Lively, upbeat, confident: these are all words you could use to describe Lizzo [1]'s music. And yet, stripped-down, her songs still hold so much power. The vivacious singer recently participated in NPR's Tiny Desk Concert series [2], in which musicians are asked to perform behind, well, a tiny desk. "I've been wanting to do this for a long time," Lizzo said before kicking off the intimate performance. She added, "So, I think I'll do it, today."

Lizzo performed her soulful "Cuz I Love You," which she ended with a dramatic, applause-earning a cappella moment. She then launched into the ultimate breakup anthem, "Truth Hurts," [3] before ending on "Juice." And yes, of course her flute made an appearance. Watch the endlessly entertaining performance above.
