[@LinnaXO_]

I love her to death💕

[@ajbbbbb125]

i love how she checked them right away and said dont be misogynistic.. I think that's important. good for her

[@luvtay8804]

When did she say that

[@ajbbbbb125]

Literally a few minutes into the video.

[@Malc230692]

Meh whatever she did doesn't give anyone a license to just talk about her body and shit in her presence if she doesn't want it. Stop the shit

[@queendeebs2562]

you sound bitter sis.

[@janinekrol4327]

alexandria blumberg that moment stuck out to me.

[@pels4tosh]

Ebro reminds me of that one nigga in high school that thinks people still care about him years later

[@missmarionlewis]

[@Jazmeyne]

this is EXACTLY it. You got it so damn right!

[@janinekrol4327]

"You're totally allowed to be ignorant and misogynistic, just not on my time." #facts

[@aculturacionsin9852]

People who say idk a lot tend to be very intelligent , they have a lot to say so their brain works so fast so it makes it hard to articulate everything , and if she has ADHD that's x10 I'm the same way I can relate to this girl

[@janinekrol4327]

I relate to this so much

[@amaraistired]

this is me.

[@shailamceady813]

Aaron colon absolutely my life!

[@TanashaLynne]

Right! Intelligent and they absolutely do know

[@queendesire6283]

This exactly me

[@callummurphy7170]

"i'm not comfortable playing any role, i think i'm comfortable being myself and if people attach to any part of that in a healthy way and feel supported then i'm down to be a part of that." thought that was really well put. love siz

[@leebishop7591]

SZA is this young generation's Badu. shes the truth. music is the truth. cant wait to see and hear her grow.

[@ThaSweetHart]

Lee Dragon Don't do that to her. She's SZA and great in her own right.

[@cristobalbalenciaga7295]

She’s not, thay just look like each other. But erica is erica and sza is sza..

[@Cherrybaby12]

Lee Dragon is simply saying she's this gen's Badu as an artist who is real, eclectic and beautiful WITH talent.... geez

[@charity9660]

Lee Dragon how

[@gardenoflaina]

No. Go check Badu’s twitter when someone said this lolololol Smh y’all too much on the comparisons

[@amarieh2002]

As a bushy haired, big lipped, full black girl she is so refreshing to see

[@ms.coleman8403]

amarieh2002 yass👏👏👏👏👏

[@Vimeo1x]

She is destined for greatness! AND 100% deserves all of it!

[@meghanhughes]

that jhene show in LA was the first time I ever saw sza perform! I swear to god that was the best concert I've ever been to to this day! willow smith & the internet opened up too & SO many guests came out... Gambino, schoolboy q, chris brown... I could go on! tightest show ever

[@hot97]

+Meghan Hughes thanks for the feedback

A dream 😭 wish I could’ve been there!

[@narcisoanasui246]

Sounds amazing

[@jonvenanzi5951]

SZA is roxanne from the goofy movie

[@Reneg8d_Ren]

Jon Venanzi she really does remind me of her! 💕

[@bornwithclass2365]

Jon Venanzi yes. I Love this comment..

[@crossing.the.cosmos84]

Nah..I imagine Roxanne being personified as a much daintier( not saying she isnt) gentle person. SZA has edge, spunk , moxy and swag. I see Roxanne just being a very sweet sugary girl... Maybe Alessia Cara would be a better match.

[@brianna1350]

"Go Gina, Go Gina" 🎶🎤One of my favorite songs off the album

[@trapbradshaw7627]

Bri.V.M. The Weekend is the best

[@aprillindsey7225]

Bri.V.M. that and Drew Barrymore, and..fuckit All of it!

[@freeleonardpeltier4148]

Bri.V.M. same.

[@teresal5375]

I think shes afraid of failure that's why she doesn't want to be looked at in a certain light...its ok to claim that pedestal and then fail girl your human!

[@sherbear1914]

story of my life that's what happens when you have parents with such high expectations

[@janinekrol4327]

[@GoogleAccount00]

Dank Midget right

[@jaguarjay25]

Richh T I was about to say the same thing lol, after ALLLLLL the press she's done THIS is the realest interview? OK hot 97 lol

[@cnrivers]

I just wanna try to pull off glossy eyelids now

[@Livelaughloveadorn]

Ona Salvat I keep looking at her eyelids thinking the same lol. But I have oily skin so not sure how that will work out lol

[@chardaishanta9313]

Ona Salvat someone asked her on twitter how she got glossy eyelids & she said she just put her "Chanel lip gloss" on them.. I'm not sure if the lip gloss is by Chanel or that's the name of it tho 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@blaze262332]

which ones are the best ?

[@mapletown11]

I liked the Sway interview the best. Big Boy's Neighberhood was good too.

[@fatou8011]

the breakfast cub interview was amazing rewatched it after listening to her album

[@FrenchiJ]

After she checked him on not being "salacious" during the interview, he couldn't let it go! Word of the day: Salacious

[@ms.coleman8403]

Frenchi' J. I am glad she checked him . He is annoying

[@Thesjohddii]

[@rafinhaipsep]

TDE first lady bad as fuck!

Raphael Carmo Instead of being a thirsty nigga you should listen to her album as well you just might become more thirsty after it

[@Kirko296]

Raphael Carmo true as fuck

[@fitchgirl02]

Hahaha this is funny. We don't have one for Soul though? Can't remember what he says most.

[@CCG-rg5ku]

If you cant understand what she's saying then you aren't really listening. Sza is new to this whole interview shit. So don't expect her to be a pro. She is confused just as we are. She just dropped her first ever album. First ever album to really be able to actually know the real sza without sugar coating. She's being 100. She is growing. Its alot of pressure for her. So hello, THIS IS SZA EVERYONE. If you cant respect that then move on.

[@ggmanziel6383]

What are you yelling for

[@monika1885]

Ezail12 EMPHASIS

[@ebony3155]

lmaooo CTRL is not her first album, it's just the first album YOU heard by sza because you were probably following the hype.

[@999kamile]

C.C G not her first album... but of course most ignorants think that since she’s just recently been playing on the radio

[@queendesire6283]

C.C G she actually has three albums House Since 09 I’ve been pkayingbger since limewire was out and one of her albums where wit pink roses on it look her in this usntbget first album and she had mixtapes but it was mire of a disclosure type vibe not hip or r&b I love both !!

CTRL is so fucking good TDE CAN DO NO WRONG

True lmao

[@BUDGETBALLER]

Man I like Hot97 but fuck that title lol

[@misspacino868]

BUDGET BALLER why do you say that lol

[@adriannagoyette7839]

I love that she's still growing and we get to see that now, it makes her music so much more real to me because this is the stage in an artist's life where they're getting all these new experiences and the emotion is so raw and real. I can feel her spirit when I listen to her speak and sing. That's not to say I can't wait to see what's in store. This woman is my inspiration as an aspiring artist who herself is also struggling with the emotional and psychological struggle of growing up and going through changes and dealing with anxiety as well, it's so overwhelming sometimes to picture your ideal future as an artist when you're going through this but watching and listening to SZA really channels that for me and makes it seem feasible. I'm so appreciative of her for this.

[@ItsMadQueen]

SZA you are a Scorpio. When we mad we mad, when we sad we sad. There is no gray area dear lol

[@jzloveinfinite]

TheMadQueen88 yaaaaasssss!

[@Angelkid190]

TheMadQueen88 I'm a Scorpio too but I wish I was a Leo or a Virgo.

[@nazzswift8114]

[@keikei1943]

@@Angelkid190 being a Leo is a rocky trip i kinda hate being one.. the traits are unbearing

[@gorgeous1043]

Very true

[@datcat1981]

SZA seemed so disconnected in this interview. I've seen her like a million interviews this week think she must have been hella pooped but the album is a classic. If you haven't listened to it already go do it, it speaks for itself.

[@ms.coleman8403]

Dat Cat nope the vibe of ebro throws her off. He is wack

[@ArielCotton]

She was uncomfortable

[@flawlesslawless4180]

She been doing interviews all day week prior to her album release

[@ninaedwards345]

Dat Cat Ebro makes everyone uncomfortable

[@ProphetsOfRockTV]

Watching every sza interview and loving life.

[@IndigoChild007]

Prophets Of Rock TV same

[@timaratw]

What I think is gonna happen in the interview before watching it: Ebro is gonna compliment her looks and say inappropriate crap that has NOTHING to do with her music. Rosenberg is gonna put Ebro in his place. Laura is gonna talk about the female perspective. I haven't watched them in a few because I was sick of the way they treated female artist/entertainers. It was like their music wasn't discussed as opposed to their sex life and crap like that. Correct me if I'm wrong lol. Give me another perspective😂😂. Sorry for my lil rant

[@poppinlilsyn4014]

Is it only me but is sza’s vioce satisfying

[@databae2428]

I can relate to the bi-religious thing. I was Christian when living with my mom, and when I would visit my dad on every other weekend i was Muslima..

[@NotTheOneAtAll]

Loved the album so soulful. I play the clean version in the house Saturday mornings kicking breakfast. The whole family vibes with it...Its great to be able to introduce my kids to soul music for their era....#NO MORE LEAN MUSIC

[@TurningGlobe]

bro i get nervous just looking at her in the eyes, feels like shes starring into my soul and judging the type of person I am.

[@Alwaysturntup]

she is very indecisive about everything 😂😂😂 it was kinda awkward watching this interview but it was a great interview

[@frogbIog]

this is an old comment but that’s just her charm, she’s so relatable and genuine

[@alphacharm]

Me too I’m so indecisive!!!

[@purpleHIGGY92]

[@dylancharlery-bowen1880]

Rosenberg you are the best person on this show. can you please stop being a side dish to Ebro and put some fucking work into getting your own interviews.

[@misspacino868]

Dylan Charlery-Bowen he does have his own interviews tho? He has his own segment.. check out their uploads or just type his Rosenberg interviews... he has many

[@pauladenna1268]

Im still shock.. people just keep doubting black beauty and black people. She is great.

I love SZA, she is such a goddess 💗 She always puts out such a good vibe and her music makes me feel so good 💗

[@tinawolsfeld3734]

Niggas gone hate this but she a true Scorpio♏️she just explained half my mind in 35 mins something I can't even do in a day cause how "crazy" my mind goes when trying to explain how I think

[@EE-xb4sr]

@Jiggy scorpios have a beautiful untamed consciously unconscious mess of a mind and most of the time its too hard trying to articulate things in a way that makes sense to others without looking crazy or plain dumb. Must be a scorpio thing bc she made PERFECT sense to me....a lot of these comments say she says "like" or "I don't know" too much but the way our brains our set up?!💬💬....trust me most of u would rather hear "idk" than the long all over the place explanation that make us seem indecisive or unsure. We live in a grey area of being vs not being, seeing vs not seeing, going where the wind blows vs being deeply rooted in the ground, etc. All the while standing firm in the black and white. We ain't conflicted we just.....I DON'T KNOW 😂😂😂♏🔛 #UnderOverstand

[@rbssh]

I saw SZA on tour with Jhene in SF and her set was amazing. So for her to say how anxious she was then blows my mind.

[@Cherrybaby12]

I love love love her conversations almost more than her performances....she is so grounded and true to herself...YES

i don't know why but sza's relationship with her family and life in general relates to me so much and i think that's why i love her so much

[@Roland_Kendrick]

I'm trying to stick with these dudes, but they are becoming more salty by the minute. First thing they whine about is watching her interview elsewhere first. Artists are gonna stop coming. This may be a great interview but the first minute earned them a 👎🏾 for me.

[@jennifercheck2197]

I only liked this video cuz sza in here

[@cheatahmame6663]

For all the comments about her not being a good interview, she is shy and has anxieties. But she's out there doing what she is afraid of unlike most people. Can an artist just be an artist? Why does she have to converse eloquently? Why does she have to have a generic answer? Like most of us, she is learning who she is.

[@TwoSeven]

She Soso badddddd bruh
