    One of the most anticipated albums of our generation
  • Sza is an amazing songwriter, out of this word how that woman can put emotions through lyrics just like dat, i freaking love her
  • @vidlova11
    If anyone has noticed our generation of R and B artists are prioritizing their mental health and pouring that energy into their music
  • @lilrick456
    When she said "life is hard and being expected to perform at a high level all the time while life is lifing" really spoke to me 😩🥴🤔
  • @Sean-wj7gj
    I LOVE HER she just seems so genuine and wise to herself I aspire to have a "I can be anything" thought process
  • @lula1626
    i like hearing that she didnt grow up singing or play instruments. i sometimes feel like i am not a true aspiring musician because i dint start singing and playing when i was young and most musicians speak of how they started at like 9 years old
  • @r.madijas8355
    When she said “To be expected to do anything at a high level while life is lifing is crazy” that was FELT!!!!
  • “…to be expected to do anything at a HIGH LEVEL, while life is lifeing is fuckin’ hard. & then you’re supposed to be a NICE person on top of that?” I FELT EVERY SINGLE WORD SHE SPOKE‼️ SOLANA i love ya & i’m READY for this new Era Mama.🦋
  • she's so relatable even with her status that most people don't have. it really isn't about your material wealth, it's about your authenticity
  • @itsrealkenna
    SZA is the kind of success story that encourages me as a underground artist with a small following. Seeing how she’s developed her skills and slowly blown up after seizing each and every opportunity she’s been giving has been inspirational! She has quickly become a mainstay in the industry and for good reason. She is too fire! I know if I put in the work, I can reach a larger audience some day too, but for now, I’m happy being a supporter. My turn will come too. Salute to SZA🔥
  • @tonyxpajamas
    No but how is she so incredible??!? The future will be bright for SZA
  • @j.a.h.3836
    everything she said about pressure to make music while life is lifeing & writing music because it makes you happy & not trying to chase super stardom really hit for me being on my artist journey
  • I hope SZA can enjoy this album release. I can understand how this moment and the pressure around it has kept her from releasing an album for years, but I'm happy that she's here now. And I can't wait to take my time and enjoy the music.
  • HYPE HER UP SHE DOESN'T PUT OUT MUSIC BECAUSE SHE THINKS SHE'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH BUT SHE'S AMAZIIIIIING. I AM STILL LISTENING TO CTRL EVERY DAY. SHE IS SO TALENTED
  • i love hearing her talk and getting to see her personality. she’s so normal lol
  • @dariaa-
