Review: SZA’s recent album is an SOS signal for the soul

With hits like “Kill Bill” reaching number two on the Billboard Hot 100 or “Nobody Gets Me” peaking at number 10, SZA’s sophomore album “SOS” has captivated audiences with a chokehold on many R&B fans like me.

In this album SZA explores themes of selfdoubt, insecurity and newfound freedom after a relationship.

The themes from this album are expressed in a catalog of 23 songs that range from Rap to Punk

Rock or ’90s Hip-Hop to Reggae.

SZA broke from the norms of today’s music scene that are conformed to pop music to provide an experience unlike any other.

Some songs from the album that I find myself playing more often than the rest have been “F2F,” “Low” and “Far.”

“F2F” provides a unique flare to “SOS” with being the only song on the album that explored the Punk Rock genre.

Listening to this song created a nostalgic feeling that took me back to simpler times when Fall Out Boy, Panic! at the Disco and My Chemical Romance were all the craze.

This song is an expression of someone having lingering feelings after a breakup and that resentment towards them.

The complex layers of instruments in the song correlate with what could be complex feelings one would have over an ended relationship.

As my second favorite song on the album, “Low” provides a trap-influenced chorus that gets you in the mood to dance.

This song provided me with an unexpected confidence through a heavy beat and a sensation of being in the club.

Its expressions of boundaries between a private romantic life and a public relationship say a lot about limits one must set with one’s partner.

“Far,” the final song I decided to write about, is one of the least streamed songs on the album but it’s also the song I feel the most connected to.

This song is about feeling alone and being taken advantage of.

SZA sings about what it feels like to be unrecognizable to yourself and the feeling of changing who you are for someone else.

The song begins with a conversation between SZA and Sadhguru, the leader of the Isha Foundation, talking about rejection.

When I heard Sadhguru tell SZA “If nobody wants you, you’re free,” I intuitively knew this song was going to be my favorite one.

Overall, I am absolutely in love with “SOS.” With this album I expect SZA to win numerous

The XFL brings in greater crowds than ever before

Ever since the weekend after the Super Bowl, the third iteration of the XFL has been going strong thus far for six weeks.

The fan attendance and the quality of football has been good.

Though it is far from the level of playing that the NFL is currently in, it still allows football fans to enjoy the sport they love the most.

Teams like the San Antonio Brahmas, the St. Louis Battlehawks and the D.C. Defenders have been leading the league in fan turnout which is crucial for a spring football league and its success and capability to be around for future seasons. The rules the XFL has are a mixture of NCAA football and NFL rules with a pinch of their own twist.

This brings more excitement to the game of football and makes the games all the more interesting for fans who show up at the games or tune in at home.

Things like an onside rule which allows the team to attempt to convert a fourth down and 15 in order to keep possession of the ball in a close game as well as their change to the extra point system which does not have the teams kick for an extra point but rather has them run an offensive play from the twoyard line for one point, the five-yard line for two points, or the 10-yard line for three points.

Fan attendance, ratings and quality football are all crucial to the success of this league and the XFL has been able to stay strong in each of those three areas. awards for the upcoming award season. She has proven herself to be a generational talent and someone with a wide range of skills in her pocket.

This league has done what its 2020 predecessor was on the verge of doing and that is cementing itself as the next big football league in the United States.

However there is the threat of competition with the USFL which is kicking off very soon. They’re coming with their own backing by FOX so this looks to potentially be a league rivalry.

For now, we do not know what will come until both leagues are in full swing.

Overall, the XFL looks good and ready for what the future holds.

I highly recommend listening to her album because the experience she has created is like no other.
