Lizzo has dropped her first new single since 2023 titled “Love in Real Life”, which is taken off her upcoming fifth full-length LP of the same name, dropping this summer.
The singer previously teased her upcoming release, saying that she reached “the end of a very special era. This album was my strut back into society after a hard 2020 and 2021. I wanted to help people turn up the music, turn down the lights and get a feeling they’ll be alright. I wanted to remind people of how they may be broken but still perfect in their own way. Twelve songs, 68 shows, 14 countries, 3 continents and nearly a million voices later we saw our specialness. We got through it together. I’m proud of the accolades, the Grammys, the Emmys, the Platinum plaque…. but I’m most proud of the legacy I’m leaving this world — lyrics that uplift you, music with real instruments, a reminder to dance and that it’s okay to cray… and high vibrations! I thank God every day that this is my job, and I don’t take it lightly.”
Alongside the release, Lizzo announced she’ll preview the upcoming Love in Real Life album at three intimate North American concerts. She’s set to perform at the Wiltern in Los Angeles on March 12, Irving Plaza in New York City on March 16 and First Avenue in Minneapolis on March 18. For info, head to lizzomusic.com.
