SZA New Album Thoughts? I don't know if I like it or what. Something about her voice. I saw her a few years ago live and felt the same kinda way, almost ambivalent. I want to be excited by her music. if it was just a dream, call me a dreamer 2 | |

I am just lukewarm to her and almost all the ballyhooed women of modern R&B including Lennox, Sullivan, and Aiko among others. Each time, I read the great reviews I stream the release with anticipation only to be disappointed. I think SZA is somehwat talented. However, like most of her peers, she has a very limited vocal range, avoids melodic phrasing most of the time, and doesn't convey an ounce of soulfulness in her voice. Whatever happened to soul music!? |

It's good, it builds upon what she did the last record and there are some moments that I really really like (Far, Good Days, Nobody Gets Me, Kill Bill). It also suffers from a few things: the vibe is pretty depressing and a big downer. If you are particularly happy or benign in your life, SZA will be hard to get into on a normal day nevermind this album (which is a breakup album). It also suffers from the Tik Tokification/Streamification of it all with most songs being shorter than 3 minutes. I really hate that. | |
