SZA, an R&B artist, is experiencing a meteoric rise to fame in 2025, underscored by her Grammy wins and a standout Super Bowl performance alongside Kendrick Lamar.

Her collaboration with Kendrick Lamar on the track "Luther" recently topped the Billboard Hot 100, marking her third number one song.

Looking ahead, SZA and Kendrick Lamar are set to embark on their Grand National Tour, which is anticipated to be one of the major live music events of 2025.

After a five-year hiatus, she released her sophomore album "SOS" in December 2022, which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and has since achieved remarkable commercial success.

The album "SOS" made history by becoming the first R&B/hip-hop album by a woman to spend 12 weeks at number one since Whitney Houston in 1986, featuring hits like "Kill Bill."

Her 2023 international tour for "SOS," along with multiple Grammy wins—including Best R&B Song for "Snooze"—marked a significant period of success for SZA.

Prior to this, her debut album "Ctrl," released in June 2017, broke records by becoming the longest-charting female album on the Billboard 200, remaining on the chart for an impressive 378 weeks.

In addition to her music career, SZA made her acting debut in the film "One of Them Days," which opened in first place at the box office during Martin Luther King Jr. weekend.

"Ctrl" received critical acclaim and featured popular tracks such as "Drew Barrymore" and "The Weekend," helping to reshape the R&B genre.

SZA's journey began in the early 2010s with independent music releases on SoundCloud, which eventually led to her signing with Top Dawg Entertainment.

In 2024, SZA released the hit song "Saturn" and a deluxe version of her album "SOS," titled "Lana," further solidifying her status in the music industry.
