Lizzo remains as unapologetic as ever on the enthusiastic and self-assured anthem. A thumping bass line sets the tempo for the track between pulsating eighties-style keys and head-nodding claps. She comes to a realization on the chorus, “I don’t need him. I need a drink,” giving way to fiery funk guitar. Embracing confidence, charisma, and her power, she incites an irresistible chant, “After everything, I’m still surviving and I’m still bad, baby, so bitch I can’t complain.” The music video translates this energy to the screen!

She’s not just “Still Bad;” there’s no one badder in 2025…

The track lands in the wake of “Love In Real Life,” which took flight as her first solo release in three years since 2022. Its Colin Tilley-directed music video has already amassed over 7 million YouTube views and counting, while the song has posted up north of 2 million Spotify streams so far.

EUPHORIA. declared, “A little bit of pop, a little bit of soul and a little bit of rock was what it took to make ‘Love In Real Life,’ and if you’re not dancing, nodding your head, or tapping your feet as the high tempo song plays, what kind of person are you?”

Everything heralds the arrival of her fifth full-length LP and one of the most anticipated albums of 2025, Love In Real Life.

To celebrate the start of this chapter, Lizzo is performing three super intimate fan shows. She just graced the stage of The Wiltern in Los Angeles this week and will rock Irving Plaza in New York, NY on March 16 and First Avenue in Minneapolis, MN on March 18.

In February, she ignited social media by teasing “Love In Real Life.” First up, she bid “farewell” to her Specialera in a viral post followed by the reveal of a flute-soundtracked trailer for “Love In Real Life,” generating hundreds of thousands of views and “likes.” Rolling Stone noted, “She is entering a ‘new era’ of music,” andBillboard excitedly proclaimed, “It’s about damn time for some new Lizzo music.”
