The tour began in December 2022, right after the album’s release, with 18 North American concerts. Due to tremendous demand, SZA extended the tour with two extra legs, totaling 15 gigs in Europe and 21 more in North America.

The tour was a mash-up of theatrical and cinematic inspirations. The goal was to provide the audience with an emotional experience. There were a lot of her fans in the crowd. There was an NBA star’s wife also attending the concert.

Each event lasted around 90 minutes and included a set list of over 30 songs. However, most of the tracks were from her SOS album, as well as several singles from her debut studio album, Ctrl. Surprise guest appearances by musicians with whom she had previously cooperated were a highlight. Omar Apollo, Raye, and D4vd were among the opening acts for each leg of the tour. The visual theme of the performance was maritime, with stage setups featuring a dock, a fishing trawler, a lighthouse, and even a seabed.

Why is Draymond Green missing the regular season games?

Draymond Green has missed the Golden State Warriors‘ second consecutive regular-season game due to an ankle sprain he suffered during training camp. Although he resumed five-on-five exercises, Green is being cautious in order to maintain his conditioning and reduce the chance of re-injury. Green’s importance to the squad is apparent, particularly on defense. He is one of the NBA’s top defenders and acts as a defensive quarterback for Coach Steve Kerr. Without Green in the lineup, the Warriors are more vulnerable to offensive tactics, leaving them vulnerable to cuts and screens.

The Warriors will need to adjust to a different sort of challenge given by the Sacramento Kings’ quickness in their upcoming game, making Green’s defensive skills even more severely needed. Adapting to a small-ball rotation might be the difference between restraining threats like De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis and preserving their competitive edge.
