It’s official; Lizzo is outside and just in time for summer with a BANGER of a new mixtape titled ‘My Face Hurts from Smiling.’

Having already teased cuts ‘Just 4 Fun,’ ‘Yittys on Yo T*ttys,’ and ‘Cut Em Off’ on social media over the past weeks, Liz unveiled the tunes’ parent project to digital streamers on Friday (June 27).

Boasting GRAMMY-winning gal pals Doja Cat and SZA as guests, ‘Smiling’ – which sees Liz heavy in her Hip-Hop bag – is set to tide over the fans of the singer-rapper (affectionately called #Lizzbians) ahead of her long-awaited fifth studio album ‘Love in Real Life.’

Until we get official news on that effort, hear the new mixtape inside courtesy of Apple Music and Spotify.

“In countless stories since ancient time / The poets spoke of it in verse and rhyme / A woman’s heart and soul can’t be defined / By words and reason alone,” sings Babs in the opening line of the Walter Afanasieff-produced ballad.

The full listen finally hit digital shelves on Friday (June 27), and – let us tell it – was definitely worth the wait.
