Lizzo shared a stunning cover of "Lift Every Voice and Sing" on TikTok in celebration of Juneteenth today (June 19.)

The "About Damn Time" singer is seen wearing an eye-catching pink outfit as she shows off her vocal chops in the video with an acapella cover. The track has been dubbed the "Black National Anthem." "Happy Juneteenth!" Lizzo wrote in the caption, alongside a link to her website where she's hosting her "Third Annual Juneteenth Giveback." Fans gushed over her vocals in the comments:

Lizzo has said of her upcoming album Special that's releasing on July 15th, “I think people are going to be really surprised at how many love songs are on this album.” So far, two singles have been released: "About Damn Time" and "Grrrls." That's not all there is to look forward to if you're a Lizzo fan, however — it was recently announced that the singer has a documentary premiering on HBO Max this fall.
