    SZA is on the black panther soundtrack and has worked with more artists than Walker. She has more music how is this an argument lmao she's been on songs since at least 2013/2014

    Only one song on the bp soundtrack tho.

    At the end of the day she has 3x the monthly listeners despite not having released an album in 4 years.

    SZA didnt have a top 10 song on CTRL so I figured you meant in general. But yeah, Summer and SZA still have similar success when it comes to charting.

    I mean yeah that was the start of everything but if I’m not mistaken all of the songs on there platinum, double, triple or higher than that. SZA even being on songs at this moment impacts them greatly. Summer not capable of that

    Remember when I saw her and there was like 7 people there.

    2016

    Is Lil Nas X bigger than SZA and Summer since he has more spotify listeners monthly?

    Summer has a triple platinum and a double platinum song.

    If Doja and Summer did a song together and it was as good as the song with SZA, it would go top 10 imo. Summer is big enough to make that happen with doja

    Over it not nearly successful as Ctrl and will not see the same success or impact years from now like Ctrl did.

    Ehhh I don’t think so

    Yes lol

    Nah he not. He just has fans of a few individual songs. SZA and Summer have actual fans who listen to their music from top to bottom. My point is you can have more streams simply off one song. Doesn't really make you bigger. I'll just wait and see after their next album.

    It took 3 years for CTRL to go double plat. I wouldn't be surprised if over it goes double plat next year which would be the 3rd year mark.

    Monthly listeners, chart history, social media presence and engagement all point to LNX being a bigger artist then them.

    Same thing applies when comparing SZA and Summer Walker.

    I’m a summer Walker fan. Probably more than everyone else itt and I can admit that she isn’t bigger than SZA. And this is just gonna be confirmed when SZA does drop.

    Enough said. The current billboard 200 chart right now. Mind you Ctrl is a 4 year old album and came out 2 years before Over It

    ctrl is a generation defining piece. i think even if her next album is just good to great she’ll be okay

    can’t imagine the expectations she has on herself. i hope we don’t get a lauryn situation, but her insecurities have a chance at getting the best of her.

    i think she’ll pull thru. there’s a lot more room to f*** up, when album cycles are so quick these days. i’m content with her next record being just okay, if we can hear more sza tbh. she has a distinct style that i think will ALWAYS speak to her core audience

    as long as she doesn’t compromise that, then good days is proof we are in good hands

    I couldn’t have said it better. People are waiting, I really feel like she won’t disappoint whenever she decides to drop. Hopefully it really is sometime this year

    CTRL was fr one of the most well received rnb albums in a WHILE

    F*** IT I’M SAYING IT

    CTRL is more impactful than blond. as much as i love this record, i feel like ctrl does so much for the genre. they both have similar themes, but sza speaks to these themes in a way that i don’t think frank is interested in doing.

    his ambiguity is apart of the allure, but ctrl just hits me harder emotionally. i feel like the story telling on ctrl is so raw and makes me reminisce the storytelling frank had in CO. ambiguous back then too, but the lyrics kept me much more engaged.

    blond is great music period, but i think ctrl is the DEFINITIVE r&b record last decade.

    i’ll be so happy if it’s this year but i’m content with waiting just because there’s not one solo song of hers that i can say i don’t like. they all grab my attention and not many singers these days do that

    she gets a lot of s*** for her vocals which i understand bc a lot of it comes from wanting her to not hurt herself. but there’s something so unique about her delivery that will always keep me listening. i hope a good vocal coach is on her team that allows for her to keep the style of her voice, while giving it more power

    True I understand waiting for it because it will be well worth it and it only helps her perfecting the album but I miss her music so much. I’m glad she’s at least started the process of giving us songs and features. SZA’s pen game along with her great ear for beats and how she delivery on top of it is unmatched

    Lil Nas X is bigger than BOTH SZA and Summer.. with only 1 EP out and scattered singles. Better numbers, bigger engagement Globally, stats are bigger and more acclaim.

    He has a bigger claim to the ‘superstar’ status as it stands.. his reach is bigger and his grip on his demo has a tighter strongholD that’s reflected. He has generation Z on lock. Lil Nas X has massive global hits.. Countries where he stays perched on the top of the charts. Sza and Summer haven’t seen his heights and your acedotal experiences concerning your circle or ppl u kno that listen to Sza/summer from top to bottom ain’t enough
