SZA Reveals Anxiety Amid Successful Grand National Tour with Kendrick Lamar

SZA, co-headlining the highly successful Grand National Tour with Kendrick Lamar, has openly discussed her struggles with performance anxiety and imposter syndrome, fearing fans attended primarily to see Lamar.

Despite these challenges, SZA has managed to overcome her anxiety by embracing spirituality and exploring concepts like the 'laws of magic,' which has transformed her mindset toward performing. The tour, which has broken records including a $9.1 million gross from the opening night in Minneapolis, showcases both artists' strong appeal and collaboration. Fans have expressed support for SZA, appreciating her candidness and presence on stage alongside Lamar. As the tour continues in North America and prepares for stops in Europe and Australia, SZA's personal growth and resilience remain a noteworthy aspect of the tour's narrative.
