SZA dropped some exciting news during a recent appearance on Kai Cenat’s livestream. She revealed that her new album will be released before the end of the year.
Fans of SZA are in for a treat as she confirmed that her much-anticipated follow-up to ‘SOS’ is on its way. She made this announcement on TikTok star Kai Cenat’s 30-day “Mafiathon 2” livestream event, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.
SZA, best known for her hit ‘Kill Bill,’ hinted at a collaboration with Lil Yachty during the livestream. She recounted a near-miss studio session with the rapper, saying, “We were supposed to work on a song tomorrow and work in the studio and he was like, ‘I have to go to Kai’s.’ Make sure he makes it to the studio, on some real shit. ‘Cause somehow you just circumvented the session.” This statement reflects the rapper’s busy schedule but also teases their musical chemistry.
While SZA has kept fans guessing about the details of her upcoming project, she praised Lil Yachty’s abilities, calling him a talented producer and writer. She even expressed her aspiration to improve her own rapping skills, noting, “I feel like Yachty’s lowkey [talented as fuck]. Not even lowkey.”
Speculation about the title of SZA’s new album has been brewing, especially after her cryptic comments about working on two projects—a deluxe edition of ‘SOS’ and another album called ‘Lana.’ During a Vogue cover story, the singer clarified that ‘Lana’ is a separate project, not a deluxe version of her previous work.
Earlier this year, SZA bluntly addressed leaks of her music, stating, “So, we’ll make this really simple. Y’all leaked three songs from the deluxe. At this point, y’all can keep the throwaways and leaks. I’ll be starting ‘Lana’ from scratch. Do not ask me about it again. Thank you.” This approach shows her determination to present fresh, innovative material to her audience.
SZA has shared her journey about closing the chapter on her sophomore album and moving forward with her new creations. In an interview with Billboard, she expressed her eagerness to feel proud of her work beyond the accolades, illustrating her dedication to her craft.
With her new album set to release soon, SZA is ready to share another chapter of her musical journey with fans. Her collaboration with Lil Yachty is sure to bring a fresh sound, and the anticipation continues to build as the year end approaches.
