Lizzo announces new album out June 5

“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,” Lizzo says in a statement. “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 [that] because it has become my favorite word when using it on my own terms and because I am 100% that bitch!” she adds, referencing her famous line from “Truth Hurts.”

The album drops June 5 and is available for preorder now. The title track will be released May 1 along with a music video.
