“Grrrls” is a promotional single for Lizzo’s fourth studio album "Special". It’s an empowering anthem about women sharing their love and power with each other with a beat that samples “Girls” by Beastie Boys. It has a similar upbeat, empowering feel as her smash hit “Truth Hurts”.
Two days before the track was released, Lizzo teased the track through her TikTok account.
"benny blanco and I had never worked together before this album. We’d eaten together, but we’d never worked together. Then one day I heard he wanted to get in the studio and I was like, ‘Oh shit, okay, let’s make it happen.’ He came with one track and it was this. So I sat with it for a while. Eventually I was like, ‘Listen, this is either going to be the greatest song ever or the biggest waste of our time.’ Because Beastie Boys were one of the greatest copyrights of all time. No one, and I mean no one, has done this. Until now. Dude, Beastie Boys cleared “Girls” for yours truly. It’s an honour."
