Lizzo
Solo artist Detroit United States American rapper, singer and actress
Lizzo is an artist from Detroit. Lizzo has 77 chart appearances on 41 radio countdowns from 13 stations on RockLists, spanning 2014–2026. The most successful song on radio countdowns is “Juice”, which appears on 19 lists and was voted number one twice. In total the artist has topped 4 countdowns. The station that charted Lizzo most often is The Current (Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN), with 22 appearances. The artist’s biggest year on year-end countdowns was 2022.
Lizzo was born Melissa Jefferson in Detroit in 1988, grew up in Houston, and got her start in the Minneapolis hip-hop scene, where Lizzobangers in 2013 and Big GRRRL Small World in 2015 showed off a rapper who could also sing like a gospel powerhouse and, when the mood struck, pull out a flute. Atlantic signed her in 2016, and the Coconut Oil EP brought "Good as Hell", a strutting, hand-on-hip anthem, and "Worship".
Then the slow burn caught fire. Cuz I Love You, in 2019, is a brassy, joyful blast of soul, funk-pop and hip-hop swagger, belted rather than sung: "Juice" struts like it owns the block, the title track is a full-throated soul belter, and "Like A Girl" and "Boys" keep the confidence cranked. Meanwhile her older single "Truth Hurts" turned into a viral sleeper hit years after it first came out. The album's run brought her 3 Grammys, Best Progressive R&B Album among them.
Special followed in 2022, led by "About Damn Time", a disco-flavored strut that won the Grammy for Record of the Year, with "Grrrls" and "2 Be Loved (Am I Ready)" alongside. After a break came the mixtape My Face Hurts from Smiling in 2025 and the album Bitch in 2026.
