*SZA says she’s guzzling steroids in an all-out attempt to get her damaged vocal cords back in operating order, but the medication is not working.
The singer was pulled from the lineup of the TDE (Top Dawg Entertainment) Championship Tour with Kendrick Lamar and Schoolboy Q earlier this week after label founder Anthony ‘Top Dawg’ Tiffith tweeted that her vocal cords were “swollen,” and that she needs to “rest her voice to prevent any permanent damage.”
SZA says she’s taking “as many steroids” as possible to heal her damaged pipes and has been trying to deal with the issue while “touring for 11 months.”
“This didn’t happen overnight,” she explained in a note on Instagram. “I’ve been troubleshooting for a while now and Usually steroids and pushing through help. They don’t this time. I’m not sick my voice just won’t f**king work (sic).”
She went on to apologize to fans for missing gigs in Arizona and New Mexico last week, after facing some criticism online before Tiffith announced the reason for her tour absence, and promised she was doing everything possible to get back onstage.
“If I don’t pause now I’ll be forced to pause permanently,” she continued. “I’m genuinely sorry for every face, voice, and energy field I won’t be touching! I’m literally taking as many steroids as I can to speed this up!! Its a waiting game and super weird to be blamed for stuff outta my control but I get it (sic)!”
The TDE Championship Tour, which kicked off May 4 in Vancouver, Canada, runs until June 16, when it wraps in Pittsburgh.
