Songstress SZA has no problem being real… It seems that fame and success also comes with a price tag that she doesn’t want top pay.

Her success has landed her a platinum album,Grammy nominations, hit singles, tv and online commercials but it has been obvious the R&B singer often seems at odds with her growing success.

In February, SZA discussed why she didn’t like her debut album, Ctrl, and how her Grammy losses affected her. In an interview with Flaunt, SZA describes the roots of her current unhappiness and jokes about her next album being her final one. “I’m still miserable,” SZA said. “My world got so much smaller so fast. I have so much to write about. I feel like I’m in a cage. I’m making the best album of my life for this next album and I know that… because it’s going to be my last album.”

"I’ve been talking shit to myself on different topics every day for the last week," @SZA tells Flaunt’s @BradWete in her New Fantasy Issue cover story. She hasn't started working on her sophomore album yet, but this is how projects begin. "[It's] typically how I start—coming up with little catchphrases in the car on the way home, and I’ll be like, ‘Cute.’ Then I’ll be like, ‘I think I’m ready to write and start recording.’” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The @topdawgent songstress opens up about her dreams, battles with depression, and connecting with Hollywood characters on Flaunt.com.
