@@JackFate76The only rappers I can think of are the older school rappers, and even then she could hold her own with them, and with time she could surpass them. But as far as the current batch of US rappers? I can't think of any. Maybe JID? But even then I would say they are on par with each other rather than one being better. She is outstanding. I only discovered her today so I need to sit with her discography a while longer, but she is likely to end up in my top 10 favorites of all time. In the US our Golden Age of Hip Hop was the 90s and late 80s. I feel like now is the Golden Age of Hip Hop in the UK. Edit: never mind. I have been listening to her music all day now and I have to say I prefer her to JID. JID has the more impressive flow, but Simz has the more impressive songs, IMO. I am also a sucker for 90s Hip Hop and her music FEELS like 90s Hip Hop.

This track gets a lot of attention because of the gravitas that the producer Inflo gives it. Simz is incredible, and her nickname is Simbi (hence Simz), but this album is named after her: Sometimes I Might Be Introvert (SIMBI). Check out the rest of this project because it only gets better.
Yo crazy you reacting to lil simz now, loving the variety, Defo a top Uk rapper out there, Another one of her favourite songs for me is called 'Venom' I'd recommend checking it out
I think you're right that our attitude to obstacles can hinder us or inspire us. There are times though when folks are legit taken advantage of by the system, and sometimes no amount of mental reframing can change that. Enjoyed the reaction. Respect
Incredible artist, raise your daughters to be more like Little Simz, be confident themselves and be beholden to no one. Such a great catalogue of songs already. ❤❤❤
When she says “knocking down communities to re-up on properties” she’s referencing the gentrification of previously poor parts of London (e.g Islington, Hackney and east London in general). People are being priced out of their own communities as they are gentrified for the “suits” (as Simz calls them)
This is stunning. The core message I take away is that we're not alone, and remembering that, and staying in touch with our feelings, and having faith allows us to be strong and united.
YESSS, more Little Simz ASAP please. In the words of Kendrick Lamar: she is one of the best to do it right now. You literally cannot go wrong, she has had her last 3 albums be award nominated/winning - 3 for 3 epics pieces of work. Don’t get it twisted, Simbi is probably the best rapper in the UK right now, if she’s not in your top 5, your list is wrong. Introvert is a good introduction but not even in the top 10 best Little Simz tracks imho. And it is still this much fire! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Little Simz is unmatched at the moment imho in terms of the whole package: the expanse of her artistry in every area of what she does, a cadence, flows and narrative style of lyricism that translate and connect across countries, cultures and all ages… this woman is a King, believe. (Listen to more Simz, especially older stuff, that line will make sense 😅). Do more Simz and thank me later. You won’t be able to get enough: Boss Point & Kill Woman Venom Dead Body Good For What for starters
im seeing this video talking about all this classical art in pristine safe architecture depicting ppl of the past, icons of life captured, going thru moments of struggle and ecstasy and beauty,, while showing ppl today in black and white, protesting and dancing out the epic struggles and beauty they endure everyday, yet where is their representation in these institutions of culture? when is their time? its out in the streets and its now, banging on the doors for no sensible reason but with ironsure purpose, as it ever was with humanity,, i think its hard to see because its happening rn,, we dont know yet what the outcome will be, but i think most of us feel that everybody deserves to have their life slowed, relaxed down to a single image and gesture to mark the beauty in every hard and real life past passing arriving and future. the representation will be there in the future bcuz artists like little simz. i do know that. 🖼️🕸️🔦 i dunno if that makes sense or is just babble. im lil blazed🤷♂️
This artist is new for me, very impressive and captivating! I love her conviction in her lyrics and her rap style! Always amazed at the UK talent! Thank you BP for introducing Little Simz to me ❤
Yes! Great stuff. Would definitely suggest both her Colors drops, "Venom", for sure but "Backseat" is also good. I know you're a big soul guy so I would definitely check out "Selfish" w/ Cleo Sol. Her back catalog is great. The Grey Album is fantastic.
Lil simz Is truly one of this generations greatest mc s. Mail or female, and she is above a lot of her peers this generation and really deserves more attention credit over here in the US. Her last rour planned for here got canceled dur to lack of sales i heard, and that's disheartening.
I lived in Cali for 12 years, had fun.... , recently moved back to the UK, love the UK, maybe because I was born here. UK is cool, especially if you have time to experience it. BJJ in Cali is way bigger.... miss that big time....
There’s a wealth of Simz material to mine on her albums, I would recommend checking out her Venom freestyle next. Insanely talented girl. On another note, P. Check out Durty Goodz. Please. So much fire 🔥
She's one of the greatest rappers/lyricists in the world actually. She's not like crass American female rappers, she's highly intelligent & has incredible poise & class. Her last 2 albums are masterpieces. Both worth checking out - we in the UK value word-play, we don't value the US type of bling mentality, we move with subtlety & take pride in our language & our humour. London is one of the biggest melting pots in the world but our attitude is very different to that of Americans, we don't like brash...
I'm getting stuck on the footage they used in this music video. I still remember the police in my area doing drive-bys on innocent bystanders with pepper balls and my friends getting arrested and disappearing for days.
You should react to some Brits performances (it's like the UK version of the Grammys). I think you will like them: Little Simz, Stormzy or Dave live at the Brits. It's NEXT level!
Okay, my comment seems to have been deleted three times now or just not posted, since trying yesterday🤷🏻♂. Hopefully, won't appear multiple times suddenly! Really pleased to see that you have finally caught onto Little Simz. I commented on one of your Ren videos last week saying that I was surprised you haven’t caught onto her. When I first heard her, I had the same reaction as to what everybody else is currently having when they first hear Ren. Then of course, I also caught on to Ren more recently ….🤯😮 You will no doubt I’ll be inundated with requests of Little Simz tracks to review. I suggest you get down that rabbit hole as quickly as you can. My suggestions:- Venom (Colors Show version) 101 FM Point and Kill Woman I love you, I hate you Offence Gorilla Hearts On Fire I could go on for a long time….. Also, you were asking about UK culture and diversity. London is probably one of the most diverse cities in the world. Perhaps you could watch the series Top Boy on Netflix, which also Little Simz stars in.
Na she was talking about communities getting Knocked down, in reference to our government, the conservatives. Since they came into power over a decade ago, they've massively cut funding to the public sector to Everything. Which has meant while we've all suffered the consequences,they've got rich from it. They call it "austerity measures" 😑 But yeh Simz is a BEAST,you've already done my favourite track of hers "Venom"(That first verse/intro is GOAT material 🤷♂️👊🏻🔥🔥🔥),but keep digging into her, definitely need to react to "Boss" tho,what you said in the venom reaction about her flipping on male rappers.....👀👊🏻
Hey y'all. Love the pod! I just had a revelation. You should react to Woodkid, specifically the songs: Iron, Run Boy Run, and I Love You. I don't know if you listened to them before, but it would be epic if you hadn;t and did a first time reaction on those, especially Iron and Run Boy Run. I'm sure you would love those. Peace!
Bp first and foremost I respect the hustle bro. But you should be posting links in the descriptions to the original video/creator channel in EVERY SINGLE ONE of your reaction videos. I could list all the reasons but it's just the right thing to do.
You're too tapped in with American politics to really get her. Simz is left wing in the UK, where even the 'right' of the UK is closer to your democrat party; so most people in the UK are far more left wing than the US. Our prisons aren't so much a problem for things like prison labour etc, but we have our own issues.
Finally! Little Simz is the best rapper in the UK currently! Her Colors show 'Venom' is a must! Good work BP!
❤❤❤ yess🎉🎉🎉
Name 1 non-UK rapper who’s better than her. I’ll wait.
@@JackFate76The only rappers I can think of are the older school rappers, and even then she could hold her own with them, and with time she could surpass them.

Yup! She's amazing.
Yes, her name is Simbiata. I think Simbi is the name that she's called within her family.
Learn something new everyday 😎❤️💛💚🖤🇯🇲✊🏿
Yo crazy you reacting to lil simz now, loving the variety,
Defo a top Uk rapper out there,
Another one of her favourite songs for me is called
'Venom'
I'd recommend checking it out
Great call.
Her back catalogue is inspirational too, another independent artist with something more than just making music, it has a message.
More Little Simz please!
Gorilla, Point & Kill, Woman, Selfish & Boss are all fire 🔥
gorilla is amazing!
I think you're right that our attitude to obstacles can hinder us or inspire us. There are times though when folks are legit taken advantage of by the system, and sometimes no amount of mental reframing can change that. Enjoyed the reaction. Respect
You need to jump on some akala fire in the booth as well 😉
I'm sure he's reacted to his first fire in the booth
When he started talking about the prison systems. I instantly thought of akalas fire in the booth part 1
This women is POWERFUL 😮❤
Yes BP thank you for promoting Little Simz she is incredible
Oh I'm SO glad you're reacting to Little Simz, she's SO underated. ❤
Incredible artist, raise your daughters to be more like Little Simz, be confident themselves and be beholden to no one. Such a great catalogue of songs already. ❤❤❤
Wow, this is very epic. I’m going to have to check out more of her work.
Yeeeessss! I’m so glad you finally found Lil Simz! She’s been one of the best voices in hip hop for a while
Simz will go down in history imo, her last 3 projects are truly incredible.
When she says “knocking down communities to re-up on properties” she’s referencing the gentrification of previously poor parts of London (e.g Islington, Hackney and east London in general). People are being priced out of their own communities as they are gentrified for the “suits” (as Simz calls them)
This is stunning.

Would love for you to put people on to little simz like you have ren just to see their reaction
Great reaction, love Little Simz. Lady is a genius!

Do more Simz and thank me later. You won’t be able to get enough:
Boss
Point & Kill
Woman
Venom
Dead Body
Good For What for starters
Her real name is Simbi, the album Sometimes I Might Be Introvert is spelling out her name !
Bro I haven’t stopped listening to little Simz since she dropped NO THANK YOU and I’ve gone backwards to her discography 💪💪💪💪
It’s all amazing right? Even her prealbum work is equally strong

Sometimes I might be introvert is easily one of my favourite albums of all time
love her!! stoked to see her on your channel
Point and Kill feat Obongjayar also slaps ua-cam.com/video/tvY31eN3gtE/v-deo.html
Venom is a fire one from her as well as angel and heart of fire
Shot in South London, Natural history museum, Crystal Palace etc......
This dude is awakened from the matrix. lol🤭
SHE'S DOPE!!! Just added her to my hip hop playlist 😊
This track is a masterpiece
FUUUUCK Yeah Simz is the best
All the hands on one person means Unity.
She is a queen!! ❤❤
Akala fire in the booth part 1,2,3,4 I need to see your reaction
I first came across her in the TV show 'Top Boy'. It was only after that I discovered she did music as well.
Yea my friend! Loved writing ✍️ this with my friend! She’s playing on my birthday in September in Chicago!
little Simz is the BEST!!!! More please!!
I’ve been waiting for some Little Simz on here! Do Point and Kill!
I believe thats the Natural History museum in London....
Lil simz Is truly one of this generations greatest mc s. Mail or female, and she is above a lot of her peers this generation and really deserves more attention credit over here in the US. Her last rour planned for here got canceled dur to lack of sales i heard, and that's disheartening.
Simz ❤ Fantastic reaction bro
Big up London
do more little simz!
Oh I'm so glad you finally met this goddess. She 's fire. Ckeck out Venom, Deranged, Boss...
Dave - heart attack or in the fire. Or Dave and avelino Cassius clay
Human connection, unity, we are all one and the same at the end of the day. This is what I get visually from this. Much love 🌺
Little simz yes BP she 🔥🔥🔥🔥uk hip hop is so strong just now
Mhst record that when i received this it was 8 hrs old already frfr💯
I continue to be smitten by this excellent Woman..
Little Simz =🔥🔥🔥
Love Little Simz. Powerful song, great reaction. This song is followed up by the song Woman.
Little Simz - Venom. 🔥🔥🔥
I lived in Cali for 12 years, had fun.... , recently moved back to the UK, love the UK, maybe because I was born here. UK is cool, especially if you have time to experience it. BJJ in Cali is way bigger.... miss that big time....
Simz is 🥶
It isn't rap, it's art
There’s a wealth of Simz material to mine on her albums, I would recommend checking out her Venom freestyle next. Insanely talented girl.
On another note, P. Check out Durty Goodz. Please. So much fire 🔥
Lowkey Ahmed is a crazy song if you get chance to react to that. It hits hard though. The UK hip hop scene is very strong right now.
I like BP but I wonder if the the genius of Lowkey will be wasted on him, much as I've requested him. Dude just said, "capitalism is dope" 😂
Little Simz.......! yes Sir......! PURE MUSHY PEAS BUSINESS ........
Simz is the best.
She is incredible talent singer writer.
UK is diverse!!
Little Simz album is🔥 check out Venom 👌
On it
Top Boy.
Would love for you to watch this with Andyroo!
You should react to Little Simz - Venom 🔥
Akala fire in the booth! Get Don and react together. So many talking points, it will be an amazing reaction brother!

You explained how I feel better than I could. Couldn't give a shit about your jewellery unless it has a double meaning or a play on words😂
I'm getting stuck on the footage they used in this music video. I still remember the police in my area doing drive-bys on innocent bystanders with pepper balls and my friends getting arrested and disappearing for days.

You will no doubt I’ll be inundated with requests of Little Simz tracks to review. I suggest you get down that rabbit hole as quickly as you can. My suggestions:-
Venom (Colors Show version)
101 FM
Point and Kill
Woman
I love you, I hate you
Offence
Gorilla
Hearts On Fire
I could go on for a long time…..
Also, you were asking about UK culture and diversity. London is probably one of the most diverse cities in the world. Perhaps you could watch the series Top Boy on Netflix, which also Little Simz stars in.
Selfish - is her best track you should definitely react to that !
review the whole concept album, simbi, from beginning to end
Yo, black p. Was rome built in one day?, What I'm saying is it's all good homie, at least your diving 8nto new territory
You gotta do more Ghetts, the guy is a genius
🕺contemporary dance I would say😶
React to Little Simz - Gorillaz ! Pleeeease BP
Na she was talking about communities getting Knocked down, in reference to our government, the conservatives.

Check her new album shes 🔥
im going to guess black p never saw Top Boy.

I don't know if you listened to them before, but it would be epic if you hadn;t and did a first time reaction on those, especially Iron and Run Boy Run. I'm sure you would love those. Peace!
Little Simz is commenting on colonialism and its persistent power structures still affecting our lives today.
please do WRETCH 32 DAILY DUPPY 👌
Bp first and foremost I respect the hustle bro. But you should be posting links in the descriptions to the original video/creator channel in EVERY SINGLE ONE of your reaction videos. I could list all the reasons but it's just the right thing to do.
Bro, she's British. She is gonna be way Left of most of the US.
Mate do gorilla
Please react to chase the money freestyle juice wrld
im sorry but nothing compares to her top boy track VENOM
You're too tapped in with American politics to really get her.
Simz is left wing in the UK, where even the 'right' of the UK is closer to your democrat party; so most people in the UK are far more left wing than the US.
Our prisons aren't so much a problem for things like prison labour etc, but we have our own issues.
love little simz, but this track does not do it for me at all. check her earlier stuff! :)
You should react to Little Simz - Venom. 🔥
