There's a reason Lizzo has been one of the most talked-about artists of this year. Her Tiny Desk performance — filled with her trademark transcendent vocals and exclamations about self-love and perseverance — once again shows why.
That's how Lizzo opens her Tiny Desk performance at NPR, the first for the singer/rapper and something she said she's been wanting to do for a long time.And, of course, she killed it.Lizzo, whose real name is Melissa Jefferson, opened her performance with"Cuz I Love You," the title track from her third studio album. She ends the song by belting out the chorus, holding the notes for longer than we thought humanly possible. It's glorious.
The desk is, admittedly, pretty small. NPR Music started doing these shows in 2008, and the live concert video series has blown up. Indie acts like Foxing and established stars like Adele, Mac Miller, Erykah Badu and T.I. have taken part, creating an intimate performance space reminiscent of a bar set, but with better sound quality. In NPR's writeup of the event, it says Lizzo's set was one of the most populated it's ever held.
