Lizzo Reclaims 'Bitch' for Bold New Album
27 Apr
Summary
- Lizzo's new album, 'Bitch,' is set for release on June 5.
- The album reclaims the word 'Bitch' as a declaration of confidence.
- This project follows her 2025 rap mixtape, 'My Face Hurts From Smiling'.

Lizzo's new album, 'Bitch,' is scheduled for release on June 5, featuring 12 tracks including the disco-inspired "Don't Make Me Love U." The title track will be available on May 1.
Reclaiming the word "Bitch," Lizzo states it signifies power and unapologetic self-love, a personal favorite word used on her own terms. This album marks her first since 2022's 'Special.'
Originally, Lizzo announced 'Love in Real Life' for February 2025, but scrapped it after singles underperformed. A pivotal meeting with her label led to a creative overhaul, resulting in the fiery 2025 rap mixtape 'My Face Hurts From Smiling.'
Described as a blend of pop, rock, and rap, 'Bitch' delves into moodier, darker themes, touching upon challenging periods. These likely reference the lawsuits faced in 2023 from former dancers and a separate suit filed by a former tour employee.
In other news, Lizzo is set to star as Sister Rosetta Tharpe in the upcoming film 'Rosetta.'
