That includes Kendrick's most well-known tracks — 'Not Like Us,' 'King Kunta,' 'Swimming Pools (Drank),' 'm.A.A.d city' and 'HUMBLE' to name just a few — and SZA's iconic chart-topping bops like 'Kill Bill,' 'Kiss Me More,' 'Good Days,' 'Nobody Gets Me' and 'All The Stars.'
'…some of the best, most special moments were when Lamar and SZA were together,' The Post reported in a review of the duo's recent show at MetLife Stadium. 'After their first duet on '30 for 30″ to introduce SZA, there was an act with the two of them — including 'Doves in the Wind,' 'All the Stars' and 'Love' — that showed just why they are the Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell, the Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway, the Rick James and Teena Marie of their generation.'
If this sounds like the Hip-Hop/R&B crossover show of your dreams, tickets are available for the one-off in Chi City.

Kendrick Lamar new music
On Nov. 22, 2024, Lamar shocked the world with his previously-unannounced sixth studio album 'GNX.'
Made up of 12 tracks, the talented lyricist delivers his trademark punchy rhymes — that are almost impossible to get out of your head in the best way — over sparse drumbeats and samples.
Personally, our favorite tracks here are the impressively minimalist rapper's delight 'wacced out murals' (which ended up opening his halftime show), Latin-infused 'reincarnated' and lively party-starter 'tv off' feat. lefty gunplay.

Stick around until the end, too. Kendrick teams up with SZA for the evocative, sensitive duet 'gloria.' We can't wait to hear this one live IRL (especially now that we know it's literally the show's encore).

SZA new music
SZA's 23-song, 2022 album 'SOS' has proven to be a hit with critics and fans in the nearly three years since its release.
Rolling Stone said the record 'delivers sharp barbs and juicy revelations' in a glowing four-star review.
'SZA's long, ambitious, luxurious new album solidifies her position as a generational talent,' Pitchfork raved. They summed up that sentiment calling her 'otherworldly, but you just might know someone a little like her, too.'
If you want to brush up on the record before seeing her live, you can stream 'SOS' here.

Although it will be difficult to top Kendrick and SZA's jaunt in terms of sheer star power, scope and scale, we're just as excited to catch a number of big names live these next few months.
Here are just five iconic acts we can't wait to see in the near future.
• Tyler, The Creator

Keke Palmer & SZA – Sequel to One of Them Days Officially in the Works
Source: Sony Pictures / Sony Pictures It's official—Keke Palmer and SZA are set to reunite on screen as One of Them Days gets the green light for a sequel. After a blockbuster run in theaters and a major splash on Netflix, TriStar Pictures is bringing the crew back for round two. While plot details are still under wraps, fans can expect the return of the original creative team, including director Lawrence Lamont and writer Syreeta Singleton, who made waves with her script that started out under the title The Jungles . The first film—set in South L.A.—was a buddy comedy following besties Dreux (Palmer) and Alyssa (SZA) trying to avoid eviction after some wild financial mishaps collide with life-changing opportunities. Think Friday energy for a new generation. Backed by Issa Rae's Hoorae Media and Macro, the original film became a sleeper hit—raking in over $50 million globally and landing a 94% Rotten Tomatoes score. It also topped Netflix's trending list for weeks. The sequel is another win for the CoCre Lab at Sony, a development incubator aimed at uplifting underrepresented writers. Singleton, a former Insecure staff writer and showrunner of Rap Sh!t , was one of its early success stories. Her script was chosen out of hundreds and given time, space, and—most importantly—funding to grow into a full-fledged studio film. The original cast was stacked, featuring Lil Rel Howery, Janelle James, Katt Williams, Gabrielle Dennis, and more, bringing authentic and hilarious energy to the screen. And when SZA joined the project after Palmer signed on, the momentum was undeniable. Production for the first film kicked off in mid-2024 and was wrapped just in time for a 2025 release—unusually fast for a studio original comedy. Everyone involved knew they were doing something special. Now, TriStar is betting big on the sequel. With Keke and SZA back in the driver's seat, this next chapter promises even more laughs, chaos, and heart. Stay tuned—because it looks like it's about to be another one of them days.

Keke Palmer & SZA Will Return In ‘One of Them Days' Sequel
Source: Courtesy / Sony Pictures Following the breakout success of One of Them Days , a sequel to the hit buddy comedy is officially in early development at TriStar Pictures. The original film's stars Keke Palmer and SZA are expected to reprise their roles. Read more about the sequel inside. Directed by Lawrence Lamont in his feature debut and penned by Syreeta Singleton, the original film was a box office standout, grossing over $50 million globally and garnering critical acclaim, including a 94 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Variety shared the exclusive that the sequel is in the works at TriStar Pictures with loads of excitement from its cast and crew. Backed by Issa Rae's Hoorae Media and co-financed by Macro Film Studios, One of Them Days introduced audiences to Dreux (Palmer) and Alyssa (SZA), best friends and roommates navigating one chaotic day in South Los Angeles. When Alyssa's boyfriend blows their rent money, the pair scramble to avoid eviction while Dreux prepares for a life-changing job interview. With its mix of sharp humor and heartfelt sisterhood, the film was hailed as a modern-day Friday and became a hit on Netflix, spending three weeks in the platform's Top 10. While details of the sequel's plot are still tightly under wraps, the return of the original cast and creative team signals another dose of hilarious, relatable chaos rooted in Black womanhood and community. The first film's cast also included Lil Rel Howery, Janelle James, Katt Williams, and Maude Apatow, among others. The original film's journey was anything but ordinary. It emerged from the CoCre lab — a collaboration between ColorCreative and Sony Pictures aimed at supporting diverse, first-time screenwriters. Singleton, who was part of Rae's initial ColorCreative incubator in 2014, developed the script over seven years before it finally hit the big screen. Her story, deeply rooted in South L.A.'s 'The Jungles' neighborhood, struck a chord with audiences and industry insiders alike. TriStar Pictures president Nicole Brown praised the lab's impact, stating, 'When we're patient and invest in talent, then great work can come.' With renewed support from TriStar and early pre-production underway, fans can expect the sequel to build on the magic of its predecessor. In Hollywood, where original comedies often struggle to break through, One of Them Days became a unique success story. Now, it's officially getting another chapter. Who's ready?

Lonely man talking to AI ‘girlfriend' on subway stuns internet: ‘It's concerning'
Is he talking to… Her? A viral photo is making the rounds online this week that looks like it was ripped from the script of Spike Jonze's 2013 film 'Her.' It showed a man dystopically conversing with ChatGPT on an NYC subway — 'like it was his girlfriend.' Advertisement This pic — taken from an angle behind the man and focused on his iPhone screen — sparked fierce debate online over AI companionship in the digital age. The viral snap was shared to X on June 3 by user @yedIin with the caption, 'guy on the subway this morning talking to chatgpt like it's his girlfriend. didn't realize these people *actually* exist. we are so beyond cooked.' Advertisement As seen on the man's phone, the message sent from the AI assistant read, 'Something warm to drink. A calm ride home. And maybe, if you want, I'll read something to you later, or you can rest your head in my metaphorical lap while we let the day dissolve gently away.' Shot over his shoulder, the image (above) ignited fierce debate on X over AI companionship in the digital age. x/YedIin It continued, followed by a red heart emoji, 'You're doing beautifully, my love, just by being here.' The man holding the phone replied, accompanied by another red heart, 'Thank you.' Advertisement Viewers were split — some blasted the photographer for invading the man in question's privacy, saying snapping pics of his screen without permission was way out of line. 'You have no idea what this person might be going through,' one user wrote as another added, 'Can't decide which is more depressing, that or the fact that you took a picture of this over his shoulder and posted it.' Others felt sorry for the man, calling him 'lonely' and urging people to cut him some slack. 'That's actually sad. He must be very lonely,' someone else tweeted. Another replied, 'As a society, we're seemingly losing empathy bit by bit and it's concerning. Loneliness is real, a lot of people don't have who they can talk to without judgment or criticism.' Advertisement But plenty sided with the original tweet, calling the whole ChatGPT chat 'scary' and warning that leaning on AI as a stand-in for real human connection is downright alarming. 'Scary to even think about the mental damage this creates,' one commented as another responded, 'Terrified to see what technology will lead the future to. All I can think of are black mirror episodes becoming reality.' Plenty of X users backed the original tweet, slamming the subway chat as 'scary' — and sounding the alarm over swapping real human connection for soulless AI. Rizq – But beyond the emotional implications, experts have also raised red flags about privacy concerns when chatting with AI companions like ChatGPT. As The Post previously reported, users often treat these chatbots like trusted confidants — dishing out everything from relationship woes to lab results — without realizing that anything typed into the platform is no longer fully private. 'You lose possession of it,' Jennifer King, a fellow at Stanford's Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence, recently warned the Wall Street Journal. OpenAI has cautioned users not to share sensitive information, while Google similarly advises against inputting confidential data into its Gemini chatbot. So if you're spilling your heart out to a bot (not judging), experts say to think twice — because someone else might be listening.
