SZA shares soulful cover of Eminem's 'Lose Yourself'
Who needs therapy when you have SZA? 'Lose Yourself' in the singer's cover of Eminem's 2002 hit...
SZA put an interesting spin on one of Eminem's most popular songs - and her fans are ready for her to drop a rap cover album.
The singer-songwriter shared a clip of herself singing the rapper's Grammy Award-winning track, 'Lose Yourself'.
"You better lose yourself in the music / The moment, you own it, you better never let it go / You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow / This opportunity comes once in a lifetime," she sings.
It seems SZA was in her feels when she recorded the song. "U ever just cover Eminem on some tender s*** for feels?" she captioned the audio.
The 'Snooze' singer's cover was well received by music lovers, who begged her for more.
"Ima need an entire album of tender rap covers STAT," one follower wrote. Another Instagram user commented: "This woman makes everything shimmer."
Despite the rave reviews, SZA made it clear that she had no plans to release the cover as an official music project.
"Not on a project, Just for mental health," she said.
Eminem was also impressed with SZA's cover of his song. He left a wide-eyed emoji in the comments section.
