SZA Supports Montreal Artist Loonsba by Buying Sculpture Following Troll Comments: 'Love This Piece'

The R&B sensation purchased two balloon dog sculptures from Montreal-based artist Loonsba (Adam Nassih) after an online troll commented that he would match anyone who "actually buys this crap."

SZA is uplifting Canadian art while shutting down the trolls.

The chart-topping R&B singer flaunted a colourful new balloon dog sculpture on her Instagram today (Oct. 15) and shared the backstory behind it with her audience, explaining that she purchased them to support an artist who was being trolled online. The SOS singer bought two pieces in different sizes, both made by Montreal-based artist Adam Nassih, known under the alias Loonsba.
