With her 2017 debut album, ‘CTRL,’ enjoying its 279th print on the Billboard 200 this week (one of the longest-running female R&B albums in history), SZA is finally ready to lift the lid on its long-teased successor.
And, let her tell it, the project may be coming to digital shelves sooner than we think.
Spotted at LAX airport Monday (October 17), the 32-year-old chatted it up with ‘TMZ‘ about the elusive effort (as seen in the video above).
When quizzed about the particulars of the forthcoming LP, she revealed the set is coming “any day,” although she didn’t specify a tentative release date.
“I’m hoping it goes well,” she said of the studio album.
Later asked about how many tunes have been recorded for the yet-titled opus, the GRAMMY winner didn’t shy away from sharing that she’s been putting in major work.
“Total? A hundred, maybe? Like, I don’t even know, actually… Five years worth of material,” she relayed.
Definitely getting her dedicated fans buzzing in the process, the news comes just months after the R&B diva delivered a deluxe re-release of ‘CTRL’ to celebrate its fifth anniversary.
The revamp featured seven previously unreleased tracks including ‘Tread Carefully,’ ‘2 AM,’ ‘Miles,’ and more.

Atp she can just keep it. The wait was too long. Putting out a deluxe edition for a 7yr old album? mmmmmno and summer walker already took her place, plus summers the better singer.
Lmaooo how’d Summer take SZA’s place when she doesn’t even have any top 10, yet alone top 5 hits? SZA has 5, the most recent being this year 😂 SZA has a Grammy too😘
Lying as usual. She should just be a singles artists and call it a day.
