Her team is terrible
she gotta take the blame for that as well, a 2 year song tease, all the starts and stops on the road to this album. that said, SOS gonna get its spins, she'll be fine. she probably should've just dropped the album tho and let fans determine the lead single based on what songs chart/go viral

She puts something out. Gains momentum then does nothing really with it

What did they expect. You release a video with the Shirt snippet at the end, fans go crazy with anticipation...and then you basically disappear for nearly two years. During which the song partially leaks, loops are all over the internet etc etc. And then you release it with a terrible nonsensical video, followed by more silence.

She needs a new team but end of the day a lot of this is on her too. The song's release was delayed because she said she didn't like one scene in the video lol.

bro, she started dropping singles in 2020...then she scrapped the album. she's a notorious perfectionist, even with the video for this song it rolled out late because she wanted to reshoot scenes, that's after two years of making people wait for the full song. SZA is a head case when it comes to her music, and this song in particular is very incongruent, it's got a sexy beat with the most depressing/negative lyrics, like am i supposed to strip tease to this or drink a 5th :pachaha:


i also think she wanted to drop in the summer and clearly they were assuming they'd be working kendrick, plus everyone else, including beyonce, dropped in the summer...but either way, i think her album will be fine, it's just this single aint catch on

Fixed

TDE is the biggest waste of potential ever. Itā€™s ridiculous how many careers theyā€™ve stamped out because theyā€™ve been too lazy to put time into promoting them.
