@@muthaphackk I was there in 2013 when it came out and she had to explain because y'all were tripping with the Satanic shit then like I see them doing now after the Hit Different video dropped.🤷♂️🤦♂️
@@Samuraipegasus48 i am lol omg is that bad? i just don’t like all these yt ppl singing they heart out to sza when it’s clear her music and experiences come from the pov of a black woman. like the way they relate to her insecurities, mostly centered around being a black woman in america, i don’t get how more ppl don’t notice the subtext in her lyrics but whatever. anyway i think it’s weird to me!! u don’t gotta love my opinion but what did X do fr? he wasn’t a saint but such a talented young artist who had prolly the biggest potential compared to his peers so idk why being an X fan is a bad thing. i’m not even that big of a fan, just remorseful for not his artistry while he was here and see now how great he was and coulda been. SZA made me feel less alone with this song at a time when i felt like being black in the gay community is a curse. seeing how easy it is for yt gay twinks to get attention. ppl got their reasons, it doesn’t have to make sense to you either
@@shakiid7 that wasn't even the main discussion, we're on the topic of gatekeeping 💀 I can understand how you feel about relating to an artist definitely but people act like if someone never heard of an artist before they got recognized they shouldn't feel allowed to enjoy their old music Also yes I said X fan because X fans do the exact same shit Nothing against X I actually listened to him before he blew up crazy but I'm definitely not one of the gatekeeping mfs 😭
I'll never forget the summer of 14' when I became utterly obsessed with this "underground" music and completely submerged myself in Sza and Doja Cat -good time
@@DaretoDreamHair glad someone said this, thought it was just me tbh, I absolutely love SZA but all honestly I prefer the old her (music wise) I don't get the same feeling with her new music (not bashing her btw)
@@smoothflowers this and ice moon were very developed songs. Some of her best works wish I could stream them instead of yt. It's another genre, not rnb. I love it. Came back I've listened to it the day it came out.
***** this is the best comment ever. Atheists make no sense whatsoever and bring up dumb things to try to prove their point even if it has nothing to do with the topic
who produced this track!?!? My God, the drums and the bassline is just so deep and crisp!! SZA did amazing with the vocals but the beat really brought this track together.
Exactly what I was thinking wow... I could believe it was Wondagurl, because she uses similar style drums in Travi$ Scott songs... Like listen to The Prayer
SZA hasn’t made a somewhat dark and serious song since this. She’s doing great where she is now but it’d be great to see her return to songs like this. Her being signed to TDE is what kinda made me think more music like this would come from her since a lot of the other members make a lot of darker music at times. Not saying I want her to completely return to this but just a couple songs or maybe an album that had this dark theme would be great
The song is called "Teen Spirit" so listen to the lyrics. Maybe she's talking about peer pressure and puberty and how kids are rushing each other to grow up. "You don't even know me" sounds like something a lot of teens would say to their parents, like they don't understand them. And it kinda sounds like she's in denial through out the song. Like she knows what's right and wrong but she wants to fit in and be something she's not. idk
To me I see it as she got raped or something like that. You hear stuff like "creeping on my shoulder, I hear you breathing." ( similar to that ). And "don't come close." But she loves that person and become some sort of slave to him hence "just do it." And she knows it isn't healthy but she can't stop. Or some kind of trauma has happened in her life. Idk just my thought
I have no clue what sza is talking about specifically, whether that be rape, depression, suicidal thoughts, an actual teenager or demonic etc. but I personally think it means for example how teens can be manipulated,foolish, easily influenced, and whatever sza is referring to she feel its consuming her, taking over her, she doesn't feel completely in control of herself, it's so powerful her inner being or soul feels childlike. so she refers to her spirit as a teen, teen spirit.
No one picking up on the suicide references here? A song named "Teen Spririt" named after Nirvana who's front man famously committed suicide. Her singing "just do it" so cryptic and beautifully? Sounds like an inner struggle to stay in this world or go to the next.
+Jah Mon so does Vince Staples. Every track on Prima Donna is a banger but it also has some really depressing undertones and interludes about his depression and suicide
That's what everybody on TDE somewhat does "This is your generation, show your pain" quote from Kendricks Section 80 album. Seems she's really into kid cudi as well. So she might be telling a real story or merely vividly explaining what happens to women in our society too often.
I love this song but it takes me back to a dark time in my life. I listen to it differently now.. But, it's crazy how music can be like a picture. It can take you back to where you were when you first heard it, or listened to it most.
Tarrina Watson facts. I tell my gf this all of the time. music does that to me majorly. I was also in a dark space when this came out... hearing it is almost like a soundtrack my memories of myself. crazy
The song is expressing the usual stereotypes of a teen. Suicide, depression, and troubled behavior. Maybe it's a personal explanation - but the song uses an excuse if "voices" in your head, meaning it's just who I am. You think you know me. "Don't come close" is technically saying that the spirit in the teen is just depressed and doesn't want anyone around. Like when a teen tells their parent that they don't know them when they are going through an emo phase. Sza just took her unique neo soul sound and made an eerie yet awesome song. If you think it's demonic... well that's your opinion.
@@AfroGirl5852 According to Genius, it means, "SZA’s calling out the fakes and declaring she’s above them. When SZA mentions “the Sun”, she’s referring to the sunrise created in Neo’s honor. Furthermore, SZA’s real name, Solana, means “of the sun.”"
I listened to her at 16 knowing full well she was gonna be big one day didnt realise it wouldn't happen until I was 19/20 and now shes even more popping I'm 21
For me, this song represents the depression and anxiety I've been going through for the last few years. I'm only 15, so I've spent most of my pre-teen and now teens years depressed. Yes, I often feel lost and lonely without a lot of friends, but I really don't have a major reason to be depressed and can't explain why it keeps coming back. This depression doesn't know me, but it keeps coming closer and closer. It's killing my teen spirit.
Thing is you only find your way when you go find it. It’s not the yellow brick road but it’s definitely a light at the end of that tunnel. Just choose life people. Hope that helped someone
When XXXTENTACION sampled this n slowed it down the first part it took on a whole new meaning for me it was like my depression n everything creeping back on me to just get it over with,music is so beautiful.Life
Glad artists like her, Frank Ocean and Jhene Aiko are leading the new R&B renaissance. Things were pretty whack for the past few years but they're bringing it back.
This song has always reminded me of suicide and the spiritual battles going on that we can’t see. These entities want our souls they want to take control and sometimes it pushes us to suicide.
She is literally has the female vibe of Kendrick on lock. She has the bass and beat with the eery feel Kendrick has but she has a different way of delivering it which makes her unique. She gives you the vibe that she is always daydreaming and never fully "here" in her songs. Sza is so on point, I would love to meet her.
really? i see her as more as having the female vibe of Ab-Soul...with the imagery she uses in her lyrics and all. kendricks music doesn't sound anything like this to me.
geeth4ng Ah- see, I raarely actually process lyrics just the instrumental, I could literally listen to a song with just humming and love it but for me it's that dragging, sloth like, hazy melody vs. the hard bass beat which gives me the same vibe as Kenderick but her melodic up and down delivery with the high pitched voice gives it the feminine touch. Abz music is really hip hop - fast layers of beats instead of the melody in my opinion.
BelizeHunni Omg I love you! I'm constantly saying the same thing to people. I don't really connect with someone's lyrics but more the background music and the melody that the lyrics are delivered with. I find most people are the opposite.
Anyone else remember when they used to play this song on TeenNick in between shows? Never really cared for it then, but now that I'm older sooo obsessed.
Simone Farrell Seriously? After 11+ years she's finally gettin' her shine. The word overrated is overrated mostly b/c the internet allows us to access stuff more. Jhene & SZA are two of many of the upcoming R&B songbirds
I don't think SZA is trying to corrupt any spirits, and I think music does have the ability to effect it, seep into you sorta speak. Personally, I don't think I can be an active listener of hers, her songs move me the wrong way. I'm not getting positive vibes, and I bet im not suppose to considering where she is pulling this rawness from! it might be bc of the pain I harvest in myself gets a bit rustled when I hear her, and that REALLY makes me uncomfortable. unsettled. Not my wavelength. I hope one day I can use my voice as a form of expression! I appreciate what she is doing though yass! so nice to see a woman of color portraying herself in this light!
+Juneias Actually her music moves me in ONLY positive ways, whether it is ominous or heavenly. She is clearly highly spiritually aware & her music comes from a place of awareness. Which is the best way to be. (The opposite of oblivious ignorance.)
+Rebel Love kodos, Ik a lot of people can identify with what she is doing, music is subjective xP is what she's doing unique? totally and I appreciate that. It's just doesn't click with me and thats cool too.

I agree that they commercialized her, but she was in a totally different headspace back then vs CTRL. forget about her features bc those were mainstream shit. But CTRL is still her. 🖤🖤🖤
Tatiana I miss her being herself and speaking from the heart rather than being the mainstream puppet they turned her into. Not every song she sang was suicidal 🤦🏿♂️
Brandon Collins oh I thought she sang about personal experiences in her most recent album.. Frequency about self love through a breakup. What do I know though, I don’t know her personally 🤷🏾♀️.
well she's technically not a "hip-hop" singer... she's in a whole other genre called "neo-soul" or alternative r&b. it's a beautiful genre and there's alot of female artists like her in it. you just gotta look harder.
SZA really changed the game. She brought new sound with her voice. You could later hear other singers kinda try to mimic her odd delivery of the way she says words. A time of Soundcloud gems & depression. Deep sea diving & finding gold. Also when I came across Mac Miller, he was on his hip-hop tip.
The first time i heard her music my daughter was listening to "Snooze" while singing Karoke and I'm like she has an angelic voice. I'm this type of person once I gravitate towards someone i have to look into them and after hearing her Z album I'm like damn she really been that girl from the beginning. I listened to the rest of her albums and I'm blown away how much she progress over the years. I watched so many interviews of hers and ppl back lashing her for being a liar and I'm just like yal are digging up the wrong artist let her make music and have fun. I see why she vanished she needed a break from ppl critizing her. Once she took a break she came back full throttle and ate every interview, every photo shoot, every song, and every concert up. Proud of her. I can comfortably say I'm a fan of hers and I'm not a fan with many artist.
The song is about struggling with demons and suicide. It's not about being possessed by Satan. Yall need to chill sometimes it's just a deep song.
How do you know did you wrote the song?
@@muthaphackk I was there in 2013 when it came out and she had to explain because y'all were tripping with the Satanic shit then like I see them doing now after the Hit Different video dropped.🤷♂️🤦♂️
@@khalilabdul-waheed6791 its sad right? All the great artist where dope before the got down with that satanic shit. Like the weeknd, sza ect.
@@muthaphackk I think the point flew over your head lol
@@syds8752 yea I think it did fly over their head
I turned her lyrics into a monologue for drama class, and it was the most intense thing I'd ever done.
what verse did you use?
Sounds interesting!
All of them. Just cut out the last stanzas she where she repeats herself. It was pretty difficult to perform.
that’s actually really cool & creative
How did the people react? Did any of them recognize the Lyrics? I wanna know ;-;
This is the first song I ever heard by SZA, it made me immediately fall in Love with her, so much vunerability and honesty in her voice
same here
Same for me!
Mines too
same.
SAME
It's a crime that this song isn't on Spotify.
It got removed from spotify
u mean justice... sza music should be heard by her day 1 fans only
all these bandwagon fans could neva relate like how we did
@@shakiid7 nah you must be an X fan 😭
@@Samuraipegasus48 i am lol omg is that bad?
i just don’t like all these yt ppl singing they heart out to sza when it’s clear her music and experiences come from the pov of a black woman.
like the way they relate to her insecurities, mostly centered around being a black woman in america, i don’t get how more ppl don’t notice the subtext in her lyrics but whatever.
anyway i think it’s weird to me!! u don’t gotta love my opinion but what did X do fr? he wasn’t a saint but such a talented young artist who had prolly the biggest potential compared to his peers so idk why being an X fan is a bad thing. i’m not even that big of a fan, just remorseful for not his artistry while he was here and see now how great he was and coulda been.

Also yes I said X fan because X fans do the exact same shit
Nothing against X I actually listened to him before he blew up crazy but I'm definitely not one of the gatekeeping mfs 😭
something about her is so eery and different... but i fucking love it.
I love her. She has a beautiful voice and just it's different not like normal rnb.
She's got that Kurt Cobain disease ..... :)
chris montgomery the power of the Goddess terrifies
exactly yassss
yeah... she's got that thing
I'll never forget the summer of 14' when I became utterly obsessed with this "underground" music and completely submerged myself in Sza and Doja Cat -good time
Sapphire C same 😍 but it was the spring/summer of 15 for me haha
Now in 2020 they both have made waves.
are you me? them and Jhene Aiko and like Kitty Cash and all her friends. that was the summer i graduated hs, good times
most of the women i liked back then are huge now it’s amazing. they all sound mad different now except Jhene tho lol
loleeeetaa frfr its so crazy! I’m glad i was on the first wave lol
I miss this sza

She made Babylon which was released a few months after this on Z but she has definitely started to lean in more of a pop direction.
Almost the entirety of Z was dark as fuck. This sounds somber production wise but the lyrics on Z are very much dark & twisty
babylon came after this… and the entirety of Z
X was the last dark era, I miss her music like this.
@@Tempest87 X? i don’t think she has an album called X? see sza run, S, Z, ctrl and sos, no?

2013 SZA HITS DIFFERENT, YOU JUST HAD TO BE THERE
This the sza I never left
Her music is too overwhelming. I have to hold back tears when listening to her. It's TOO amazing.
Ive only just found SZA but I love her music and hair! She reminds me of FKA twigs
FKA twigs and SZA are the best female vocalist out there right now!
Jhene aiko also
agreed!
LaDontae Williams Jhene Aiko? Overrated. She is good but this girl is way better
Simone Farrell Seriously? After 11+ years she's finally gettin' her shine. The word overrated is overrated mostly b/c the internet allows us to access stuff more. Jhene & SZA are two of many of the upcoming R&B songbirds
Takes me back to 2014 when i discovered Sza, Esty, jhene aiko, kelela. 14' was wild
Day 1 SZA fans come here for nostalgia purposes!!
I don't think SZA is trying to corrupt any spirits, and I think music does have the ability to effect it, seep into you sorta speak. Personally, I don't think I can be an active listener of hers, her songs move me the wrong way. I'm not getting positive vibes, and I bet im not suppose to considering where she is pulling this rawness from! it might be bc of the pain I harvest in myself gets a bit rustled when I hear her, and that REALLY makes me uncomfortable. unsettled. Not my wavelength. I hope one day I can use my voice as a form of expression!
I appreciate what she is doing though yass! so nice to see a woman of color portraying herself in this light!
+Juneias Actually her music moves me in ONLY positive ways, whether it is ominous or heavenly. She is clearly highly spiritually aware & her music comes from a place of awareness. Which is the best way to be. (The opposite of oblivious ignorance.)
+Rebel Love kodos, Ik a lot of people can identify with what she is doing, music is subjective xP is what she's doing unique? totally and I appreciate that. It's just doesn't click with me and thats cool too.

Juneias Aww, I love you,}
You might like "Ice Moon" better though, it's less creepy and more about divinity & enlightenment.
I'm usually all on lyrics, but that beat is too hard
its crazy how the music industry made her do surgery and lose weight she was beautiful then
After listening to the new album, I mean this more than ever: FREE SZA!!!
What a beautiful song. Her music has a really slow sensual tempo yet deal with lonliness, disappointment, heartbreak, fear of failure.
Exactlyy
I think this song about many things but, temptation is the underlying theme.
the fact that this is not on streaming services should be a crime
I miss this SZA. She was vibrating in a different wavelength, then they commercialized her
I agree that they commercialized her, but she was in a totally different headspace back then vs CTRL. forget about her features bc those were mainstream shit. But CTRL is still her. 🖤🖤🖤
you miss her singing about suicide?
Tatiana I miss her being herself and speaking from the heart rather than being the mainstream puppet they turned her into. Not every song she sang was suicidal 🤦🏿♂️
Brandon Collins oh I thought she sang about personal experiences in her most recent album.. Frequency about self love through a breakup. What do I know though, I don’t know her personally 🤷🏾♀️.
@@Tatiana-sf6on true like not tryna be mean but why would you want her to ffeel like that lol? Does it make her more indie
The meaning behind her words in this song is sooo deep!! She is obviously intelligent and knows her way around poetry and books. Love her!!!
Beautiful girl, voice, lyrics, & beat
I 100% agree
I know I ain’t the only that knew almost the entire song because of XXXtentacion with Ice Hotel ❤️
ice hotel
yep
SZA is amazinggg!
Just discovered her yesterday. I am in LOVE!
i just discovered her today .😊
same
Alexis Chambers do u still listen to her??
How does 10 years go by just like that….it was 2014 a second ago….nostalgia o clock 🥹
ikrrrr 😢
Wish we had a real sza and x collab 🥺
Wow a real female hip hop singer that talks to the people with her voice and not her body.. I respect that
....wait for it
Niko Priest hahaha so true but i hope she stay true to herself
LMAO niko I hope that never happens but that shit was funny
well she's technically not a "hip-hop" singer... she's in a whole other genre called "neo-soul" or alternative r&b. it's a beautiful genre and there's alot of female artists like her in it. you just gotta look harder.
^ like BANK just heard of her today actually loll
God she's hypnotic! Something like fqa twigs but different... wow ❤
x using this makes so much sense
Man!!!! Them TDE SoundCloud days, you just had to be there
Damn, made me so chill.
She got any other songs like these?
Search TheSoundYouNeed you will thank me with all your heart later 😎
reino groenewald Subscribed from first 3 songs..Good looking out homie appreciate it!
Ralfs Abolins no problem bruh 😎we all music lovers
: ) have a nice day or evening
😎😎 *****
SZA really changed the game. She brought new sound with her voice. You could later hear other singers kinda try to mimic her odd delivery of the way she says words. A time of Soundcloud gems & depression. Deep sea diving & finding gold. Also when I came across Mac Miller, he was on his hip-hop tip.
🔥🔥🔥💯
This song used to creep the hell out of me
ICE HOTEL
YESSSSS
I really like SZA. She's weird, different, and beautiful at the same time. Which is why I like her a lot. It's her own style.
ABRA and SZA seem very DARK in their songs. I love it!!!!
Her voice is so haunting (in a good way) 2:07
Bring this sound back Sza 🥺❤️
This is a certified hood classic
Bruh when this video started this shyt gave me chills rip jah brah
I cant believe i only found out about this artist a few days ago :l
voice is amazing and content is totally on point for me.
Ｅｚｅｋ 2:06
Who’s listening in 2020? I miss the old SZA 😩
2021 here, and honestly same 😭
As a guy who listens to mostly heavy metal and rock. But also alot of other music. This song is heavy without all the guitars and drums.
Whoa this is my first time seeing this and she looks so different 😳 like wow and she sounds so different 😳 like I'm actually shook
she lost a lot of weight and maybe surgery idk
Sza needa link up with Syd's group the internet. Beautiful eargasms would be born
The first time i heard her music my daughter was listening to "Snooze" while singing Karoke and I'm like she has an angelic voice. I'm this type of person once I gravitate towards someone i have to look into them and after hearing her Z album I'm like damn she really been that girl from the beginning. I listened to the rest of her albums and I'm blown away how much she progress over the years. I watched so many interviews of hers and ppl back lashing her for being a liar and I'm just like yal are digging up the wrong artist let her make music and have fun. I see why she vanished she needed a break from ppl critizing her. Once she took a break she came back full throttle and ate every interview, every photo shoot, every song, and every concert up. Proud of her. I can comfortably say I'm a fan of hers and I'm not a fan with many artist.
Rest In Paradise X.😔💔
He used this as a sample in one of his rare, older songs...
Im living what she's singing.
Remember about XXXTENTACION: Ice Hotel😢🖤
