SZA’s Solange Directed “The Weekend” Video Looks Like Cranes In A Parking Deck And Fans Are Dragging It
SZA Fans Think Solange Sabotaged Her Video For ‘The Weekend”
The Weekend is one of the biggest songs of 2017, with SZA even being Grammy nominated for the Best R&B performance for the tune. It’s a fresh, messy, accidental side chick riff–yet none of that is presented in the visual for the song. SZA allowed Solange, (who directs like a performing arts school freshman) to take over curation of The Weekend’s video and folks are not impressed.
"You're like 9 to 5, I'm the weekend."
Watch @SZA beautifully dance around to "The Weekend," one of our favorite tracks off of her debut album 'Ctrl.' https://t.co/DQDFTUM7Wy pic.twitter.com/pCWVlvFnW0

The whole video is SZA swinging her clip in weave on a balcony and dancing in a parking garage dressed scantily. Where are the sidechchicks, sis? Some think that SZA was going artsy-fartsy with the song because because it caught so much main-chick slander and others think Solange was really trying to end her lil fame by directing a boring-azz video.

Folks are furious with this glass half empty depiction of The Weekend and they dragged the hell out of it. Hit the flip to see.
SZA…..sis…..that is really what you gave us for your The Weekend music video…..dancing in a fucking parking garage? No side chicks? No fine ass leading man? Just throwing your arms around on top of a building? pic.twitter.com/6K3XYeJO7D

“From a a geometrically stunning balcony to an empty parking garage and an eccentrically-decorated warehouse, SZA maintains an impressive balance of fleshy and heavenly as she channels her inner sensual fairy.” Fuck

SZA passed up an opportunity to give us an old school 90's/00's R&B music video with a dramatic storyline and over the top acting for The Weekend music video. Somebody should've put Usher or R Kelly in charge 😭

I wanted 3 different SZA’s, sorted by lacefronts and varying careers coming together the set up their dirty-lying-cheating s/o re:The Weekend. Something clever. Gosh, Solange.

Twitter: SZA has got to make a video for The Weekend. All that drama would have to translate into a dramatic visual!

SZA had the opportunity to give us that 2000s video vibe, where videos ACTUALLY mattered, had story lines and was a lit mini movie. All the visuals/dancing was very Solange, and not fitting. It didn’t fit the song at all, and was SUPER FORCED. but ok. song still slaps.

I am disappointed in Sza. She made that cheating ass song but no cheating in the video. She is low key a pick me so she probably didn’t wanna really take it there.

Why is SZA alone in an empty parking deck doing a bunch of shampoo commercial spin moves what type of maybe it's Maybelline madness is this

Sza should've directed her own music video. Like it could've been her and dude in bed then him leaving and her going through her week blowing up dudes phone, him ignoring her, then Thursday come and she start getting ready for a dick appointment. So easy.
