Mar 17, 2023God, I'm so bipolar with this album. Metacritic should have a lock. I'm sorry SZA this album is solid, I'm just going through it and you're making me feel things I don't want to confront. Solid 9, because I'm stressing perfection.
-
Dec 22, 2022The confident writing, amazing melodies (+SZA's gorgeous voice), makes SOS a fantastic album. While the chords and sound of the music feels overused and quite basic, the boldness and catchiness still prevails, to make SOS a fantastic album.

Dec 31, 2022It is a grower nonetheless for those whose experimental R&B listens are rare.
-
Dec 11, 2022Great album, a few songs felt like fillers but overall it’s excellent. A good follow up from CTRL
-
Dec 21, 2022Mannnn SZA never misses. Like the 5 year wait was sooo worth it for sure. The Album is beautifully cohesive considering its length, like she pulled off all 23 of those tracks- plus her versatility is just insane ughhhh
-
Jan 1, 2023Too much tracks for me to remember… beautifully produced and we all can agree the SZA is a lyrical genius but, some songs start to sound similar, especially with all these tracks! Nobody Gets Me and Open Arms start to sound oddly similar, along with some other tracks. Other than that, I love this album with all my heart, the album covers story is so meaningful too.
-
Dec 12, 2022One of the most cohesive albums this year- while giving multiple genres. Incredible!

Dec 9, 2022An almost perfect piece of work from SZA. Even though the album is 23 tracks long and over an hour, the album traps you quickly enough so you can sit through it all and enjoy every track for what it is.
-
Dec 11, 2022very valid
-
Dec 11, 2022Sza is one of the most talented artists of her generation and she proves it again on her second album.
-
Dec 11, 2022it is an amazing and interesting experience, sza transports us into his mind in a surprising way, despite being repetitive at times

Dec 11, 2022SZA is perfect, that's art. The mix of sounds in this album is amazing!!!!!!!
-
Dec 12, 2022This is the best album I’ve heard in years. It’s a true masterpiece. I really cannot stop listening to it. I’m over here wishing I could bring it into the shower with me, and wanting to share it with everyone I know. This is the album of the year and possibly even the album of the decade.
-
Dec 12, 2022This album has be one the best I’ve listened to in a while. Most albums have a select few things I like but nearly this album has been added to my playlist. Between the word flow, beat, and how much I can relate to these songs make me love it that much more.
-
Aug 16, 2023Worth the wait, SOS perfectly embraces the emotions and feelings of any 20 and 30-somethings. Despite the long tracklist and some filller tracks, SZA once again delivers beautiful songs with amazing production. Is it better than ctrl and an escape from the sophomore album slump? Time will tell, but still an album worthy of your listen and recognition.

Apr 29, 2023With such a long tracklist I got nervous before my first listen, but I know now never to doubt SZA. She brings it to you every ball!

Feb 3, 2023After a long wait, SOS is finally here. Wow was it worth the wait. SZA gifts us a 23 track masterpiece, showcasing her vocal versatility. Starting from the beginning and listening all the way through will never leave you bored. Repeat listens, especially from “Kill Bill”, “Shirt”, and “Low” can be expected. This album is the hype, and thrives in it.

Feb 6, 2023Without this song we wouldn't have any theme song for killing our ex's... I haven't and never will but this song would be good for it

Feb 19, 2023All i have to say is that if you do not like this album you have no taste. i said what i said.

Feb 26, 2023Amazing album what a way to end 2022 and enter 2023. She is a genius and hit maker you can see that she proved that she deserved that grammy and hopefully she’ll be nominated again this year and win more
-
Mar 5, 2023Does not top her previous album Ctrl, in my opinion. Still a beautifully written and produced album with Solana's gorgeous vocals. Personal favorites are Used, Gone Girl, Smoking on my Ex Pack & Forgiveless.

May 3, 2023Matthew Alexander "Matt" Sinegar [SIN-NA-GAR] (An EXTREMELY Mature & EXTREMELY Heterosexual (Straight) African-American/Black Man):
S.O.S. (2023) Is Literally Always One Of My All-Time Favorite R&B Albums.
The Song "Kill Bill" Is Literally Always Lit. -
Jun 16, 2023Did somebody say “Album Of The Year”…?
It’s just the best of the best, favorite track: “Shirt” (guilty pleasure) -
Jul 9, 2023De fato uma das maiores OBRAS de SZA! A queen nunca decepciona e lançou esse álbum para provar, cada canção, cada instrumental. Está tudo perfeito principalmente pela quantidade de musicas e com um anuncio de pausa na carreira musical esse álbum foi certeiro.
-
Jul 23, 2023Sza lança mais um álbum supremo do R&B e se consagra como a maior R&B desse século
-
Aug 3, 2023The best album of the year, Sza proved to be versatile and served trap and hip-hop.
-
Sep 8, 2023This is the album of the year. This is a no-skip album. SZA really hit it out of the park with this one…
Awards & Rankings
-
Dec 19, 2022The peaks on SOS, (“Used,” “Smoking on my Ex Pack,” and “Forgiveless”) find SZA sounding refreshingly comfortable rapping over gritty, hazy, and grimy productions.
-
Dec 16, 2022It may take a few years for SOS to ascend to the heights, but if 808s & Heartbreak was the breakup record of the 2000s and Blonde was the 2010s examination of loss and trauma, then SZA might have produced that emotional breaking point for the 2020s.
-
Dec 15, 2022Hour-plus length and stylistic variety likewise signal that SOS could be the overreaching kind of highly anticipated follow-up. Still, it's an advancement from Ctrl in every respect apart from cohesion
