‘All I want is to make music and make people happy and help the world be better than how I found it,’ said Grammy Award winner Lizzo while Clarifying the ‘I Quit’ Statement
Melissa Viviane Jefferson, an American rapper and singer known as Lizzo, started getting DMs from her worried fans as she posted an Instagram post on Wednesday. Earlier, the singer posted a statement, ‘I Quit,’ on Instagram, leaving her fans, followers, and other musicians wondering what had happened.
Lizzo has undoubtedly given her best to the US Pop scene and delivered some of the best music in her artistic career. When such an artist posts a cryptic message on social media platforms, it goes viral quickly. However, the singer has clarified that she is not quitting music. She meant to say she would ignore the negative energy when she mentioned quitting.
In a recent Instagram post, Lizzo shared that music is her love and that she enjoys the art and process of making music. She added that music connects people and, regardless of shape or form, negative energy often dominates the positive one. She talked about how she won’t pay attention to the negative vibes.
Since body shaming is the worst criticism someone can face in their life, it became necessary to stop hanging out with such people who derogate an individual’s morale and self-esteem. Similarly, Lizzo used to face constant backlashes and comments on her body, size, and color, which is why she has dealt with a lot of emotional and mental distress online and offline. With the same thought, the singer expressed her distress and frustration through an Instagram post.
In the social media post, Lizzo shared that she is the subject of negative criticism and can’t handle more stress and objective biases about her appearance from strangers. Lizzo’s love for music is unarguably eternal, and her passion for this art has helped her earn four Grammy Awards, Billboard Music Awards, Brit Awards, and More.
However, as we know, when fame knocks on the door, it also comes with a lot of jealousy, envy, clout chasing, and trolls that can affect a person, and the same thing happened to Lizzo. At the end of the post, she wrote ‘I Quit’ and a peace sign emoji, and that’s why her fans started questioning Lizzon’s music career.
In addition, Lizzo performed at the high-profile fundraiser for President Joe Biden, and the event also included some of the most prominent faces like Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. In the worst-case scenario, Lizzo also faced an accusation of sexual harassment from her former dancers. But to safeguard herself, Lizzo denied the allegations.
