SZA Takes a Stand: Condemning the White House’s Actions

SZA criticizes the White House

Music News: SZA Slams White House

SZA has criticized White House officials for using one of her songs in an advert promoting their anti-immigration raids.

Representatives for Trumpâs administration posted a social media video earlier this week showing agents with Americaâs Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arresting immigrants.Â

To soundtrack the video, they used Big Boys, a song performed by SZA as part of a Saturday Night Live sketch in December 2022, and its lyrics about âcuffing seasonâ, a dating term used to describe single people finding a short-term partner for the colder months.Â

Alongside the clip, the White House reps noted their different interpretation of the lyrics, writing, âWe heard itâs cuffing szn. Bad news for criminal illegal aliens. Great news for America.â

The Kill Bill hitmaker responded by calling out the White House for using famous artistsâ music on their videos to provoke them into a public reaction and drawing more attention to their footage.Â

In response to their posts, White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told Variety in a statement, âThank you, SZA, for drawing even more attention to the tremendous work Americaâs ICE officers are doing by arresting dangerous criminal illegal aliens from American communities.â

SZA joins a growing list of artists who have called out the White House for using their songs in their videos.Â

Most recently, Sabrina Carpenter slammed them for using her hit Juno over a video montage of ICE raids.Â

âThis video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda,â she wrote on social media.
