UK Rapper Little Simz Releases New Single Young

Little Simz, the acclaimed UK rapper, is set to release her sixth studio album, Lotus, on June 6, delayed from its original May 9 date due to her involvement in a film project. The latest single from the album, “Young,” marks a stylistic shift to a more lighthearted and playful tone, contrasting with the more serious tracks previously released like “Flood” and "Free." The song features a quirky, unconventional production and showcases Simz adopting a character with a punk-like spirit, which she describes as a fun, light moment. The music video for “Young” reunites her with director Dave Meyers, their collaboration following the success of the video for "Gorilla." Simz’s upcoming album Lotus promises to be dynamic, reflecting her continued boundary-pushing creativity. She will also perform at major UK venues this autumn and participate in the Meltdown Festival alongside notable artists.
