On May 1st, Lizzo just dropped her single bitch, pulling the chorus straight from Meredith Brooks' 1997 hit of the same name. That original track climbed to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and snagged two Grammy nominations back in the day. The Brooks song stirred up noise for its raw lyrics that her label left uncensored, plus some folks called it a knockoff of a Lannis Moore set style. It captured that wild mix of traits in one woman, owning every side without apology. Lizzo tweaks just one line to fit her vibe, turning it into a bold anthem. On Instagram, she calls it a woman of festo for ladies hit with the B word for setting boundaries, owning their sexuality, speaking out, or hustling hard. In business, Meredith Brooks jumped in the comments with pure hype, adding hearts and reposting the video as a queen shout out. She even shared a news clip highlighting the link between the tracks. This passing of the torch shows how those 90s anthem still fuel today's fire, keeping the conversation alive on what it means to be.
