SZA earned her first career nominations at the 60th GRAMMY Awards for Best New Artist, Best Urban Contemporary Album (Ctrl), Best R&B Song (“Supermodel”), Best Rap/Sung Performance (“Love Galore”) and Best R&B Performance (“The Weekend”).
At what age did SZA get famous?
She was 25, and she had been putting out EPs as SZA (say it like “scissor”) since 2012, when rapper/producer Terrence “Punch” Henderson stumbled across some early tracks and signed her up to Top Dawg Entertainment, the label that’s also home to Kendrick Lamar, Isaiah Rashad and Schoolboy Q.
Did Rihanna steal consideration from SZA?
“Consideration” was reportedly intended for SZA’s CTRL album, but was ultimately given to Rihanna for Anti. SZA told Kerwin that the original version sounds much different, and that it may appear on the follow-up to CTRL.
