“Little Simz’ surprise album NO THANK YOU offers a helping voice amid growing societal pressures”
“The UK rapper's latest delivers humor, charisma, and a lot of feels”
“righteous anger and restless experiments”
“Little Simz is sick of hearing that she’s “underrated”. In September 2021, she bluntly addressed the tag by asking her Twitter followers: “Why don’t you stop being sheep and change the narrative?” It was a curious yet revealing moment: seldom do our current crop of musicians take stock, or at least speak publicly, about their place in the scene. That’s without even mentioning how Simz is currently”
“Accolades be damned, the UK star blasts a music industry that has left her feeling drained, adding her voice to a chorus of Black British artists pushing back against the status quo.”
“NO THANK YOU often feels like a SIMBI epilogue, which is to say it's often excellent too.”
