SZA’s hit single “Kill Bill” in 2022 marked a milestone in pop music with its eerie production and ominous lyrics that propelled it to the top of the charts. Reflecting on the song now, SZA admits that the lyrics were somewhat extreme. During a recent appearance on the webseries Chicken Shop Date, host Amelia Dimoldenberg brought up the No. 1 Billboard hit with the artist.
In the video clip, Dimoldenberg asks SZA about the lyrics of “Kill Bill,” particularly the line about killing an ex-partner. SZA acknowledges the intensity of the lyrics, saying she was expressing some random rage at the time. The conversation continues with Dimoldenberg questioning SZA about a line from the song suggesting a preference for jail over solitude.
SZA responds by saying that she would rather be alone than in jail, agreeing with the sentiment expressed in the song. The discussion sheds light on the creative process behind “Kill Bill” and the emotional depth that SZA brought to the track.
