#TWO WORLDS APART LITTLE SIMZ TV#

Back then as I studied young Simba on stage it felt like she was eagerly sussing out sounds and losing herself in the music as the French horns blared behind her.

#TWO WORLDS APART LITTLE SIMZ TV#

North London wordsmith Simbi, as she’s affectionately known to the bright lights and main players of the black British music, TV (she flexed her acting muscle in ‘Top Boy’ last year), and film scene, but Simba as I like to refer to her due to her wide-eyed wonder and experimentation of sounds as she sculpted her craft, which I was lucky enough to witness fleetingly first-hand, front row, back in 2017 as she performed as support act to veteran Grime MC Kano, on his ‘Made in The Manor’ tour. and in part due to life changing events, I’m currently navigating, but who am I to stop my fingers from finding freedom when they feel the need to type about an artist who has released an album akin to witnessing a historical event, so profound the album has the possibility to change with its clarity and authentic, interchangeable aural mood board. Some may have noticed or not, that I’ve entered into a self-imposed writing semi-retirement, in part due to feeling uninspired.
