Lizzo is is back and blazing into her boldest era yet.

The GRAMMY and Emmy-winning superstar has announced her third studio album, ‘B*tch.’

Full story below…

Moments ago, the Houston native confirmed that the LP will land on June 5.

But, that’s not all.

The set’s title track, ‘Bitch,’ arrives this Friday (May 1) alongside its official music video and sees the chart-topper interpolate Meredith Brooks’ iconic anthem of the same name.

Speaking on the inspiration behind the LP’s unapologetic title, the hitmaker shared:

“Reclaiming the word Bitch is power – it’s taking a label once used to diminish women and turning it into a declaration of confidence, and unapologetic self-love. So many incredible women in music have used the word for positivity like Meredith Brooks and Missy Elliott. It was only fitting to name my album Bitch because it has become my favorite word when using it on my own terms and because I am 100% that bitch!”

The announcement follows last month’s release of ‘Don’t Make Me Love U,’ the first taste of the forthcoming project and the launchpad for her new musical chapter.

The news also arrives after a sold-out 12-show run at the Blue Note Jazz Club in Los Angeles and New York, as well as a high-octane performance at the Houston Rodeo earlier this month in front of more than 70,000 fans.

Beyond music, the multi-hyphenate is gearing up to release her first children’s book, ‘Lil Lizzo Meets Sasha B. Flootin’ in September and is set to star as trailblazer Sister Rosetta Tharpe in Amazon MGM Studios’ upcoming film ‘Rosetta.’

Lizzo’s last album, ‘Special,’ arrived in 2022 and is home to the #1 hit ‘About Damn Time.’ In the time since, she also dropped a mixtape, ‘My Face Hurts from Smiling.’

Suffice it to say, booked and busy!
