"“But now it’s like I’m so glad that that happened and that it didn’t cost me anything. If anything I just gained a bunch from it. And I thank god that I made cool music outside of that,” she explained."

I was about to say that it was more of a good thing than bad cause Rihanna is super popular artist and it would get more exposure than anything. And CTRL was released a year after it so the timing was good too.

the coat plus the big hair makes her look like big bird which is unfair

good on her for being able to honestly talk about the industry as well as her own insecurities abt her talent

I've only listened to a few songs of hers, all from the 1st album

I don't really get Sza on this. Why would you present the song if you didn't want her to use it? You were at a writers camp she was hosting.
I honestly don't understand Sza. She always has me scratching my head

That said im glad she realized that her creativity didn't stop with that one song

If the label owns it, then maybe the label has control over it? Idk.

yeah i'm not really understanding from this post what happened, how does it make sense that sza had shot a video for it but it was already rihanna's? idgi

[kawaiiairbender]

Yeah if she had shot a vid for it, why even present the song to Rihanna???

[where_i_begin]

I don't understand. Why did she let Rihanna have it?
