The most controversial song in recent months has been Impious of Sam Smith and Kim Petras. This is undoubtedly a subject that will mark a path for the LGTBI collective since thanks to it, Kim is positioned as the first transsexual woman to win a Grammy Award. A real milestone for progress and equality. In itself, the collaboration between the two artists had not pleased too much among the most conservative sectors of the world. Indeed, Sam Smith is considered gender fluid and Kim is a transgender woman, and unfortunately the artistic fusion of the two has not been appreciated by some people.
Her performance, both at the Brits Awards and the Grammys, gave plenty to talk about and the reviews were overwhelming. In countries like the United States, there is a part of the population that thinks this song is a an apology to the devil or even a satanic ritual. The madness has reached such a point that there are videos of people insulting Sam Smith in the streets of New York.
The singer Lizzo, known for always being at the foot of the canyon against inequalities, spoke about it as she knows how to do: by singing. As is customary, in the Live Show Since BBC radio the artists invited to sing perform their musical repertoire then a Bonus Track cover.
For this reason, the artist decided to show his support to his colleagues by interpreting this theme in the best possible way. The performance was up to the task, accompanied by a full band, guitar, bass and drums, plus three backing vocals, they set the bar very high. In addition, as Lizzo usually does, the artist performed an already viral flute solo on the networks.
This is by no means the first time Lizzo has graced English radio cover, on other occasions the American has put her vocals to songs by BTS and Harry Styles.
Insults to Sam Smith
As we mentioned before, the song generated incredible controversy, it reached such an extent that the artist Sam Smith was harassed and insulted while he was leisurely walking in a park in New York. It was then that an elderly lady began to profane all the insults that came into her head, each one worse than the other:
“You will burn in hell. Sam Smith, you’re going to rot in hell, you demonic bastard. Leave the kids alone, you filthy bastard. Sam Smith is a pedophilea corrupt miner, a sick goat.” These are some of the beautiful words this lady dedicated to Sam.
