SZA Talks Debut GRAMMY Performance
The 'Supermodel' singer will perform at music's biggest night...
Thursday, January 11, 2018 - 14:27
SZA is counting her lucky stars.
The R&B superstar is nominated for five awards at this year's GRAMMY Awards - her first ever nominations - and has now been announced as a performer.
She will take to the same stage as legends like Bruno Mars, Kesha, Lady Gaga and P!nk, and she's pinching herself at the prospect in a heartfelt letter she shared on Instagram.
You say you got a girl
How you want me?
How you want me when you got a girl?
The feelin' is wreckless
Of knowin' it's selfish
Knowin' I'm desperate
Gettin' all in your love
Fallin' all over love, like
Do it to last, last
Hanging out the back, all up in your lap
Like is you comin' home?
Is you out with her?
I don't care long as you're here by 10:30
No later than, drop them drawers
Give me what I want
My man is my man is your man
Heard it's her man too
My man is my man is your man
Heard that's her man
Tuesday and Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
I just keep him satisfied through the weekend
You're like 9 to 5, I'm the weekend
Make him lose his mind every weekend
You take Wednesday, Thursday
Then just send him my way
Think I got it covered for the weekend
I gotta say I'm in the mood for a little bit more of that
I mean I'm saying what kind of deal is two days?
I need me at least 'bout four of them
More of them, more of you on me
On us, just tell me you want me, yeah
Monday and I'll be at your door
Ready to take her place
Ready to give you
What you've been missin' on weekdays
What you've been waitin' for
10:30, no later than
Drop them drawers, I know what you want
My man is my man is your man
Heard it's her man too
My man is my man is your man
Heard that's her man
Tuesday and Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
I just keep him satisfied through the weekend
You're like 9 to 5, I'm the weekend
Make him lose his mind every weekend
You take Wednesday, Thursday
Then just send him my way
Think I got it covered for the weekend

"Thankful for every opportunity to grow, thankful each time to face the unfathomable and build over and and over again," she said.
"Incredibly Honored that the Recording Academy asked me to perform this year at the GRAMMYs! Humbled and still speechless to even be nominated."
While she didn't give any hints about her performance, she did reveal that she is "Ready to express [and] celebrate."
SZA's debut album Ctrl is nominated for Best Urban Contemporary Album, while she is up for Best New Artist, and several songs are up for awards.
We are sure whatever she has in store for us will be a defining moment in her career, which has only went strength to strength in the past 12 months.
The 2018 GRAMMY Awards take place live from New York's Madison Square Garden on January 28, 2018.

That is my greatest fear
That if, if I lost control
Or did not have control, things would just, you know
I would be… fatal
I'm writing this letter to let you know
I'm really leaving
And no, I'm not keeping your shit
Heard you got some new homies
Got some new hobbies
Even a new hoe too
Maybe she can come help you
Maybe she can come lick you after we're done
What's done is done
I don't want nothing else to do with it
Let me tell you a secret
I been secretly banging your homeboy
Why you in Vegas all up on Valentine's Day?
Why am I so easy to forget like that?
It can't be that easy for you to get like that
Oh no she didn't
Ooh yes I did
Oh no she didn't
I'll do it again
Leave me lonely for prettier women
You know I need too much attention for shit like that
You know you wrong for shit like that
I could be your supermodel if you believe
If you see it in me, see it in me, see it in me
I don't see myself
Why I can't stay alone just by myself?
Wish I was comfortable just with myself
But I need you, but I need you, but I need you
Ooh, just get a load of them, they got chemistry
All they could say, we like brother and sister
Look so good together
Bet they fuckin' for real
And they was right
That's why I stayed with ya
The, the dick was too good
It made me feel good
For temporary love
You was a temporary lover
Leave me lonely for prettier women
You know I need too much attention for shit like that
You know you wrong for shit like that
I could be your supermodel if you believe
If you see it in me, see it in me, see it in me
I don't see myself
Why I can't stay alone just by myself?
Wish I was comfortable just with myself
But I need you, but I need you, but I need you
That if, if I lost control
Or did not have control, things would just, you know
I would be… fatal
I'm writing this letter to let you know

Got some new hobbies
