SZA has dropped a new song, ‘Save the Day’, which is taken from the soundtrack to the upcoming Disney-Pixar movie Hoppers. Listen to it below.
‘Save the Day’ starts out clearly echoing SZA’s instant classic ‘Good Days’, which makes sense, considering co-directors Daniel Chong and Nicole Grindle used that song and ‘Saturn’ as placeholder music in the film’s credits. “I think there was an intuitiveness in talking with SZA that when she saw the movie, I think she immediately knew what the movie needed,” Chong said in an interview with Laughing Place. “She understood Mabel as a character immediately.” The film’s art director Anna Scott has described the 19-year-old main character as “a little bit more androgynous, very passionate, she’s supposed to be tough, wild.”
According to a synopsis, Hoppers takes place in a world where “scientists have discovered how to ‘hop’ human consciousness into lifelike robotic animals.” It’s set for release on March 6.
