Lizzo knows how to party. And she\u2019ll bring that expertise to Madison this fall.<\/p>\n
The undisputed queen of the Twin Cities will headline The Sylvee on Oct. 10<\/a>, it was announced this morning.<\/p>\n Born Melissa Jefferson in Houston, Texas, Lizzo relocated to Minneapolis in 2011 and quickly became a fixture of that city\u2019s hip-hop and R&B scene. Her debut, Lizzobangers<\/em>, <\/strong>was pure Minnesota \u2014 it was even produced by Doomtree\u2019s Lazerbeak. But the intervening years have seen the 30-year-old singer and classically trained flautist\u2019s star rise dramatically. Her new third release, Cuz I Love You<\/em>, is a Certified Banger\u2122 and her first No. 1 album<\/a>. This is a fact Lizzo delighted in telling a rapt audience at Coachella over the weekend. But when the queen speaks, the peasants have to listen.<\/p>\n
