For many, SZA‘s ‘The Weekend’ sits nicely amongst the likes of Usher‘s ‘Burn‘ and Ciara‘s ‘Promise’ as one of the strongest R&B gems to drop within the last two decades.

Unfortunately, this week has seen the song’s epic critical run hit a snag.

On the receiving end of unfair criticism? The visual’s director Solange.

As one of the most recognizable faces on BRAVO’s ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ franchise and one-fourth of the veteran R&B group XScape, singer/songwriter Kandi Burruss is easily one of the hardest working women in show business.  Add to that her successful line of adult toys, ‘Bedroom Kandi,’ TV and music production credits, and a recently announced forthcoming stint on Broadway (click here to read more), and we’re one of many starting to wonder if the girl ever gets any sleep.

Curious about what she shared?  See it inside if you missed it this morning:
