The Lizzo-Ron Burgundy Jazz Flute Battle Just Got Really Real And It ‘s Amazing
The music world is in a state of upheaval once again today as one of its most hardcore, bitter rivalries just escalated to a furious prestissimo hailstorm of woodwind notes. In short, Lizzo has dropped a bombshell. When Ron saw it he had this to say:
Damn.
Let ‘s back up real quick
ICYMI, after the “Juice ‘ singer first issued her #FluteAndShoot challenge last year, the social media dare made its way to the desk of legendary newsman Ron Burgundy, who accepted said challenge and then raised the stakes with his own dare right back to Lizzo. She responded with the following:
OH ITS ON LIKE HOT BUTTA ON POPCORN, BURGUNDY.
LETS TAKE IT TO THE STREETS https://t.co/IiHNcNLmdy

[gulp] well that sounds ominous
The jab left many wondering: WHERE DO THEY GO FROM HERE?
Now we know. Today, the Minneapolis rapper released an epic, face-melting clap back and, on top of that, the whole thing is a Lizzo-fied remake of the jazz flute scene from Anchorman when Ron brings down the house at Tino ‘s with his own off-the-cuff set.
For context, here ‘s the original scene in Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy:
Ron Burgundy doing what Ron Burgundy do.
So, could Lizzo live up to the hype?
Don ‘t let that misdirect fool you. We ‘re talking about Lizzo here, also known as the One Who Be Drippin ‘ So Much Sauce. Here ‘s the singer ‘s response.
Once egged onto the stage, Lizzo ‘ she brings it. And many amazing moments from Anchorman get reimagined, like this shot when Ron popped into a bathroom stall to interrupt a man who is trying to enjoy a nice magazine article without the worry of pants:
Lizzo did that too, with her own twist:
So yeah, the Jazz Flute Wars are heating up. Now, no one has name dropped Diddy (YET), but given the pattern of hip-hop rivalries in the past, I don ‘t think it ‘s too much of a stretch to imagine a possible Lizzo-Ron collaboration track, or even more amazing: a live on-stage performance.
Until then, it ‘s Lizzo, bitch.
