2017 was a monumental year for R&B artist SZA. The sultry and soulful singer dropped her album Ctrl, garnering the most Grammy Award nominations for a female artist in 2018.
In an interview on Kerwin Frost Talks, “The Weekend” songstress alluded that her next studio album is coming “soon as f**k.” “Everybody I f**k with and respect never had an issue on sophomore albums. People who make real music, no bullsh*t, have never struggled with a sophomore album,” she said. “It is a little bit to dance in your brain like ‘What do people want from me?’ And then you just gotta make sh*t that feels good.”
Following an MTV Video Music Award, a BET Award for Best New Artist, a Billboard Music Award for Top R&B Female Artist, two Soul Train Music Awards, and three NAACP Image Awards, her highly-anticipated project is coming from a place that she compares to cognitive dissonance. The New Jersey native is inspired by the sounds of Billie Holiday, John Coltrane, Björk, and Wu-Tang Clan.
With no official release date announced, fans can only wonder if they will have all of the feels that her debut album successfully achieved.
