Having stripped away the narrative cloak that shrouded the highlights of ‘Stillness In Wonderland’, she’s crafted a knockout record – and finally come true on her early promise. Our review said: “Across these 10 tracks, Simz utilises her most valuable commodity: honesty. Still something of an underrated force in rap, ‘GREY Area’ packed enough punch to win over anyone who has still not given her talents the appropriate time of day. Hailed by NME as “the best rap record of the year so far”, Simz’s astonishingly good third album could prove to be her most vital album yet – especially if it helps her music receive the wider attention it deserves. The lessons you learn with Dave are sure to live long in the memory.” Little Simz – ‘ GREY Area’ This 20-year-old has lost in some ways and won in others, and asks us to listen as he tries to find some answers. Our review said: “In exploring himself on ‘Psychodrama’, Dave has produced a masterpiece. The Londoner is renowned as a man of many, many talents, and if we had to pick just one from the album to highlight here, it’s his intricate and affecting mode of storytelling: you won’t be able to shake the memory of hearing the emotionally charged and 11-minute-long ‘Lesley’ for a long, long time. Already a surefire contender for the best album of 2019, ‘Psychodrama’ devastatingly demonstrated just how good Dave actually is as a solo artist.
