Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
SZA goes to summer camp in her new video for 'Broken Clocks'.
SZA is a summer camp counselor in the video for her single, 'Broken Clocks'.
"Camp Ctrl" is the setting for the video, which SZA co-directed with Dave Free.
'Broken Clocks' is the fourth single off her debut studio album, 'Ctrl'.
The video pays homage to Spike Lee's 'Wake Up' scene in the musical comedy, 'School Daze'.

Scenes include typical camp activities such as roasting marshmallows, swimming, and food fights. SZA is also seen jumping on a trampoline.
'Broken Clocks' was released in 2017, but remains a fan-favourite, which explains why SZA thought it was worthy of a music video.
The New York Times summed up the song in one sentence.
"'Broken Clocks' enfolds SZA amid blurry keyboard tones and a watery sample of men's voices as she ponders memories of an old romance that still haunts her," Jon Pareles said in a review.
SZA has another song making headlines around the globe.
Her collaboration with Kendrick Lamar, 'All the Stars', continues to be a major success on the charts.
The 'Black Panther' soundtrack is currently at number two on the Coca-Cola Top 40.
