I truly believe Little Simz is already a british icon, just waiting for everyone to catch up on her brilliance. Grey Area is a full body of art and one of the best albums of all time in my opinion. Can't wait for you to experience more- loving your reactions!

she is an icon in the true sense of the word. Icon is not the same as idol..it simply means "likeness". So she does represent Black British likeness through her art. I feel she has recycled an old classical model musically that people wasn't paying attention to because of whats popping on road and substandard shit. So through all the shallowness she came with depth and substance. If that becomes the normal then someone with return with some shallowness and take back the limelight. Its about doing what nobody else is doing.

This track doesn't even have 1 sample. Little Simz's advantage was always that she had her own team of strong in house producers. Whist most new artists have to make noise to get the attention of big name producers, or cover other peoples beats...Little Simz had a really unique, diverse and professional blend of live band and electronic production since the days she was releasing EPs and Mix tapes. This made her a uk rapper who sets herself apart in terms of album quality music. A lot of uk emcees kinda fell into the box of being "mixtape rappers" not really making cohesive and conceptual albums.

The orchestral elements of the track were recorded at the legendary Abbey Road studios in London. From the website: Salomon Ligthelm-directed video sees Simz (real name Simbi Ajikawo) rap and move expressively with a dance troupe inside London’s Natural History Museum. Spliced with it are archived shots of the civil rights movement, Black men being chased by police, and what appears to be old spools of Simz’ family home videos, among other images.

Considering most of the uk artist that Americans. are currently reacting too , have been in the game over 10 years And the newer U.K. artist that have only been around since 3 years already have a bar to aim for when it comes to making music or else they might as well not bother., as the competition is so peak

Plus, she made great use of video as a tool to draw the viewer in, instant vibe and awareness, instant call to war before any lyrics were spit.

Honestly I totally agree. When I first heard Simz I was seriously as taken aback just like you were. This really does go into that category of "too dope for normal human consumption." I feel like the only reason she isn't mainstream in America is because of her image. She's classy, strong, and intelligent. That just doesn't really fit in with the usual image people here have of female rappers as being sexually provacative or into partying or wrapped up in a scandal. She's just being honest and real and purposeful. I think her music could be a serious game changer if it does become popular over here.
