Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

8. Little SimzGrey Area

Authenticity is such a huge part of Little Simz music and this record in particular. It sounds very individual. I love the production of this album, right from the beginning it’s so raw and had these sounds which you don’t expect thrown in throughout the record. It’s multi-layered yet manages to always feel direct and minimalistic. Each of little aspect of the record whether it’s the sounds or her voice, has its own chance to shine.
