SZA - "Z" (Official Discussion Thread)

[HARLEM AL]

I'm not really feeling it. The beats sound off. I fukk with some of the spaced out r&b shyt. This shyt isn't good.

As for her being better than Jhene aiko, get the fukk outta here.

this is actually more trance/trip hop, haven't really listened to her before so i had no clue she was in that lane. i think it was ok, but i actually listen to a lot of chill/downtempo/trance/trip hop and this project is underwhelming thus far. i need to give it a fair listen in the afternoon when i'm more in the mood for something like this, but her sound doesn't compete with people who do this well like roses gabor, von d, ftse, etc.

will check this when i get a chance

This is ill, reminds me of some Bjork shyt

 

[Killer Instinct]

Going to listen off of the strength of Green Mile.

I'm a check this shyt out, but anybody acting like her songs are just all amazing is full of shyt. Bish be singing off-beat and if it weren't for the TDE cosign nobody would give a fukk about her music.

Let's be real about it.

 

[Still FloW]

Been hearing nothing but good reviews for this... Need to check it out

Chance The Rapper shoulda got Ab Soul on that track

 

[criminology]

Wow they used an XXYYXX track for Child's Play. That was one of my favorite non hip hop albums from 2012. Nice to hear it in another context.

kid was 16 when he made that album

 

[Kool Herc]

DOPE

 

[T-K-G]

I would be surprised if he didn't, it's just that some songs don't need rappers and I feel that his verse brought down the feel/vibe of SZA's singing of insecurities and confusion.

thank you there are plenty of dope tracks by female and male singers that rappers just straight up ruin because rap doesn't fit the overall vibe of the track, the booth is the last placed i'd expect to see someone else actually say it tho

 

[GoldenGlove]

Yeah, this just ain't connecting with me. And I don't have a problem listening to women artists, but this chick's music just doesn't sound that good to me.

 

[kingdarius]

its a decent/good album ...she has a lot of "background vocals" tracks tho, where the beat just takes over the song and u can barely hear wat she saying and shyt but they're still decent the song "julia" is a example and yet that might be my favorite track ....she's a solid pickup for TDE but on niccas sayin she on jhene lvl :boloufdup:
