Kicking off what promises to be a blockbuster era, 4x GRAMMY® Award and Emmy award winning, RIAA multi-platinum certified superstar Lizzo returns with a brand new song entitled “Love In Real Life” available now on all streaming platforms via Nice Life Recording Company/Atlantic Records. She also shared a big screen-worthy music video directed by Collin Tilley to accompany the track. It notably marks her first solo release in three years since 2022. 

Moreover, it also heralds the arrival of her fifth full-length LP and one of the most anticipated albums of 2025, Love In Real Life, coming this summer. 

“Love In Real Life” finds Lizzo firing on all cylinders. Once again, she boldly evolves, leaning into rock ‘n’ roll like never before. The track’s soft spoken word intro gives way to bright guitar and a breezy beat illuminated by her instantly recognizable delivery. Picking up the pace, wild riffing and a boogie down groove underline an unrestrained and undeniable refrain as she issues a flirty invitation, “Baby come over here, I need love in real life.” The visual evokes this energy and elevates her to another level altogether.

To celebrate the start of this chapter, Lizzo will perform three super intimate headline shows next month. First up, she graces the stage of The Wiltern in Los Angeles on March 12 followed by Webster Hall in New York, NY on March 16 and First Ave in Minneapolis, MN on March 18. Ticket requests go live at [TIME] today. Fans will receive tickets by March 5.

Earlier this month, she ignited social media by teasing “Love In Real Life.” First up, she bid “farewell” to her Special era in a viral post followed by the reveal of a flute-soundtracked trailer for “Love In Real Life,” generating hundreds of thousands of views and “likes.” Rolling Stone noted, “She is entering a ‘new era’ of music,” and Billboard excitedly proclaimed, “It’s about damn time for some new Lizzo music.”
