Lizzo es elegida como la artista del año

La prestigiosa revista Time eligió a la estadounidense, quien obtuvo la mayor cantidad de nominaciones en los Grammy, como la artista del año 2019. Oriunda de la ciudad de Detroit, esta artista de 31 años lleva casi una década dedicada a la música. En 2013 estrenó su primer disco Lizzobangers, pero su fama no explotó hasta algunos años después cuando editó la canción Good as hell.

“I’ve been doing positive music for a long-ass time. Then the culture changed. There were a lot of things that weren’t popular but existed, like body positivity, which at first was a form of protest for fat bodies and black women and has now become a trendy, commercialized thing. Now I’ve seen it reach the mainstream. Suddenly I’m mainstream! How could we have guessed something like this would happen when we’ve never seen anything like this before?” – story for @time by Sam Irby

He estado haciendo música positiva por mucho tiempo. Luego la cultura cambió, habían muchas cosas que no eran populares pero existían, como el body positive, que al principio era una forma de protesta por los cuerpos gordos y las mujeres negras, pero ahora se ha vuelto algo de moda y se comercializó

Attending a Lizzo concert feels like worshipping at the church of self-love, writes Samantha Irby (@bitchesgottaeat), if your preacher was a pop star living joyfully in a big black body, delivering a sermon of self-acceptance that’s as frank as it is accessible. At a time when Instagrammers are shilling flat-tummy tea or pretending to eat a giant cheeseburger, @lizzobeeating sells something more radical: the idea that you are already enough.

Lizzo Is TIME's 2019 Entertainer of the Year. Why was this the year—after nearly a decade on the road, performing shows for next to nothing, living in her car, being her own hype man—that @lizzobeeating racked up more Grammy nominations than any other artist? “I’ve been doing positive music for a long-ass time,” she tells TIME. “Then the culture changed. There were a lot of things that weren’t popular but existed, like body positivity, which at first was a form of protest for fat bodies and black women and has now become a trendy, commercialized thing. Now I’ve seen it reach the mainstream. Suddenly I’m mainstream!” Lizzo represents something new, writes Samantha Irby (@bitchesgottaeat). Her sound is relentlessly positive and impossibly catchy. Her lyrics are funny, bawdy and vulnerable: reminders to dump whatever idiot is holding you back and become your own biggest fan.

su sonido implacablemente positivo y pegajoso. Sus letras son divertidas, atrevidas y vulnerables, y te recuerdan mandar a la basura a cualquier idiota que te detenga y hace que te conviertas en tu propio fan.
