A self-described "showgirl at its finest," Lizzo initially thought she'd be a classical flautist. Though rap and pop won out, she still brings the flute into her music. Originally broadcast in 2019.
Lizzo is rapper and singer and her new album is her star-making break-thru. She also plays flute, is a self-proclaimed big girl, a feminist, and a lot of fun to talk to.
