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.
