SOS

SOS is the second studio album by American singer-songwriter SZA. It was released on December 9, 2022, by Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE) and RCA Records.

SZA worked with a variety of record producers and songwriters such as Babyface, Jeff Bhasker, Rob Bisel, Benny Blanco, Darkchild, DJ Dahi, Ant Clemons, and Lizzo. It serves as the follow-up to SZA's debut album Ctrl (2017).

Six singles were released between 2020 and 2023 to promote SOS, five of which were top-ten hits on the US Billboard Hot 100. The fifth, "Kill Bill" (2023), was SZA's first song to top the Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard Global 200 charts; the sixth, "Snooze" (2023), was the only song remain on the Billboard Hot 100 chart throughout the entire year of 2023. The album spent thirteen nonconsecutive weeks atop the Billboard 200, doing so in three separate years, and set several consumption records in the US. It was the first album by a woman to spend 100 weeks in the Billboard 200's top 10, and in 2025, it became the longest-running US top-10 by a Black artist. To promote the album, SZA embarked on the international SOS Tour, from February 2023 to May 2024.
