Lizzo's Vibes Primed To Make You Feel Good As Hell

Lizzo is primed to be the darling everybody remembers from S X SW. Why? Because she gives us all reason to believe there's life in the world of Minneapolis music after the dearly departed greatly missed Prince. "Good as Hell" presents Lizzo's contagious, uplifting vibes to a global audience for the very first time. Black power gets shouted to the rafters on the wings of an amazingly beefed up chorus that makes you want to make a beeline to church to testify. Come to think of it she's not too hard on the eyes either as the accompanying video demonstrates. Lots of strong black women getting their style on. The chorus is also one of those memorable ditties that you'll be remembering long after the song hits its final note. You wish "Good As Hell" was longer than its two minute forty-five second playing time. At the heart of Lizzo's spirited romp is a plea to her soul sisters to walk out on the man who doesn't love them anymore and devote a little time to some self-healing. Get to the pool, make sure the hair's looking fine, and the nails pass muster. While there's no direct link to Prince in terms of sonic influence what the two do share is a certain level of roof raising panache that is sure to land Lizzo in crowd pleaser status wherever she goes. Lucky for us she's in our fair city to impress the locals. Most impressive is this notion that "Good As Hell" could be well received in any city backdrop imaginable. Pass the sunscreen ladies and crank that s--t up. Lizzo and the beach go like hand in glove. A church setting would be ideal and pay proper homage to Prince's legacy. Blasting from the car radio would be a tremendous way to keep that Austin traffic anger at bay. It might even make grocery shopping tolerable. Lizzo positions herself as a force to reckoned with for years to come. "Good As Hell" is a great track at a moment in history when we all could use some serious uplift.
