SZA reflects on summer performances ahead of next album
On Monday, SZA revealed that she’s set on relaxing for a while, after her latest run of festival performances. The announcement, shared via her Twitter/X account, came with a heartfelt message: “Yesterday was my last show for a while. Finally bout to get my life together thank u God.” This revelation follows her dynamic performance at Lollapalooza in Chicago, where she showcased a preview of her upcoming single “Cry Baby” and thrilled fans with a set of her greatest hits. She also hit the stage at Osheaga, in Montreal.
The timing of SZA’s latest performances aligns with her focus on crafting her third studio album. After a year of work, she decided to scrap her planned “Lana” album—initially intended as a deluxe edition of her 2022 hit “SOS“—due to ongoing leaks of its tracks on social media. This shift underscores SZA’s commitment to delivering fresh and polished music for her dedicated fanbase.
Earlier this year, SZA continued to celebrate her success, adding three Grammy wins to her impressive resume. Her “SOS” album earned her accolades for Best R&B Song with “Snooze,” Best Progressive R&B Album, and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for her collaboration with Phoebe Bridgers on “Ghost In The Machine.”
As SZA takes this well-deserved break to focus on her personal life and new music, fans are eagerly anticipating what’s next. Stay tuned for updates on her forthcoming album and future performances.
