Overview
- Lizzo released Bitch on Friday with a black-and-white video directed by Child that casts her and her dancers as circus performers.
- She calls the song a declaration of confidence and dedicates it to women penalized for setting boundaries, speaking up, working hard, or owning their sexuality.
- The track interpolates Meredith Brooks’ 1997 hit Bitch, and Stereogum reports it also samples Missy Elliott’s 1999 She’s a Bitch.
- Production credits list Ricky Reed, Blake Slatkin, and Zack Sekoff.
- Spotify’s preview shows a 12-track album due June 5 that includes Don’t Make Me Love U, Bitch, She Stole My Man, and more, following April’s early single Don’t Make Me Love U.
