An exploration of the dualities of love and fear, “Free” was written as a poem first. “Love will never judge you because of your pain”, Simz raps over the cinematic production guided by Miles Clinton James. The track follows the first single “Flood”, which united two singular voices in Obongjayar and Moonchild Sanelly.
Little Simz is set to join previous Meltdown Festival curators such as Chaka Khan, Christine and the Queens, Grace Jones, Nile Rodgers, Robert Smith, David Byrne, Yoko Ono, Anohni, Massive Attack, Jarvis Cocker, Patti Smith and David Bowie.
Lotus, is set for release on 9 May via AWAL Recordings, and is available to pre-order now. Little Simz’ Meltdown will take place from 12-22 June 2025.
