\u201cThis is probably the biggest criticism I\u2019ve received, and it is such a critical conversation when it comes to black artists,\u201d the singer said. \u201cWhen black people see a lot of white people in the audience, they think, \u2018Well, this isn\u2019t for me. This is for them.\u2019 The thing is, when a black artist reaches a certain level of popularity, it\u2019s going to be a predominantly white crowd.\u201d\n\n\n\n

The intelligent singer and the business woman added, \u201cI am not making music for white people. I am a black woman. I am making music from my black experience.\u201d\n\n\n\n

Lizzo also had a few choice words for the critics who are trying to paint her as a racist.\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Kanye West, 45, made remarks about Lizzo\u2019s weight on Fox News with Tucker Carlson. West said, \u201cWhen Lizzo loses 10 pounds and announces it, the bots \u2014 that\u2019s a term for like telemarketer callers on Instagram \u2014 they attack her for losing weight because the media wants to put out a perception that being overweight is the new goal when it\u2019s actually unhealthy.\n\n\n\n

\u201cLet\u2019s get aside the fact of whether it\u2019s fashion and vogue, which it\u2019s not. Or if someone thinks she is attractive, to each his own. It\u2019s actually clinically unhealthy, and for people to promote that\u2026 it\u2019s demonic.\u201d\n\n\n\n

Carlson pushed West to explain why he felt that this is being done to people of the Black race. West had an answer in his back pocket.\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2018It\u2019s a genocide of the black race. They want to kill us in any way they can.\u201d\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
