SZA’s long-awaited deluxe edition of her Grammy-winning 2022 album SOS, titled “Lana,” is finally here. The album has survived a long series of false alarms – it seemed imminent back in February when she released the song “Saturn” – and features similar artwork to the insect and forest images she featured during her tours last summer, but it’s finally here. diversityThe full review of the album will be out this weekend.

The album features Kendrick Lamar on the track “30 for 30” (SZA can be heard on two songs from his current “GNX” album) and Lil Yachty and Benny Blanco each produced one song. Her collaborators on the other songs are mostly “SOS” producers and writers such as Michael Uzowuru, ThankGod4Cody, Rob Bisel, Carter Lang and others.

On Thursday night, she previewed the album with a video for the song “Drive” featuring Ben Stiller. The full tracklist for “Lana” appears below:

SZA’s upcoming stadium tour with Kendrick Lamar presents an excellent opportunity to release new material – she’s been touring behind “SOS” since its release two years ago.

The latest round of teasers began a week ago, on the two-year anniversary of “SOS,” with a short video trailer that included a snippet of one of the album’s tracks. The video shows SZA in a natural setting, pulling down her baggy camouflage pants to pee by a stream. She looks directly into the camera before pulling a tissue out of her pocket to wipe herself as the words “Lana” appear on the screen. Her lyrics go: “You know we got a real story/That’s why I can’t choose/You know that dick was good to me/You make it hard for me to choose.”

While SZA has talked about a deluxe edition of “SOS” since the album’s release, she explained the album and its contents diversity in August last year: “(‘Lana’) consists of outtakes (from ‘SOS’) and also new stuff – I added a few songs. It’s like a whole new project. It’s called “Lana” – my name, but it’s the first tattoo I ever got when I was 13. It was $10 a letter and I only had 40, so that became my nickname for no reason. “Lana” is actually just the B-side of SOS.”

The album seemed imminent in February when she released “Saturn,” but just a few weeks later, SZA became frustrated with fans leaking songs and posted that she was “restarting ‘Lana’ from scratch” because ” you leaked three songs of hers.” the deluxe.” She continued, “At this point you can keep the throwaways and leaks. I’m going to start “Lana” from the beginning. Don’t ask me about it again,” adding a few minutes later, “I’ll summarize the leaks you already have and you can have these.” Seems like a fair deal. ENJOY.” That tweet was deleted shortly afterwards. In a subsequent series of tweets, she said that the deluxe edition of SOS will now contain “the leaks and outtakes” and that “Lana” will be its own album. “Lana deserves more time and music no one has ever heard before,” she wrote, however, she seems to have returned to her previous plan.
