Lizzo tells the Swiftologist that SZA called her after new album ‘B*TCH’ failed to chart on Billboard 200:
“Thank God for Solána, she called me and was like ‘you’re on my mind.’ I was like ‘am I a failure???’ and she was like ‘oh my god no!’ — she’s so sweet.” pic.twitter.com/oCjfmWWbEZ

Lizzo went on on the *sigh* Swiftologist Podcast to open about her recent flopping with Bitch.
“I was really stressed and really sad for a few days because this is some of my best stuff. I had to come to terms with the fact that not only is the music industry different – we need to talk about the radio aspect – but also my relationship and my connection musically with the world is different. And I think I had to mourn that.”
She also reveled that SZA called her to check up on her, and assured her that she isn’t a failure.
