SZA, Ctrl (Top Dawg Entertainment; 88985449191, US 2022 Reissue, Gatefold, Booklet, Green Vinyl) 2xLP NEW/NEW

2xLP - NEW/NEW - SZA, Ctrl (Top Dawg Entertainment; 88985449191, US 2022 Reissue, Gatefold, Booklet, Green Vinyl), , Much-anticipated debut album, and fourth release overall, by T.D.E. s first lady, SZA. Following Z, Ctrl speaks upon SZA s perspective within previous relationships and the often relatable difficulties that many recognize. The tracks convey themes of love, hate, heartbreak, revenge, and self-perception. Somewhere between the house built by Frank Ocean s monotone and falsetto and Migos signature trap cadences, SZA s unique manipulation of language in performance moves far afield of clever euphemisms and the temporary high of rap entendres or gospel runs to focus on the deliberate deconstruction of words. - 1016597C *** In Stock In Our Crouch End Shop ***
