Little Simz Shines On Smooth New Drop “Young” Ahead Of Highly Anticipated Album 'Lotus'

Little Simz is three-for-three with the rollout for her upcoming album Lotus, and her latest single “Young” might be the most soul-soothing of the bunch. On this mellow, introspective track, the UK lyricist eases into her pocket with a laid-back confidence, bringing warmth, grace, and clarity to a record that celebrates growth and the beauty of coming into your own. Originally slated to arrive May 9, Lotus was pushed back to June 6 due to Simz’s upcoming role in a major film project. While the delay was unexpected, fans haven’t been left starving—the singles so far have delivered everything we’ve come to expect from the North London powerhouse: thoughtful bars, elite production, and genre-defying artistry. “Young” is no different. It’s breezy, meditative, and feels like the calm before the storm of what’s sure to be one of the year's most talked-about albums. If this latest drop is any indication, Lotus might just be Simz’s most emotionally rich work to date.
