Lizzo revealed that the latter was switched up very recently.

Speaking with Entertainment Tonight Canada, the Houston native said:
“Ok, here’s the thing. I changed the album last minute. I took off a lot of songs that didn’t match this new vibe that I’m in. Especially after writing ‘About Damn Time.’ I wrote [the song] two months ago and I think I had an epiphany that like: ‘oh, I only want songs that on a frequency of love.’ Only about love. And also bangers. I wanted to make Lizzo bangers again. So, even if it’s a ballad…it bangs! Every song is memorable and delicious and you’re gonna want to hear it again and again and again.”
Interesting!
‘Special’ will be released on July 15 via Atlantic Records.
