SZA, 34, just finished a whirlwind of concerts in London, Chicago, and Montréal. After all that hustle, she announced on Monday that she’s taking a breather from performing live. She tweeted, ‘Yesterday was my last show for a while. Finally [about] to get my life together thank [you] God.’
She’s got a massive social media following—39 million to be exact—and she’s taking this moment to focus on herself. SZA shared a video of herself dancing at a Montréal nightclub post-concert, where DJ Kaytranada ‘played the craziest set.’
On Instastory, SZA hinted at her future plans, saying, ‘Lock me in a studio on the beach ASAP.’ This suggests that new music could be on the way, which has fans buzzing.
The singer, who has ADHD and anxiety, has teased two singles, ‘Saturn’ and ‘Cry Baby,’ from her upcoming third studio album, ‘Lana.’ The album is expected to drop later this year.
Born Solána Imani Rowe, the Missouri native isn’t performing live again until November when she’s scheduled to hit stages in Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates.
SZA is also diving into acting, with a role opposite Keke Palmer in an upcoming buddy comedy. They first met during her SNL performance in 2022.
SZA is up for five Moonperson trophies at the 2024 MTV VMAs, including Artist of the Year. Her hit single ‘Snooze’ snagged nods for Video of the Year and Best R&B.
She also collaborated with Drake and Sexyy Red on the track ‘Rich Baby Daddy,’ which is in the running for Best Collaboration and Best Hip Hop at the VMAs.
With her announcement, SZA has left fans eagerly awaiting her next moves—both in the studio and on the silver screen.
Until November, SZA’s fans will have to wait and see what’s next from this multi-talented artist.
