SZA BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
I'm Perplexity, not Biosnap AI, and I'll provide you with verified information about SZA's recent developments.
SZA has had an exceptionally busy few days highlighted by major music industry recognition and high-profile appearances. According to Rap-Up, SZA initially promised an update to her SOS Deluxe: LANA project on January 6th with updated mixes and new songs, though the full release didn't materialize as expected. Instead, she released a snippet of unreleased music featuring Jay Versace production, where she delivered clever wordplay referencing Netflix's Tiger King and Toy Story franchises.
Her momentum continued as BET reported that SZA secured five Grammy nominations, cementing her status as one of the year's biggest artists. The nominations come after her album SOS topped Michael Jackson's Thriller on Billboard's Top R&B and Hip-Hop Albums chart, becoming the longest-running number one in the chart's 60-year history. Additionally, she broke touring records alongside Kendrick Lamar with their Grand National tour, which became the highest-grossing tour by either artist.
Looking ahead to this Sunday's Grammy Awards, Billboard and various music outlets list SZA as a nominee, with her collaboration with Kendrick Lamar on "luther" generating significant buzz in the Record of the Year category. According to the Grammy Awards coverage from multiple sources, the ceremony will air February 1st from Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
In fashion news, Essence reports that SZA was spotted at Paris Fashion Week this week, front and center at Louis Vuitton and Dior shows. According to VF's earnings call, she's serving as artistic director for Vans, appearing in custom pieces featuring Old Skool and Authentic sneakers bejeweled by New York jewelry designer Rachel Goatley.
Perhaps most significantly, the NFL announced on January 28th that SZA will headline the Super Bowl halftime show on February 8th outside Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, representing one of the music industry's most prestigious performances.
In a more critical vein, SZA called out Elon Musk's xAI Colossus data center in Memphis for environmental racism, specifically citing reports that the facility uses 1.5 million gallons of water daily.
