Contemporary R&B
Contemporary R&BGospelHip hop

Lizzo is a Contemporary R&B and Gospel act. Their catalogue also touches Hip hop and House. Their sound grew out of Purple Disco Machine, Raveena, Speedy Ortiz, Bree Runway and Kid Francescoli. Those roots explain a lot about how Lizzo arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Cardi B, Chlöe, Megan Thee Stallion, Destiny's Child and Jessie J, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Break My Soul, Merol, AB6IX, Destiny and SZA, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 45 connections around Lizzo, reaching back through Purple Disco Machine and forward to Break My Soul. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
