SZA has shared that she will make her acting debut on a forthcoming project, details of which have yet to be announced.
The R&B star told fans about the new development in her career in a recent post on her Instagram Story.
âCanât believe I got the part I wanted,â SZA wrote. âSheâs an actress.â The post also included a cake that had been gifted to her that read: âCongrats record breaker and fire actress.â
Hot New Hip-Hop reports that the musician later added: âLmao thank yâall! And before yâall start somebody BOUGHT me this cake. Itâs a sweet gesture n i was being appreciative.â
Last week (December 17), SZA broke Apple Musicâs R&B streaming record with âI Hate Uâ. The official release of the track scored the biggest first-week streams of all-time on the platform for an R&B song by a female artist.
âI Hate Uâ was originally released in demo form back in August, alongside âNightbirdâ and âJoniâ, on an anonymously through a SoundCloud account named â.â, which SZA later confirmed the songs were hers by tweeting out a link to the account and saying she was âdumping random thoughtsâ.
The official version was put out after the track went viral on TikTok. âHonestly this started out as an exercise. I just wanted somewhere to dump my thoughts w out pressure,â SZA wrote on Instagram before the songâs release. âYâall made it a thing and Iâm not mad lmao. Ask and u shall receive.â
Itâs currently unclear whether âI Hate Uâ will feature on the follow-up to SZAâs debut album âCTRLâ. In July, the star joked that sheâd considered scrapping work on her new record and âstarting from scratchâ.
