A song that went viral two years ago. The video posted by the White House social media features images of detainment set to the part of the song when SZA sings \u201cIt\u2019s cuffing season.\u201d If you think that sucks, SZA agrees. On Twitter, the SOS singer wrote that the White House\u2019s current trend of \u201crage baiting artists for free promo is PEAK DARK.\u201d She added that the technique is \u201cEvil n Boring.\u201d SZA\u2019s manager Punch also came out against the video, writing \u201cTrying to provoke artist to respond in order to help spread propaganda and political agendas is nasty business.
