Lizzo Celebrates 6 Months On Vegan Diet With Self-Love Message
Lizzo loves herself at all stages of her life— and she wants her fans to do the same. The 32-year-old singer posted a TikTok on Tuesday composed of various clips of her throughout her venture into veganism, in which she reflects on her journey. The viral TikTok opens up with a clip of Lizzo in March, dumping pieces of pound cake and other assorted foods into a blender, followed by a clip of her present-day, making a vegan protein shake, demonstrating the stark changes she has made in her diet since the start of quarantine.
“Hey so I found this video of me from the beginning of quarantine making what looks like a stale donut, pound cake, milkshake type concoction,” narrates Lizzo, “This is from a whirlwind tour and year, and after being seven years vegetarian, going back to eating all animal products,”
Quarantine marked the end of many people’s diets, and Lizzo was no exception. With gyms having closed, adjusting to working from home, and endless uncertainty engulfing the world, healthy eating took a backseat while people shifted their focus elsewhere. Contrasting from the inspiration porn that tends to overtake social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok during times of universal hardship, Lizzo’s message is not that she’s “happier” when she’s eating mindfully, but rather that she is happiest when she does what feels right and natural to her, which, as it currently stands, is veganism.

“Honestly, I am both of these women and I cannot condemn one woman or the other. I’m happy both ways and right now, this is what’s bringing me joy,” Lizzo continues, “This is me at the beginning of quarantine, happy, loving myself, dancing. And, you know what? I’m still that happy girl, loving myself and loving my body.”
Lizzo’s message enforces her belief that the pursuit of self-betterment should not be done for the approval of anyone other than oneself, and she ends her video by telling viewers “Love yourself at all stages in your life because you are who you are.”

Wyn Calico create the need to support with his latest release “Support”
Wyn Calico steps into deeply personal territory with his latest single, “Support,” a heartfelt offering that addresses a feeling many people know, but rarely express so openly. It’s a song about the universal desire to be encouraged, recognised, and uplifted, turning personal frustration into a relatable message of resilience.
“Support” is a meditation on what it feels like to work tirelessly for something you want, but not have the support you need to fully achieve it. Wyn Calico expresses the emotional burden of wanting to make a difference, believing in your purpose, and still moving forward when you hit setbacks. The song is not only about disappointment, but also a rallying cry of resilience in the face of adversity.
This song also highlights an important truth, there are many talented and hard-working people out there who have everything it takes to make a difference, except the encouragement and opportunity to flourish. Wyn Calico’s lyrics and delivery shine a light on that struggle and offer a sense of solidarity to those in similar situations.
“Support” isn’t just a personal statement. It’s a conversation starter. It encourages us to think about the value of community, support, and believing in each other. Wyn Calico’s latest drop is honest, relatable, and emotionally driven, a powerful reminder that even in the moments of isolation, the desire to keep pushing forward is still stronger than ever.

NNORDY steps into jazz fusion with latest release “Wrong Turn”
NNORDY’s latest release, “Wrong Turn” is a fully live jazz fusion album that showcases the limitless possibilities of instrumental storytelling with the remarkable chemistry between guitar, keyboards, bass, and drums. The song has no words but is an excellent story told through musicianship and sets the stage for listeners to embark on a rich jazz experience.
“Wrong Turn” shows the strength of live performance from the get-go. Each instrument feels alive and in conversation with the others, a dynamic dialogue that develops organically over the course of the piece. Without vocal guidance, each musical phrase is left to speak for itself, giving the listener the freedom to interpret the track in their own way.
The guitar and keyboards often lead, crafting complex melodic lines and textures that give the music direction and atmosphere. Meanwhile, the bass and drums lay down a solid rhythmic base, creating movement and momentum while still leaving a lot of room for exploration. NNORDY creates a track that both dedicated jazz fans and listeners looking for something adventurous and fresh will enjoy. “Wrong Turn” shows that instrumental music can be as expressive and compelling as vocal music.
