SZA Takes Stand Against Concert Chaos, Threatens Shutdown Over Flying Objects
SZA Takes Stand Against Concert Chaos, Threatens Shutdown Over Flying Objects
In recent times, a disturbing trend has marred concert experiences worldwide: fans hurling random objects at their beloved performers during live shows. This reckless behavior not only poses serious safety risks but also undermines the enjoyment for everyone involved. Despite the alarming consequences, artists like Drake, Coi Leray, GloRilla, and Latto have found themselves dodging unexpected projectiles on stage. Joining this unfortunate list is SZA, who recently faced a similar ordeal during a performance in Australia.
A viral clip circulating online captures the “Kill Bill” songstress directly addressing the unruly crowd in Australia, calling out individuals for tossing objects at her. With unwavering determination, SZA firmly warns that she won’t hesitate to halt the concert if the misconduct persists. “I will leave,” she asserts, emphasizing her stance against such dangerous antics. “Do not throw up any cell phones, I’m a person. That’s cr*zy.”
Unsurprisingly, fans have rallied behind SZA, commending her for standing up against the hazardous behavior. Comments flooding platforms like The Jasmine Brand echo the sentiment, condemning the trend of object throwing at concerts. “Y’all need to stop this weird trend of throwing things at people at concerts,” urges one Instagram user, reflecting the collective frustration. Another commenter echoes the sentiment, emphasizing the disruption caused by such antics: “Stop the whole show, ain’t nobody got time for that.”
SZA’s bold response to the incident mirrors a growing intolerance among artists towards such disruptions. Just last month, Nicki Minaj retaliated during her Pink Friday 2 tour, flinging an object back into the crowd after narrowly avoiding a collision with her head. The incident even drew parallels to Cardi B’s infamous reaction, where she tossed a microphone at an audience member last summer for dousing her with a drink.
The question arises: Should this bizarre trend of hurling objects at performers come to an end? SZA’s decisive action in Australia serves as a resounding call for concertgoers to respect the safety and dignity of artists on stage. Share your thoughts on SZA’s stance and the need to curb this concerning trend in the comments below. Stay tuned to Honk Magazine for further updates on this evolving story.

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”
Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.
Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.
If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.
The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.

NOAH. captures the unspoken signals in enchanting R&B track “That’s Bless”
“That’s Bless” captures the unspoken late-night message, the smile that was exchanged from afar, and the feeling you sense but are afraid to say. NOAH. offers a song with a smoky R&B feel and lyrics that capture unspoken tension, firmly in the realm of emotional ambiguity, where connection is clear but not defined.
This piece concerns the subtle discomfort of mixed signals and quiet longings, when looks say more than words ever could. NOAH. handles the theme with restraint, letting the chemistry simmer rather than explode. NOAH.’s delivery shows a confident gentleness, recognizing that some feelings don’t need strict definitions to be real.
In “That’s Bless,” he captures the essence of connection and the compelling allure that endures, even when both parties pretend it is not there. The composition is based on real-life events, and it acknowledges that specific attachments endure in the heart long after one has persuaded oneself of having progressed.
“That’s Bless” is at the crossroads of closeness and distance, clarity and confusion. The song doesn’t resolve the tension it talks about, and that’s what makes it so powerful. It sums up the connection we say we don’t want but keep coming back to in memory, rhythm, and pulse.
