SZA Elevates Bug Costume For ‘Lana’ Cover Art

1 week ago 4

SZA is jokingly bugged out. The singer has taken her bug costume from her Hot Ones episode to a whole new level as she unveiled the cover to Lana (SOS Deluxe).

On the cover to the highly-anticipated extended edition of her Grammy-winning album, she’s topless using metallic body paint as her armor with oversized cargo pants and an open jacket to match.

Fans and friends alike can’t get enough of the abstract albeit cryptic cover art.

Artist Shefon Taylor commented, “This day needs to hurry up and end —I’m ready.” Singer Mahalia added, “I will never not be OBSESSED with [you].”

“Wide eyed and bushy tailed!” singer Adanna Duru teased. Doechii replied, “You’re crazzzyyyyy.” Producer Charity Croff joked, “Bro you pulling up to the colony like Hopper to collect the grain seeds… and WE AINT GOT EM SZA!!!!!!” Someone else praised SZA, writing, “Nah you really have the most flawless run of album covers.”

Earlier this week, she finally announced that Lana was coming out on Friday (Dec. 20) using a visual of Ben Stiller in Severance singing along to “Drive” as the official promo.

In regard to the now iconic disguise of hers, SZA shared on Hot Ones that she’s “tired of not being a bug.”

Explaining, “I have a harder time enjoying anything if I don’t suffer for it, which is why I have this mask on […] This one brings me so much peace of mind in the realm of like being a person is so daunting. As is being in your own skin and the whole shebang. For no other reason other than I’m just tired of being not a bug. It’s like, what the f**k. Wouldn’t you want to be a bug if you could be anything else?”
