Little Simz - Lotus (2025)


Little Simz's sixth studio album, Lotus, is a profound exploration of personal growth and resilience. Drawing inspiration from the lotus flower's symbolism of blooming through adversity, the album delves into themes of betrayal, healing, and self-discovery. The production, led by Miles Clinton James, blends elements of jazz, soul, and experimental hip hop, creating a rich sonic tapestry. Tracks like "Flood" and "Blue" showcase Simz's lyrical prowess and emotional depth, while collaborations with artists like Sampha and Moses Sumney add layers of texture and nuance. Critics have lauded Lotus for its introspective narrative and genre-defying sound, solidifying Simz's position as a leading voice in contemporary music.
