It's been nearly a year since Little Simz blessed us with her project, Stillness In Wonderland. Although she's been on the road throughout the year, she's also been working on her follow-up to her 2017 project. Now, Little Simz comes through with her first solo single in 10 months called, "Offence."
Little Simz is back with her new song, "Offence" which she premiered earlier today on Beats1. The new song serves as the first single off of her forthcoming project. Simz explained to Zane Lowe that her upcoming project is the first time she's strictly worked with live instrumentation.
"I guess this is my first project where I've kind of worked with only real live instrumentation. And for 'Offence' anyway, I wanted it to feel very unapologetic, very ballsy and I think times like this especially... It's not time to be silent." Simz explained.
Quotable Lyrics
You do not scare me, no you are not a threat
Anyone that want it, they can get it in a flash, no sweat
If you're gonna talk on my name, least say it with your chest
But my team on deck, takin' out all pawns
And my knight get your queen in check, mate
