Little Simz Shares Nostalgia-Driven "101 FM" From Upcoming Third Album


December 05, 2018

Having dropped "Offence" and "Boss" in quick succession back in September, Little Simz is back with another taste of her upcoming third album. Work on the album is reportedly still underway, so a release date hasn't been confirmed yet, but for now we've got one more taster to content ourselves with.

The latest offering is "101 FM", a bleepy, minimal piece of rap that wears its nostalgia proudly on its sleeve through a whirlwind tour of her story so far. Over an instrumental that makes sonic nods to the same video games she name checks in her bars, Simz plunges us back through time to her days spent playing Crash Bandicoot on the PS2, studying the lyrics of Busta Rhymes and Dizzee Rascal, and working with Avelino.

Updated on June 13: the official video has now landed.
