Future Black History Month: Lizzo's Inspiring Dedication to Shaking Up the Norm

FUSE TV - Future Black History Month: Lizzo's Inspiring Dedication to Shaking Up the Norm

Fuse is once again celebrating an extended Black History Month by highlighting a variety of rising forces who are creating Future Black History before our very eyes. Whether it's from her unmistakable rap flow or striking vocal delivery, anyone with ears can tell there's something special about Lizzo. But the rising star represents something much larger than R&B's exciting new talent.

In every one of her videos and live performances, Lizzo is the undeniable star. From playing a regal goddess in "Scuse Me" to dance maniac in "Phone," she shines on her own but also looks to shine the spotlight on those who don't fit the general, cookie-cutter norm many have come to expect in popular music media. In "Phone," we see her and two other plus-size, black women break it down in a routine that recalls Beyoncé's "Single Ladies" dance while in "Scuse Me" Lizzo is the lead empress among a slew of badass, bodacious babes all dressed like the goddesses they are.
