Starting point is 00:00:03 Now, let me let you all in on something. If an artist says that they are going to put out an album, and then the time comes for that album to come out, and it's nowhere on DSPs. Can y'all let me know how I'm supposed to feel? I'm a little upset right now, because ultimately, I don't know how to react to this. Is she not putting out album, or is she putting out album?
Starting point is 00:00:36 I feel like Hulk right now. I need album. Album needs me. It's a symbiotic relationship. Now I'm not going to try to be dramatic, but let's just say, when it comes to Siza, SOS is currently the 18th most played album in the world right now. The Deluxe Edition has it as of now, as of me covering this currently. The Deluxe Edition is not out on DSPs.
Starting point is 00:01:07 Siz is saying on her Instagram that the full deluxe drops, First thing tomorrow a.m. had to get my mixes right. All songs are delivered and ingesting into the system as we speak. Please be kind. We've been up for days. I do believe she's been up for days. That's something that as a content creator I can understand. Trying to hit a deadline, you'll realize that, oh, this and this and this and this needs
Starting point is 00:01:39 to happen before two days from now. So now you're pulling all-nighters, and now guess what? You're not sleeping. So I do believe that they've been up for days. Only thing is, as a human, I can't stop the feeling of me not having a Siza album and being a little upset. So I'm definitely going to get over it once the deluxe edition is out. Once the deluxe edition is out, then I will get over it. So, and all jokes aside, you know, I'm not the most.
Starting point is 00:02:11 you know, upset or perturbed at this, but I will say, was it perturbed? I don't know. Let me see. Perturbed definition. We're looking up definitions on the spot as a podcast. You got to love it. Yeah, unsettled. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:26 So I'm a little perturbed, right? For the simple fact that I thought we was going to get this album. And it's now extended the release date. So it's not the biggest deal in the world, but when you're dealing with an artist like, Siza, you have to put in perspective that Siza currently has the seventh most played track in the world. I would say Kendrick, but, you know, not going to lie to you on Luther, I think Siza really carried that track. But I will also say she's on the album twice, and the second song that she is on is only the 76 most played track in the world. And of course, Kendrick has a lot of
Starting point is 00:03:03 tracks above that. So I'm not just going to say Sizer carried Kendrick, because that would be, you know, definitely blasphemous. But I will say, Luther is current. As of December 20th, Luther is currently the most popular track off of this album. So as far as TV off, it had a higher peak at 2, but TV off is currently the 8th most play track, and Luther is currently the 7th most play track. I'm just going to call it the Siza effect, but y'all are going to call me a Kendrick Hader, so I'm okay with that, as Siza definitely carried on that track. With that being said, I've been looking at the comments and y'all are beyond hilarious.
Starting point is 00:03:45 Somebody said, just turned in the album you've teased since December 10th, 2023. Fans are beyond ruthless. They are utmost diabolical when it comes to not caring about your feelings, right? And as a content creator, as a musician, just know, they don't care what you're going through. they just want what they want and ultimately they have came with some of the most fire quotes to let them know
Starting point is 00:04:15 how to let CISN know how upset they are because somebody said I never want to be romantic no that's not somebody says Cizor turning in the album 20 minutes before it's supposed to be released is a PG podcast
Starting point is 00:04:30 so we're just going to say it's really insane somebody else said that Lena won't be ready until a.m. And then they put a meme of them going to sleep and crying. Like, I do believe, and somebody says, says, a girl, I had my wine ready. Now I feel you, sister. I ain't going to lie. That's one of the mood setters right there. So honestly, I will say that girl that had her wine ready, Cizza, you let her down. She was ready to set the move. I don't know if it by herself or
Starting point is 00:05:05 what's a significant other, but she was definitely ready to set the mood. And now that mood has to be reinstated at the later point in time. So all jokes aside, I just wanted to get across the fact that we really want to Cizzo Deluxe. It's really pertinent that we get this music before Christmas season because it's basically like Christmas. Kendrick dropped and, you know what I mean? That's cool.
Starting point is 00:05:29 We want Cizza Deluxe album because you and Kendrick are going on tour. So we want to learn all the lyrics before you go on tour. So we can sing along with you because, of course, when it comes to stadium, We already know that your music is going to sound a lot better in the stadium compared to size seven. I mean, my fault. White tank top. I mean, what's his name?
Starting point is 00:05:49 Kendrick. Yeah. So with that being said, Cizzo and her dropping Laina is something that we are highly anticipating. And I think I speak for the entire CISSA fan base when I say we, right? I haven't got to anything that I've written down. So let me go over some of the things I was wanting to talk about. So as far as this deluxe edition, of course, the initial release date was midnight, right? It's a little past midnight.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Let's just say that. I've been waiting because I was thinking the album was going to come out and maybe I was like, oh, okay, maybe I can just get first impressions. No, the album's still not out. Upset. But it's okay. You know what I mean? Let bygones be bygones. Let's just say, that album better be up by tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:06:34 That's all I got to say, right? I don't really want to commit any criminal acts, but as far as the deluxe edition, I will like it on my DSPs because as far as SOS, I think we can honestly say that's one of the greatest albums of all time. So Siza makes very phenomenal music. And then the handouts that she gives out as far as featuring on some tracks and basically boosting those up, even with my favorite rapper, Drake, I have to acknowledge that. has Siza on his album for all the dogs twice, not once but twice. Kendrick has Siza on his album, not once but twice. Siza ultimately, when it comes to numbers, is one of the top streaming R&B artists in the world. So whenever she says she's going to put out a deluxe edition, and then more info comes out,
Starting point is 00:07:34 basically talking about how this album not only is going to add to the original body of work that is SOS, but now it has its own entire label that is Laina and is said to be a whole entire project by itself. So now our expectations are through the roof because we're looking at this as a new album. Like we're not even looking at this as a deluxe edition anymore. People keep saying deluxe edition, we're looking at this as an entirely new. high quality audio adventure. That's what we're waiting for. We still haven't received it.
Starting point is 00:08:12 So this is what I was wanting to do. Basically, as far as Cizza, I wanted to go through all the times I cover Cizzo because as far as Luther, Gloria, Sesame Street, the song that Cizza had with Flo Millie and Cardi B, her track Diamond Boy.
Starting point is 00:08:28 And then, of course, the track with Drake, Slime you out, Cizza and Justin B, as far as the official music video for snooze. Sizzah, Travis Scott and Future, as far as telekinesis, like I keep saying, they've been using Sizzas.
Starting point is 00:08:45 We're not using like in a bad, well, I don't know. As far as using her musical talents, they definitely are industry, budding it up with Sizzah because she's putting up some of the most monumental numbers as far as in the R&B genre, right? Then you have Siza Little T.J. Black, right? Calling my phone.
Starting point is 00:09:04 That's back in 2023. Kill Bill with Doja Cat. That's back. Well, yeah, that's last year. So Siza and Lizzo was special. So you just realized the amount of handouts that Siza has given out to the music community. And we just want to hear your music because we know that whatever you gave them, you could do 10 times more on your own album. Because now, essentially, you have to put both verses the bridge and the chorus.
Starting point is 00:09:34 So now we get more offerings from Siza And she's already shown throughout the past two to three years that she can That is capable of putting out some of the greatest R&B music ever created So that be it said obviously y'all can tell that I am very excited for SZA's addition to SOS But the ultimate question When will we get the deluxe? And I guess the world may never know because we are closing in on PM and the deluxe is still not in our DSS piece as of me recording this so that bit said click my link tree in my bio let me know one of my
Starting point is 00:10:11 social medias what do you think about ciza announcing her deluxe basically dropping later on in the am it's definitely later in the am so we're pushing the pm so hopefully she's not pushing ls as far as lies because uh that would not be pushing p and hopefully it was not too confusing for y'all anyways click my link tree in my bio let me know one of my social medias how excited are you for the cizza deluxe And at the end of the day, what is your favorite offering from Siza in the past two years when it comes to her R&B music?
