“Sesame Street” Taps SZA, Michael B. Jordan And More For Its 55th Season

SZA is set to appear in the star-studded 55th season of "Sesame Street," premiering Jan. 16 on Max.

On Thursday, the show announced that she’ll join Reneé Rapp, Michael B. Jordan and Samara Joy, among others, for music, lessons and more.

With new episodes dropping every Thursday on the streaming service — and later airing on PBS during the fall — fans can also look forward to a new song from the “Pretty Little Birds” singer.

According to ABC, she teamed up with Elmo for an “R&B-pop track about gratitude.”

The upcoming season of "Sesame Street" will follow SZA’s 2024 cameo with Cookie Monster.

Meanwhile, in April SZA is set to hit the road with Kendrick Lamar for their “Grand National Tour.”

Together, they’ll perform in cities like Houston, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Detroit and Toronto before wrapping up in Washington, D.C. on June 18.
