SZA BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

SZA has been at the center of extraordinary buzz these past few days thanks to a whirlwind mix of music, public drama, record-breaking milestones, and headline-grabbing appearances. On August 4, SZA lit up Instagram Stories with a revealing studio clip that immediately triggered speculation among fans about new music. The timing is especially juicy given her highly publicized online spat with Nicki Minaj, with fans on X openly theorizing that SZA might be crafting a fiery diss track in response to Minaj’s string of pointed tweets aimed at her looks, career, and authenticity. SZA’s own rebuttal on X was calm yet pointed, clarifying that her earlier comments about Mercury retrograde weren’t targeting anyone and revealing she had once contributed a line to Minaj’s 2014 hit “Feeling Myself.” As Cosmopolitan reports, SZA further claimed that Minaj’s team twice approached her for features but was turned down, adding another layer to their public feud.

Beneath the social media heat, SZA's career momentum is unmistakable. Billboard and HOT 97 recently confirmed her Grammy-winning sophomore album “SOS” just became the second most-streamed album by a female artist in Spotify history, trailing only behind pop royalty. This enduring success—three years after release—has positioned the album as a landmark achievement, supported by nine Grammy nominations and a North American tour grossing more than 100 million dollars, ranking her alongside Beyoncé, Tina Turner, and Rihanna for touring milestones.

If you’re seeking news beyond the studio and Twitter drama, SZA’s Grand National Tour with Kendrick Lamar continues to thrill crowds worldwide, with recent stops in Warsaw and a standout Los Angeles concert where SZA surprised fans by bringing Lizzo onstage for their remix of “Special.” The event drew heartfelt praise between longtime friends, with Lizzo gushing on Instagram about her “baby’s first stadium performance” and SZA lauding their friendship and collaboration.

Fashion headlines followed as SZA posted a bold selfie in a sheer lace bodysuit, captioned “Spent some time alone,” sparking additional chatter across social media and reinforcing her status as a style icon. As for professional business developments, AfroTech spotlights her lucrative 70/30 split record deal with Top Dawg Entertainment and RCA, offering her an unusually high cut of the profits—a testament to her team’s strategic positioning in the industry.

Speculation is running hot about possible new music and upcoming UK performances in 2025, although nothing is confirmed. One thing is certain: whether it’s music, memes, or mogul moves, every headline proves SZA isn’t just trending—she’s making history.
