Little Simz's History
Little Simz, born Simbiatu “Simbi” Abisola Abiola Ajikawo, is a pioneering British rapper, singer and actress. Since her entry into the music scene, she has commanded a noteworthy place with her potent lyricism and insightful narratives. She has shown an exceptional quality in her music that spans various themes, and her live concerts are reflective of the same versatility, vibrancy, and compelling storytelling.
Born and raised in Islington, North London, Simz displayed a passion for performing arts from an early age. By the time she was nine, she had already started acting, and at fourteen she had begun rapping. Her school, St. Mary Magdalene Academy, was a supportive force in her early interest in music.
The young artist released her first mixtape in 2010 at the age of 16. Her first EP, "E.D.G.E", followed in 2014 which was a practical demonstration of her extraordinary talent. However, it was her debut album "A Curious Tale of Trials + Persons" released in 2015 that made the world sit up and pay attention.
However, as subversive and enticing as her studio recordings are, it's Little Simz's live performances that truly set her apart. Her shows are renowned for their vigor, dynamism and the raw passion she brings to the stage. Her concerts are an exhilarating mixture of funky rhythm, gripping lyrics, and Simz's electrifying stage presence.
One of her most memorable performances was at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland, where she captivated the audience with her forthright lyrics and distinctive sound. Equally noteworthy was her opening act for the Gorillaz at their 2017 concert in London, where her powerful performance drew praise from audiences and critics alike.
Her second album "Stillness in Wonderland," accompanied by a short film and comic book, was released in 2016 with an accompanying tour. Fans flocked to get tickets to be part of a unique, immersive experience that combined music, visual arts, and storytelling.
In 2019, she sold out her first headline show in London. The concert was a defining moment in her career as she performed to an adoring crowd at the iconic venue of The Roundhouse. Her mesmerizing performance and palpable connection with the crowd left an indelible mark, proving she was a force to be reckoned with.
Her third album, “GREY Area,” earned her a Mercury Prize nomination and won Best Independent Album at the AIM Independent Music Awards. It also gained her a global audience, led to sold-out shows worldwide and tickets for her performances became highly sought-after commodities.
Her concerts aren't just about showcasing her musical prowess; they're a platform for her to connect with her audience on a deeper level. The authenticity of her lyricism combined with her engaging performance style makes for an unforgettable experience.
Little Simz is not just selling concert tickets; she is inviting her audience on a journey through her personal experiences, societal observations, and her take on life. As she continues to evolve as an artist, her live shows remain a celebration of her ability to captivate her audience with her thought-provoking music and inspiring performances. The appeal of her concerts lies not just in her musicality but also in her ability to turn each performance into a compelling narrative, a testament to both her creative genius and her dynamic stagecraft.
