There's nothing like a dynamic duo, and SZA and Kendrick Lamar are ones that don't get talked about enough. While both of them are musical geniuses in their own right, they have also made musical magic together multiple times while signed to TDE. Their music collabs have led to them receiving Grammy noms, Golden Globes noms, and Academy noms.


Now, it's just been announced that they are going on a joint tour in 2025. In honor of their latest collaboration, we take a look at all the times SZA and Kendrick have teamed up together.

SZA Ft. Kendrick Lamar- "Babylon"

The first time we heard the two collaborate was in 2014 on SZA's EP, Z. Their song "Babylon" marries both of their sounds best and forecasts what fans can expect from the pair going forward.

SZA Ft. Kendrick Lamar- "Doves In The Wind"

Kendrick showed up and showed out for SZA again, this time for her 2017 debut album Ctrl. Their song "Doves in the Wind" is a dreamy song, and the Compton rapper's delivery was a chef's kiss.

Kendrick Lamar Ft. SZA- "All The Stars"

This time, Kendrick called up his sis to assist with the song "All The Stars" for the Black Panther album, which he also produced. The song was nominated for multiple awards, including an Oscar.

Kendrick Lamar Ft. SZA- "luther"

Kendrick surprised everyone when he dropped GNX in November. SZA appears on the album twice, including "luther," which samples the late legend Luther Vandross' song "If This World Were Mine." This song instantly became a favorite for Instagram Reels and TikToks.

Kendrick Lamar Ft. SZA- "gloria"

GNX closes out with "gloria," a song dedicated to Kendrick's love of writing rhymes. SZA's voice fills in beautifully between Kendrick's rhymes and ends with her singing, "I see you, you see me, both see what we want."

Aries-April-2025-monthly-horoscopes

April is a month to slow down and to fully grasp what has been. The month starts in fiery Aries Season, but we are also in the thick of Retrograde Season as we begin the month as well. Thankfully, Mercury finally goes direct on April 7, after being retrograde mid-March, and communication matters are clearing up. This is a month of mental clarity, a fresh start, and not being afraid to dream a little bigger.

On April 12, there is a Full Moon in Libra, and this Full Moon brings relationship and financial matters full circle. This is the time to let go of what doesn’t make you feel balanced or in harmony and to create space for more peace to enter your life. Venus goes direct in Pisces on the same day, after being retrograde since March 1, and love is healing. With Venus now direct, there are more opportunities for commitment and longevity in love, and there is overall a greater feeling of romance, receptivity, and compassion in the air now.

Turns Out Sober Sex Might Be The Underrated Secret To Better Orgasms

Hmph. I know there has got to be at least three times a week when our grandparents will hear about something that folks present as being revolutionary that causes them to just roll their eyes, shrug their shoulders, and continue to go on with whatever they were doing. Listen, call it old-fashioned thinking if you want to but if you want to avoid a lot of unnecessary regret in this life, hang out with your elders (and actually listen to what they are saying) sometimes — they’ve already been where you are and, since when it comes to them, you can’t say the same, you just might get a few gems (in fact, I can almost guarantee it).

Take sobergasms, for instance. Oh, I’m willing to bet that a senior in your life has mentioned them, just in another way, before. If you’ve never heard of the term, it’s actually a pretty good one because it means just what you think it does: SOBER ORGASMS. And just to make sure that we all are on the same page, it’s sex — that hopefully includes orgasms — that involves very little to no alcohol.
