Just go listen to her new album. The whole thing is great, no a single song I don't like.
But... if you need somewhere to start, "Like a Girl" is my favorite of the bunch.





A close second is this one:



I could probably write an entire paper about what Lizzo's rise to fame means for me as fat woman. I consider myself a pretty self-confident person but the way she sings about herself continues to blow me away. I can't wait to see where she goes from here. These two songs specifically though are highlights on the subject of self-love and self-confidence and learning to know and trust who you believe yourself to be. I can't say exactly how much I wish I'd been given music like this when I was younger, but I'm glad there's younger people today who can listen to this and hopefully learn to feel not just good, but powerful, in who they are.

Yesssss! Can't wait to go through this album slowly. Lizzo is so fabulous and deserves all the success she's getting now. I'm glad to hear she's had a positive impact on you. ♥
