SZA shared a teaser video starring Ben Stiller on Instagram on Tuesday (December 17) to reveal that her long-awaited new album, Lana, is set to drop this Friday (Dec. 20). In the clip, Stiller is singing along to a new SZA song, “Drive,” which is presumably the lead single from the new project. The release of Lana will come almost exactly two years after the release of SZA’s Grammy-winning album, SOS, which dropped on December 9, 2022. Rather than a standalone new record, Lana will serve as a deluxe edition companion album to SOS, with additional new songs and unheard tracks left over from the previous recording sessions. “[‘Lana’] is outtakes [from ‘SOS’] and new stuff, too — I added a couple of songs,” SZA teased to Variety way back in 2023. “It’s like a whole new project. It’s called ‘Lana’ — my name but, it’s the first tattoo that I ever got, when I was 13. It was 10 bucks a letter and I only had 40, so that became my nickname for no reason. ‘Lana’ is really just the B-side of SOS.” (Variety)
