It is an absolutely fantastic rabbit-hole!! Her old stuff bangs, her new stuff bangs.. I’m in awe of the sheer amount of quality music/writing/rapping ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Her song Introvert is so good too. One of the best UK rappers. She credits Lauryn Hill as a big inspiration. Ren actually played this song for us on stream a couple of years ago which was how I heard of her.
Ren loves Little Simz - Ren even references her lyrics in Masochist... follow me, follow me, follow me... you will find he uses her flow and the lyric from the track Venom in the last verse. ❤
Give Simz her flowers. She's released 3 multi award winning albums to date, she's unique, she ai'nt copying anyone. She also starred as Shelley in the Netflix series Top Boy and appears as herself in the film Venom: Let there be carnage. If you really want to see her flow, check out her Venom - A Colours Show, as others have suggested. She's British, born in London to Nigerian parents.
I thought we were giving her flowers this whole video ? 🤔 she’s very talented ! And when did we say she was copying anyone? You may have misconstrued the message
Awesome - thanks for reacting to this! BTW I think this is a Jurassic 5 beat. They’d sampled it from Summer Breeze by Ramsey Lewis, but the Little Simz version is an ode to Jurassic 5 imo, with that lo-fi sound. Concrete Schoolyard. But yeah, totally get the Tribe Called Quest reference - Lou Reed sample that was, though, I think.
This video references a number of classic videos too, on top of the lyrical and flow nods she gave. I won't say what, have fun figuring it out! I will say mostly or all 90s though to give you a headstart
So glad you did this she is fire 🔥 you should definitely check out nine and dex now - apparently the grandsons of pete and bas ! And their producers 🇬🇧

Why is it with you guys that the artist or song has to be like something else. At the beginning while she was paying homage to Kendrick. Which you missed she said pay homage to how we came up. Almost every scene pays homage to one rapper or another. The last scene pays homage to Lauryn Hill. BTW I think she's Nigerian. The accent is south londonesque.
That’s not the case with us. That’s the case with the artist we cover and that’s our style of reaction. Talking about the artist and the cool inside stuff we notice . Hope that clarifies everything ! 🙂
Lil Simz is so fucking underrated outside of the UK. She's a genuine genius.
Her song Venom colours live version is fantastic! Thanks for finding her.
Little Simz Introvert video is fire, and her Tiny Desk is a vibe!
The Tiny Desk is classssic, so good
Yeah you discovered Little Simz! Ren recommended her and I went down the Simz rabbit hole. she's amazing!

I STRONGLY recommend you listen to Dave- best rapper on the planet, a real poet.
Try heart attack or Lesley to get you started…… you WON’T regret it….
Do her song Venom, colours live version. It's SO cold.
Listen again. She said anSISters ❤
If you want another UK female MC on the come up, Cristale is great too.
Sounds good, thank you!

North London, I believe - Islington. But yes, born in London to Nigerian parents.
@@Mezzystar1 I knew she was from north London, it's just her accent I find to be south London. Think top boy. That's why I wrote esque.
@@vanburger Gottcha, I get what you mean now. ❤
