Fresh off a Grammy win for βRecord Of The Year,β the multi-platinum certified superstar Lizzo has teamed up with her close friend, the genre-defying artist SZA, for the stunning βSpecialβ.
βWoke up this morning to somebody judging me/No surprise they judging me, donβt know who Iβm βposed to be/Iβm just acting up, Iβm pressed as fuck and never saying sorry/Found it in the end, I can only do it for me,β SZA sings on the new opening verse. βYou call sensitive and I call it superpower/You just like empathy βcause you think it gives you power/All I know is only God can judge me/I donβt hide my heart, I wear it on me.β
The fan-favorite duo gave the highly-anticipated track its live debut during Lizzoβs sold-out LA Kia Forum show. An empowering song with sentimental importance to Lizzo herself and named by SZA as her personal favorite song on Lizzoβs βSpecialβ album, the collab delivers unabashed positivity.
The heartwarming βSpecialβ music video is also streaming via YouTube. Directed by award-winning cinematographer Christian Breslauer (Doja Cat, The Weeknd, SZA), the wholesome and uplifting visual highlights Lizzoβs natural superhero energy.
