the lyrics are corny and the instrumental part in the chorus sounds dated imo...other than that, it's fine I guess.

It's okay, it's missing oomph though. Not sure if it's the production or if it's Lizzo sounding kinda muted on it. It definitely gets better once Cardi's verse hits and the instrumental gets more complex.

That's it, that seals the deal! I'm no longer a Lizzo fan! I've been a Lizzo fan for decades but after listening to Rumors I have decided to stop supporting her! This is quite possibly, quite literally, sincerely, the worst possible music I have ever heard! My ears are bleeding, currently on my way to the nearest hospital.
Seriously though I don't like this at all. Sounds weird and not in a good way.

This grates. She strikes one note with her singles.

Even though this is something I won’t actively listen to, I love this. Lizzo’s personality is so great on this and I love how the instrumental fits multiple genres. I think the horns (which remind me of the horns in Ghostbusters) will help this to fit on pop radio. The lyrics are so good, especially the Drake line and being let out of the house. I also love how this actually feels like a collab between the two artists instead of a feature verse thrown in

Funny, but this has natural flow and more greatness to it than any Cardi B-s recent singles. The only thing that I do not like is the video, which follows all these Cardi and Meghan videos trend which make women look really cheap, what is wrong with these rapper queens...

Pretty good, not her best but of course not many artists reach their ceiling very often so, this'll do

the instrumental part in the chorus sounds dated imo For some reason it reminds me of the Ghostbusters theme song a little? Idk why lol.

About a third of the way through it gets really good, and then when Cardis verse starts I absolutely love it.

Cardi really makes this song work. I'm not sure how it's gonna fare with audiences but it's a cute bop.

Pure trash. Lizzo continues to squander what actual talent she does possess. It's sad to see. Cardi's verse was also so quick and reeked of the label head pushing the collab. It's like she couldn't wait to get off the song. I'm sure gay whites will love it and scream YASSSS KWEEN tho so whatever. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The chorus is really good, but the verses are all sloppy and forgettable.

The chorus production, and Cardi’s feature are the only thing I like.
I can’t believe she’d release this after the flop that is Cuz I Love You.

I enjoyed it a bunch and I expect people will be eating their words once the song has a few days/weeks to sink in.

This thread is a clownshow already. You offended, boo? Truth hurts. Get over yourself. I said it before: Lizzo has talent, especially on the flute, but her cheap attempts at "body positivity" and corny singles will never get a pass from me. You rushing in here to be Captain Save-a-Ho and attacking my opinion doesn't change s**t, but thanks for playing anyway?

You made a s**tty, condescending comment and this a public forum so I can call you out if I want to. This isn't a safe space, honey. And how about you get over yourself, and imagine that people can enjoy the song without being living embodiments of stereotypes? Gay black men might enjoy this too. And straight black men. And a lotta other demographics.

LOL gurl.
I've been here for over a decade and definitely don't need the likes of you to tell me what kinda space this is, especially since you seemingly mistake this for a Lizzo fan board, where you somehow think you can police people's opinions and thoughts on her and her music. Anyway, you bore me. I'm gonna see if the visuals for the song are better than the song itself. Here's hoping!

I don't think Active Aggressive was being homophobic. Comprehension skill and even a tiny bit of sense of humor can go a long way.

I'm hoping this is just a song to collect a quick hit and there is growth and quality on the album. More singing and flute playing, please!

This sounds good as hell on the radio! Perfect launch to this new era. I hope we get the album this year.
