History Between Artists: Debunked Rumors of Exclusion

On a related note, SZA previously denied rumors suggesting that Frank Ocean had been removed from her album titled LANA. A report by Hybe Beast on December 24, 2024, cited a user on social media, @blondedhomer, who claimed Ocean’s verse was cut from the deluxe edition of SZA’s album.
“Frank Ocean’s verse on SZA’s new album LANA (SOS Deluxe) was removed at the last minute,”the user asserted.

Notably, in an interview with Variety in August 2023, SZA disclosed that the album’s title is inspired by her childhood nickname, closely tied to her real name, Solána Imani Rowe.
“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,”SZA noted during the interview.
In addition to her music career, SZA has recently ventured into acting, starring alongside Keke Palmer and Katt Williams in the comedic film “One of Them Days,”which premiered on January 17, 2025.
