In a new conversation in Interview, SZA and Chappell Roan engaged in a candid conversation where they discussed the challenges of fame and the emotional toll of public perception. SZA asked Chappell if she cares at all about the backlash and criticism she receives. “I didn’t, until people started hating me for me and not for my art,” Roan replied. “When it’s not about my art anymore, it’s like, ‘They hate me because I’m Kayleigh, not because they hate the songs that I make.’ That’s when it changed.” SZA expressed relief in knowing that Roan cared despite appearing “superhuman” from the outside. “I feel deeply relieved by what you just said because I felt like I was a punk b**tch for feeling the way that I feel, because I’m just like, ‘Oh, maybe I’m just not cut out for this sh*t.’ Because everybody else who’s cut out for this sh*t doesn’t give a f**k. But that’s not true.” (Rolling Stone)
