The world of SZA‘s SOS just keeps getting bigger, with the hitmaker adding four new tracks to her sophomore album’s Lana deluxe edition Sunday (Feb. 9) — just before her Super Bowl Halftime Show performance with Kendrick Lamar.

Tacked onto disc 1 of SOS Deluxe: Lana, the four new songs include “Joni” — a collaboration with Don Toliver — “Take You Down” and “PSA.” Also on the new tracklist is a solo version of “Open Arms,” which originally featured Travis Scott on the first iteration of SOS.


The new songs come more than two years after SOS was first released in December 2022, after which it spent 10 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. After SZA released the Lana deluxe version of the album in December 2024 — adding 15 new songs to the set — SOS returned to the top of the chart for an additional two weeks, bringing it to 12 total nonconsecutive weeks at the summit so far.

About 10 days after Lana dropped, SZA told fans on X that she still wanted to retroactively add the new songs to the set. At the time, she expected them — plus updated mixes of songs already on the track list — to arrive Jan. 6, telling followers, “Thank yall for your patience.”

The added tracks also come just before SZA is expected to take the stage with Dot during the Compton rapper’s headlining halftime showcase midway through the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Philadelphia Eagles game at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. Lamar announced in late January that his longtime friend and frequent collaborator — with whom he most recently teamed up on “Luther” and “Gloria” on November album GNX — would be accompanying him on the field. The highly anticipated performance will serve as a precursor to their upcoming joint tour through North America, which will kick off in Minnesota April 19.

Here’s Why ‘Shake It to the Max’ Was Deemed Ineligible at the 2026 Grammys — And Why Its Label Calls the Decision ‘Devoid of Any Common Sense’

Representatives from the Recording Academy and gamma. CEO Larry Jackson comment on one of this year's most shocking Grammy snubs.

Few phrases define the year in music and culture like Moliy’s scintillating directive to “shake it to the max.” The Ghanaian singer’s sultry voice reverberated across the globe, blending her own Afropop inclinations with Jamaican dancehall-informed production, courtesy of Miami-based duo Silent Addy and Disco Neil. Originally released in December 2024, Moliy’s breakthrough global crossover hit ascended to world domination, peaking at No. 6 on the Global 200, thanks to a remix featuring dancehall superstars Shenseea and Skillibeng. Simply put, “Max” soundtracked a seismic moment in African and Caribbean music in 2025.

Given its blockbuster success, “Shake It to the Max” was widely expected to be a frontrunner in several categories at the 2026 Grammys. In fact, had the song earned a nomination for either best African music performance or best global music performance, many forecasters anticipated a victory. So, when “Shake It to the Max” failed to appear on the final list of 2026 Grammy nominees in any category earlier this month (Nov. 7), listeners across the world were left scratching their heads — none more than gamma. CEO Larry Jackson.
