JorgeM Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Yes, Twitter vibes never translate to normal people. But I feel sorry for SZA, headlining Glastonbury is a very special moment and it's going to remain as big failure for her 2 6 9 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ONOPKA Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 (edited) she just isn't well established enough to be headlining a festival of this size tbh. with one successful album and a few collab hits it is way too soon if i were there i'd have gone to see justice instead Edited June 30 by ONOPKA 10 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandalore Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 (edited) This makes no sense? Was someone else performing at the same time? Edited June 30 by Mandalore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marla Singer Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Her sound was really messed up too, someone needs to get fired for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoisonedIvy Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Hmm. Dua doesn't FEEL much bigger than SZA but I guess if I'm being honest Dua has way more hits and they're all huge global smashes so it checks out I suppose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 confused how they would let this happen? also heard there were sound issues with the set which checks out with some of the videos i've seen, mess all around it seems. Spoiler random sidenote but if this turns into a whole thing and she ends up scrapping the album again right when it looks like we were about to get something i'm gonna be so pissed..

BlackoutZone Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 (edited) I honestly thought SOS era established her more globally, but I guess she must be resonating more with people who just don't go to festivals. When she headlined a festival here last year she was also said to have pulled the smallest crowd in years (the performance was great though, I loved it) Edited June 30 by BlackoutZone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquiddiamonds Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 (edited) Kill Bill is her only top 10 in the UK. Yeah she sells albums there, but one has to wonder if her R&B audience would pay the whole of Glastonbury just to catch SZA. How many other R&B artists were in the bill today? Usually festivals put similar acts in the same day so they can attract genre fans edit: i saw they kinda tried with Burna Boy and Janelle Monae performing before her from 5pm onwards. Although i must notice it was kinda abrupt coming from Shania Twain and others that performed earlier lol How was it the attendance for those two acts? I saw they put Avril at the same time as Janelle was headlining the Pyramid stage Edited June 30 by liquiddiamonds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the UK Dua has much broader appeal and has been on the radio since 2016. I think SZA is really only known by gen Z. Most 30+ people in the UK would probably have heard Kill Bill on the radio but have no idea who she is. SZA is massive in the US but I don't think she's really broken through in the UK and the pyramid stage is just too big for how popular she is here. Also glastonbury audience tends to be older and more into rock. 12 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also glastonbury audience tends to be older and more into rock. That's fair, I am in America so I knew my perception of her popularity wouldn't be globally accurate. If she wants to expand her global reach she'll probably have to dabble in more pop/dance tracks, kind of like Rihanna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropical Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Surprising, SZA is a huge name and is coming off the back of a breakthrough successful area (into the mainstream with radio hits). I wonder what other factors were at play here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burn Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 As someone from the UK, this isn't surprising as SZA isn't very well known here. She should be as she's one of the most talented artists out right now, so hopefully this makes her and her team realise that they need to focus more on building up her status internationally. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylena Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 At what time did she perform? Maybe people were just watching the England game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
