SZA

Alternative R&B musician SZA (Solana Rowe) was raised listening to traditional and avant-garde jazz (such as for example Billie Vacation and John Coltrane), substitute (including Björk), and rap (like Wu-Tang Clan). In 2012, she released two EPs as free of charge downloads. Those produces, See.SZA.Work and S, shaped a dreamy, attractive, and occasionally unorthodox launch with beats granted by brandUn DeShay, Felix Snow, APSuperProducer, Dot, Zodiac, and Hassan Insane, amongst others. SZA eventually signed to Best Dawg — house to famous brands Kendrick Lamar and Ab-Soul. A fantasy-like video for the S EP’s “Glaciers Moon” premiered in November 2013. Extra exposure emerged through “His & Her Friend,” a monitor on labelmate ScHoolboy Q’s Oxymoron, released the next Feb. Her digital download-only Z, a trippy ten-track established with aids from Lamar, Opportunity the Rapper, and Isaiah Rashad, arrived a couple weeks later on. In 2016, she produced a significant appearance on Rihanna’s Anti. Another year, she authorized with RCA Information and joined the studio room to record her debut full-length.
