American singer and rapper Melissa Viviane Jefferson, popularly known as Lizzo, has said the shift from radio to streaming contributed to her dwindling fanbase.
Addressing an X post by a fan who mentioned that her fanbase has been dwindling in the past two years, Lizzo explained that she is a “radio darling” and most people discovered her music through radio, adding that the current shift from radio to streaming made her lost the bulk of her fans.
Lizzo claimed that her career is also under attack from saboteurs.
The Grammy-winning singer said she is currently doing her best to say afloat.
“…The industry changed so much in the last 3 yrs. streaming replaced radio and I was a radio darling. That’s how my fans discovered my music. Not to mention the very obvious and public attack on my career changed things,” Lizzo’s post partly read.
