Little Simz - Drop 7 (EP)
Having recently been awarded 3 BRIT Award Nominations for Album of The Year, Artist of The Year and Hip-Hop/Grime/Rap Act, and four MOBO Award Nominations including a Best Hip-Hop Act win, today, Little Simz has released an EP of new material, “Drop 7”.
Simz has peppered her unparalleled career with a series of short and succinct projects, “Drop 7” follows the rap iconoclast’s “Drop 6”, with 2024 also marking 10 years since she shared “Drop 1” in August of 2014.
Ever evolving and forward-facing, the surprise 7-track EP sees Simz deftly weave her trademark introspective lyricism with some of the most experimental, club-oriented beats of her career, provided by esteemed producer Jakwob.
Little Simz is the boundary-breaking lyricist who leads the way on her own terms. A multi-award winner - collecting Brit Awards, MOBOs and an Ivor Novello - across mixtapes/EPs and five critically acclaimed albums, Simz' music documents her story, her journey, her becoming - and in turn, her generation. 2021’s Mercury Music Prize winning record “Sometimes I Might Be Introvert” catapulted Simz, landing in the top 5 of the Official Album chart, followed 2022’s surprise drop of “NO THANK YOU”, a left field turn which was deeply honest and utterly propulsive. 2023 saw Simz continue to carve her own lane as an acclaimed actor, returning in the final series of the Netflix drama series Top Boy, and play her biggest UK, European and US live shows to date, to a rapturous reception and 5 star reviews.
Little Simz continues to level up and “Drop 7” is just the next puzzle piece. Watch this space for much more in the coming months.
