So, when is Lana's release date? What is the tracklist to SZA's deluxe album? Are there any features in Lana? Here's all we know.

1. When is 'Lana' by SZA's release date?

   Two years after teasing ‘LANA,’ SZA says the wait is nearly over for its release.

   Lana will be released on Friday 20 December, and has already teased the song 'Drive' with Ben Stiller making a cameo on the upcoming record.

   Now, SZA has shared a teaser on Instagram, with the album title ‘Lana’ accompanied by ‘SOS Deluxe’ in all-caps. The post was published yesterday (December 9), marking the two-year anniversary of ‘SOS’.

   

2. What is the track list for Lana by SOS?

   SZA has not confirmed the track list for Lana, but has revealed it is a "whole 'nother album" that has "seven to ten songs" on its track list.

   In September 2023, SZA threw a surprise album party, and she performed four new tracks:

   • Saturn
   • PSA
   • DTM / Diamond Boy
   • Boy from South Detroit

   'PSA' was used as the opener for SZA's 'SOS' tour, and was released as a bonus song on the website-exclusive edition of SOS. Drive will also feature.

   

   SZA has also revealed that the track 'Joni' - a tribute to Joni Mitchell will also be on the album.

   The song was leaked by fans a few years ago, with SZA telling Variety: "‘Joni’ is on it. Well, they leaked it, so I wasn’t gonna put it on there.

   "I guess I should still… but they leaked it already. They ruined it. [Fans] already have it."

3. What is the meaning of Lana by SOS?

   In August 2023, SZA started dropping hints about an SOS deluxe, and said to Variety: "I added a couple of songs. It’s like a whole new project."

   "It’s called ‘Lana’ — my name but, it’s the first tattoo that I ever got, when I was 13.

   It was 10 bucks a letter and I only had 40, so that that became my nickname for no reason. ‘Lana’ is really just the B-side of SOS."
