She continued, “My home girl actually showed me Alessia [Cara]’s post and I thought, This is really crazy. I just didn’t know how to take it. I didn’t say anything, I didn’t post, because I’ve never had to deal with anything I really believed in wholeheartedly, or invested in, and went through something that publicly before. I wanted to be honest as f**k, and if today I’m just mad as h*ll, I don’t want to say something that reflects me being mad as h*ll. But I definitely feel blessed now. I also don’t feel compelled to explain myself.”
- SZA added, “If anything, I feel compelled to express that I really, really f**k with Alessia Cara. She’s beautiful as f**k, her voice is like water, it’s like milk, I think it’s gorgeous. It has so much dimension, and she deserves every accolade that she gets. And people can’t be mad. I don’t give a f**k when her album came out! She sounds great right now! So, like, it’s over. You have to just move over and be grateful for the sh*t that did happen in your favor. I didn’t make my album with the Grammys in mind, and I’m definitely not gonna make my second one with the Grammys in mind. I’m just gonna make really good f**king music and just try to touch people.”
