SZA shares multiple artworks for new album LANA.
It’s been one year since SZA released her record-breaking album SOS, and she celebrate the occasion with multiple new artworks for her next offering LANA. Lana is the deluxe release of the album SOS and is scheduled to drop this Fall.
“So the deluxe is like a whole ‘nother album, and it’s called Lana. It’s seven to 10 songs, and it’ll be out this fall,” she said recently at New York’s Brooklyn Navy Yard event.
“It was gonna be [‘SOS’] outtakes and some new songs, but it’s become more than I expected,” she says in a new interview with Variety. “It was gonna be really soft, because I had made all my screaming points, and I just wanted to glide and not think [too much] and get out of my own head — I was so happy to say some sh-t that didn’t mean a f–king thing.”
“It’s definitely turning into its own album… and I guess I could drop a new album randomly, because no one’s actually expecting that from me right now. But I can’t tell if now’s the time to be consistent, or carefree. On the one hand it’s like, ‘What would Beyonce do?,’ but I am also deeply inspired by people who do whatever the f–k they want, like Frank Ocean and Andre 3000. Some of my favorite songs were the ones that I dropped on SoundCloud [early in her career], because it was so stress free.”

On her social media, she also reflected on one year of SOS. “a day late but Happy 1 year anniversary to an album that is ACTIVELY CHANGING MY LIFE .. like rn currently changing my life . I haven’t processed this year AT ALL cause it’s still happening .. this is beyond my wildest dreams . I never imagined we’d accomplish a fraction of the accolades that came from this .. it often doesn’t feel real and it’s funny cause I swore I’d know what to do if it ever happened [laughing emoji] turns out I I froze .. I know the perils of drinking the koolaid so I won’t dabble in that .. but I have to express the immense GRATITUDE I have for every person that made this possible . Every person that’s been apart of this journey. Thank you to GOD and to my incredible TEAM and My FAMILY . My ancestors . Thank you to every person that streamed this album ,came to a show , blasted it in traffic and connected w ANY part of me . To everyone that continues to believe in me and be patient w me as I figure it all out . your my driving force . I love you.”
