SZA Turns an Art Troll Into a Reason to Shop: ‘Being a Hater Gets Expensive, Ain’t It?’
The Grammy winner came across a critic challenging people to buy Adam Nissah's colorful balloon sculptures & decided to call their bluff.
R&B singer SZA has turned an online troll's hateful comments into a chance to support another artist. While reviewing artist Adam Nassih's colorful balloon animal sculptures, a critic challenged people to buy his work, even offering to match a purchase. SZA, impressed by Nassih's creations, decided to step in and provide some support for the artist, calling out the hater's over-the-top behavior.
In a follow-up Instagram post, SZA posed with one of Nassih's sculptures and explained how the encounter happened. Initially wanting the most expensive piece, she actually purchased a smaller one. Although it's uncertain whether the malicious commenter followed through on their challenge, SZA shared a message to those who find tearing down someone else's artwork worth their time.
"Being a hater gets expensive, ain't it?" she wrote, a statement that aligns perfectly with the creative spirit that has propelled SZA's own career forward.
