She makes music for whites and them new age twitter feminist blacks. Never heard any black person I know mention her.

She probably really talented though. Fat people don’t get famous without a lot of talent
Bullshyt. Her audience has plenty of black folks in it and this song was on heavy rotation on black radio.

I've seen this take and I'm not sure why Lizzo gets this response. What makes her music "white"?

white makes her music

Hater Nabs retiring for the morning. I don't want to hate on Lizzo. Her music can be fun, and I'm happy she's successful.

Not cool that they're putting her in that box. I don't know her catalogue but I can't cosign that when this is a single.

What was that bar drake spit...

Coli posters can act obtuse all they want, Lizzo's music as it stands are for middle aged overweight white women who shop at Target.

I don't even hate her but she and you know damn well she ain't getting no play in the whip.

She doesn’t make music for white people. Black people just think that they are only supposed to listen to hip-hop and R&B. I personally listen to everything:yeshrug:
she's gotten a few of her hit songs featured in movies and tv shows too. recently heard her song playing prominently on an episode of 'The 4400'.

Lizzo makes some good ass music. 2021 you couldn’t go to any restaurant/club/lounge, turn on your tv, or even turn on the radio without hearing a Lizzo song. It’s sad that people are too focused on her looks to give her her flowers.

Her music is cheesy but at the end of the day, she's not harming anyone.
Cac artists pander to or try to market their music to Black people all the time so what's wrong with Lizzo doing the opposite?

Plus in this day and age, we need more Black artists making family-friendly music so that our youth will also have these influences to look up to.
That is also where the money's at because Lizzo's music gets synced to a lot of advertisements.
She’s the one that’s upset, not us. She can make whatever music she likes

The words cheesy and corny have lost all meaning. Now it just means being positive. If someone makes murder music they're keeping it real but you sing about staying positive and celebrating life you're corny. Sad.

The nikkas in here playing obtuse have never bought a lizzo cd or ticket

“but you’re putting black people in a box”

Shut up. Rihanna makes pop and Steve lacy makes alt rock, both have plenty of black fans.

Lizzo’s personality caters to white people and it shines through her music. She said this on the fukking Howard stern show for Christ sake.

Let me guess, the Howard stern show is apart of black culture now because black culture is anything someone black does at the moment apparently?
