Lizzo grabs music icon Missy Elliott for latest song Tempo. This track features on Lizzo’s upcoming album Cuz I Love You.
Lizzo who holds Missy Elliott to idol status, share with Travis Mills during a Beats 1 interview she reached out to Missy, hoping to get blessed with a verse. The two women celebrate the thick girls, staying true to Lizzo’s body-positive messages. Tempo begins with Lizzo exclaiming “I been waiting for this one!”
Missy Elliott and Lizzo definitely gave the girls something to twerk to. Both artists use their verses to uplift anyone, especially the thick girls.
“Slow songs, they for skinny hoes. Can’t move all of this here to one of those. I’m a thick bitch I need tempo” repeats Lizzo on the hypnotic hook. Lizzo is not one to shy away from showing her body and embracing her size and skin tone. Lizzo’s recent Playboy spread highlights her ability to exist freely, both physically and artistically.
