Born in Detroit, Michigan, she moved to Houston, Texas, with her family at the age of ten. After college, she moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota, where she began her recording career in hip hop music. Prior to signing with Nice Life Recording Company and Atlantic Records, Lizzo released two studio albums, ''Lizzobangers'' (2013) and ''Big Grrrl Small World'' (2015). Her first major-label extended play (EP), ''Coconut Oil'', was released in 2016.Lizzo attained mainstream success with the release of her third studio album, ''Cuz I Love You'' (2019), which peaked at number four on the US ''Billboard'' 200. The album spawned the singles "Juice" and "Tempo". The deluxe version of the album included Lizzo's 2017 single "Truth Hurts", which became a viral sleeper hit two years after its initial release. It topped the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and became the longest-leading solo song by a female rapper. Around this time, her 2016 single "Good as Hell" also climbed the charts, reaching the top ten of the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and UK Singles Chart. Lizzo received eight nominations at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards—the most for any artist that year—including nominations for each of the "Big Four" categories, and won the awards for Best Urban Contemporary Album, Best Pop Solo Performance for "Truth Hurts", and Best Traditional R&B Performance for the song "Jerome".
In 2021, Lizzo released the single "Rumors" (featuring Cardi B), which debuted in the top five of the ''Billboard'' Hot 100. Her fourth studio album, ''Special'' (2022), was preceded by its lead single "About Damn Time", which reached number one on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and made Lizzo the first black female singer since Whitney Houston in 1994 to win the Grammy Award for Record of the Year.
Along with her recording career, Lizzo has also worked as an actress; she performed a voice role in the animated film ''UglyDolls'' (2019), and appeared in the crime comedy-drama film ''Hustlers'' (2019).
