SZA Says ‘SOS’ Deluxe Will Have 10 Additional Tracks

SZA says more SOS is on the way. She revealed to Billboard that the deluxe edition of her LP will include 10 additional tracks. The New Jersey native was crowned the publication's Woman Of The Year. SZA noted that she was awestruck by the amount of love SOS has received.

"Right now, I just have extreme gratitude because I swear to God, I never thought I’d be No. 1 for even a week, let alone seven," the singer said.

SZA's sophomore project debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 where it has remained since its December inception. SOS has already spent nine nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 and is looking at its 10th week at the top spot for next week. SZA made history as the first woman in seven years to keep the stop spot since Adele's 25 ran for 10 non-consecutive weeks, according to the publication. The album is already certified platinum by the RIAA with several singles already with platinum and gold plaques, including "Good Day," "Kill Bill," "I Hate U," "Blind," "Shirt," and "Low." However, the R&B star is not done quite yet. She revealed to Billboard that her deluxe version is "soon" to be released with 10 additional tracks.

"After I do the deluxe, I’m hoping to be able to accept that this chapter is done," SZA said. "I’m looking forward to actually feeling proud of myself and not just smiling and nodding at accolades but really feeling it internally and knowing that I’m good enough."

She added: "I guess I need to stop trying to figure out what it means and start realizing and living in what it is."

After her appearance as a presenter for the 65th Annual Grammy Awards, SZA went to Instagram to take in all of her success from SOS thus far as she shared photos of her RIAA certifications.

"Last night was the first time I had a great time at an award show ! (Prolly cause I ain’t have to do s--- but cheer my friends on + announce ppl I Stan lmao )," she captioned her post. "My team also surprised me w a GANG OF PLATINUM and gold plaques for SOS can’t believe the album is already eligible for double platinum. LOVE TO EVERYBODY THAT GOT ME HERE AND CONTINUES TO LIFT ME UP. I love you."

An official release date for the deluxe edition of SOS has yet to be announced.

It's the New Year and we've already heard a bunch of great new hip-hop and R&B. In January, there have been offerings from A$AP Rocky, Chlöe Bailey, Ice Spice, J. Cole, and more. Take a look at some of the best hip-hop and R&B releases of the year so far:

For her debut EP, Like..? Ice Spice tapped in fellow Bronx rapper Lil Tjay for "Gangsta Boo." The track sample's Diddy's "I Need a Girl (Part 2)." "Gangsta Boo" is Ice Spice's first Billboard Hot 100 chart entry at #82.

Quavo pours his heart out on the emotional tribute to the late Takeoff on "Without You." In the music video, Quavo is seen smoking in the studio as the track plays behind him. This is Quavo's first song since Takeoff's death on Nov. 1, 2022.

On the anniversary of A$AP Yams’ death (Jan. 15), A$AP Rocky released his first single of 2023, titled "Same Problems?" The track pays tribute to those who’ve recently died. In the song, he calls out the intention of actually getting involved to stop senseless killings in the community.

"Pray It Away" finds Chlöe regretting a previous relationship and wanting to focus on healing. The song is part of her rollout leading to her debut LP In Pieces which is set to be released in March.

J. Cole surprised fans by dropping "Procrastination (Broke)" to a Brooklyn producer's YouTube channel this month. In the song, Cole raps about still having the habit of putting things off in adulthood.

Cordae and Anderson .paak teamed up for their latest single "Two Tens." In the music video, both artists are seen in the club rapping back and forth in conversation about two friends. J. Cole and Dem Jointz produced the song.

In "Sucka Or Sum" Rae Sremmurd raps about refusing to be played. SremmLife 4 doesn't have a release date but the sibling duo will most likely have this track on the long-awaited album.

Midwxst and Denzel Curry teamed up for "Tally" this month. Just like the artists, the music video gives a unique twist on the 1942 classic film Casablanca.

Trippie Redd taps in a posthumous feature from JuiceWRLD on "Knight Crawler." This track appears on Trippie Redd's album Mansion Musik that debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart.

"If I Stop Now" is just one of the singles EST Gee has dropped in 2023. The Louisville native also released "Blow Up" on January 27. "If I Stop Now," is more of a melodic rap song from him where he addresses his mental health in contrast to his fame. "Blow Up" has an opposite vibe with booming 808s.
