The rumors are true. Lizzo has made her return today with her first new single in two years—and in the grandest of style. The joyous new track “Rumors” is a collaboration with her Hustlers co-star Cardi B and is packed with everything you could possibly want from Lizzo: triumphant horns, a brilliantly funky bassline, and more juicy one-liners than you can shake a stick at. “If you thought that I was ratchet with my ass hangin’ out,” she sings on the chorus, “just wait until the summer when they let me out the house, bitch!”
It isn’t just the song to get excited about, either. Yesterday night, the pair dropped a spectacular, cinematic video to accompany the track featuring themselves as Grecian goddesses stalking the sunny heights of Mount Olympus. (Should we consider this an unofficial audition for Lizzo and Cardi B to play the muses in the upcoming live-action remake of Hercules?)
