SZA Hints That She’ll Be Dropping Multiple Unreleased Songs From The ‘Ctrl’ Sessions This Week

Now that Kendrick Lamar has ended his five-year album hiatus with the release of Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, we can devote our thirst and full attention to another TDE Records artist who is approaching the five-year mark: SZA. This Thursday, June 9th, will mark the five-year anniversary of when the “Love Galore” singer dropped her breakthrough album, Ctrl, and SZA has hinted that she’s ready to share a batch of unreleased tunes from that era to celebrate the occasion.

In a Monday tweet, SZA posted simply, “Unreleased songs from 2017 to celebrate 5 .. me thinks .” Hmm…ok. This would be a nice little precursor to a supposed new album this summer. At the Met Gala in early May, SZA told Vogue that, “The album’s finally ready to go — more than I’ve ever felt before. So this summer, it’ll be a SZA summer.” A drop of tracks from the Ctrl sessions would be like putting on a fresh coat of sunscreen before it gets really hot.

Meanwhile, SZA is set to make a slew of festival appearances this summer. Earlier today, she was just announced as a headliner for the Day N Vegas festival in September with J Cole and Travis Scott. She’s also atop the bill at San Francisco’s Outside Lands Festival in August with Green Day and Post Malone.

Some artists covered here are Warner Music artists. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.
