SZA has made a triumphant return with her highly anticipated album “SOS Deluxe: Lana,” released on Friday. This new project expands on the themes presented in her Grammy-nominated 2022 album “SOS,” with a collection of 14 fresh tracks, including a collaboration with Kendrick Lamar titled “30 For 30.” The lead single “Saturn,” which was released earlier this year, has already earned her two Grammy nominations for the upcoming ceremony.
The release faced a minor delay, as SZA noted on Instagram that she required additional time to ensure that the mixes were optimized across all platforms. She expressed gratitude to her fans for their patience amid the final touches to the album.
In conjunction with the album, SZA also released a unique music video for her song “Drive,” featuring comedian Ben Stiller. The moody visuals depict Stiller immersed in the song while navigating an empty road, eventually leading to an encounter with SZA, who appears adorned with ethereal makeup, further enhancing the album’s otherworldly theme.
Fans can look forward to attending SZA’s upcoming tour, where she will join forces with Kendrick Lamar for a series of concerts across the country. Additionally, she is set to star alongside Keke Palmer in the upcoming comedy film “One of Them Days.”
“SOS Deluxe: Lana” track list includes a blend of vibrant new releases and beloved tracks from the original “SOS” album.
Through her evolving creativity and willingness to explore diverse collaborations, SZA has continuously pushed boundaries in R&B. As she gears up for her upcoming tour, it’s an exciting time for both her and her fans, promising more music and unforgettable performances in the near future.
