Solána Imani Rowe, known professionally as SZA, is an American singer-songwriter. Known for her diaristic lyrics and genre explorations, she has been credited as a prominent figure in influencing contemporary R&B music and popularizing alternative R&B.
SZA first garnered attention with her self-released extended plays See.SZA.Run and S. The projects led her to sign with Top Dawg Entertainment in 2013, through which she released her third EP, Z. Her alternative R&B-imbued debut studio album, Ctrl, was a critical and commercial success. It earned four Grammy Award nominations in 2018, and became the second longest-charting R&B album by a woman on the US Billboard 200. Her top-ten 2018 single "All the Stars" with Kendrick Lamar earned her Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations for Best Original Song. SZA's feature on Doja Cat's "Kiss Me More" in 2021 won them their first Grammy Award.
SZA experimented with several genres like rock, hip-hop, and pop on her second studio album, SOS. It has spent thirteen weeks at number one on the Billboard 200, broke several chart records, and set an achievement for the largest streaming week for an R&B album in the US.
