I never would have thought my favorite album of the year (so far) would have come from a new discovery. This is a solid body of work, a nice mix of R&B, funk and hip hop, and most importantly filler free.
Her voice is so good, and I love that she kept it raw and real on tracks like "Cuz I Love You" and "Jerome". She also delivered bops like "Juice", "Like A Girl" (is that bitch), and "Tempo" (I cackled so hard when listening to this because I saw the gif that shooter posted a few pages back). I don't even know which song is my least favorite, I'm just shook and in awe. I'm glad the reception to this has been great based on what I've seen so far.
Now let me get another spin in.

This album is ....loud as hell. But I understand, that's part of her aesthetic. It's definitely well put together. She is talented. I could see her being nominated (and winning?) Best New Artist at the 2020 GRAMMYs.

Best New Artist at the 2020 GRAMMYs. She has released music since 2013/14 I believe so I don't think she's considered a new artist anymore. I own a song of hers called "Good As Hell" and that was released in 2016 on a major label. If she hadn't yes I could easily see that.

She’s eligible since she’s come into “prominence” and she’s never been nominated before. Hell Alessia Cara won BNA two years after a top 10 hit.

She needs to beat Billie Eilish for that BNA win. We shall see, but I feel like Billie has the stronger album.

She had a major label deal (atlantic) (I think or distribution deal) and was on the 2016 Barbershop: The Next Cut movie sdtk starring Ice Cube. I've heard of her for a few years now and i'm not that big of a fan. In 2015 Spin magazine named her cd the num.15 best hop hop cd of the year. In 2016 her cd put out "Nice Life Recording Company and ATLANTIC records reached num.44 on the RnB album chart. I can't imagine her being nominated for "Best New Artist" at the Grammy's. If she was than that wouldn't seem right. You may be right and I'm not trying to argue but I can't see why she should get "BNA"??

The Jonas Brothers were nominated for their THIRD ALBUM, despite having 4 top 40 hits from before the represented eligibility period. Shelby Lynne won after her SIXTH album, even though the first four had all charted on Country Albums

I guess neither if them should have been nominated if they were on a major label??? Maybe the Grammy's should go back and give the BNA award to Whitney then the year Clive tried to get her nominated.. If Lizzo is nominated it will just be strange considering I've known and owned a song by her for well over 2 years? Maybe The Grammys have turned more into what the business wants and not what's right by the music.

If Dua Lipa Can get nominated for Best New Artist I don't see why Lizzo Can't. That category is always a mess anyway, but Lizzo is definitely in need of her well-deserved flowers come January/February 2020.

I listened to everything she has on soundcloud yesterday. Then bought the deluxe of this album from Itunes and downloaded everything else from my streaming platform (Amazon). I'm old. lol
