SZA recently spoke out about her music being categorized into one genre and opened up about how that can lead to keeping her into a box. While speaking with Dazed in an article that was published on Wednesday the singer spoke about how she’s not a fan of labels.
“The only reason I’m defined as an R&B artist is because I’m Black,” the New Jersey singer said. “It’s almost a little reductive because it doesn’t allow space to be anything else or try anything else. Justin Bieber is not considered an R&B artist; he is a pop artist who makes R&B, folk music, or whatever his heart desires. “I simply just want to be allowed the same opportunity to make whatever I want without a label, [without it being] based on the colour of my skin, or the crew that I run with, or the beats that I choose. I want “FTF” to be seen as what it is. I want “Nobody Gets Me” to be seen as what it is. I want “Kill Bill” to be seen as what it is.”

She added: “At the same time, it’s nothing to get bent out of shape about, because it’s just how people are processing you. As long as I don’t process myself that way. I don’t necessarily box myself into anything. I’m just trying to make music, trying to vibe out and enjoy the experience.”
Despite SZA’s reservations about her portrayal in the music industry, she remains appreciative of her fans who acknowledge her talent. Recently, she thanked her supporters for helping her recognize the brilliance of her song “Snooze,” which she initially didn’t fully appreciate.
“I’m not gon lie snooze wasn’t my favorite when I made the album but now it’s my favorite hands down,” she wrote on social media. “played it at the beach and it was noiiiiiiceeeee [teary eyed emoji]. I’m late but thank y’all for riding til I got some sense [laughing, heart hands and heart emoji]”
