Little Simz

During her recent visit to Cape Town, South Africa, <a href="/profile/Little-Simz" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Little Simz</a> came across students protesting a newly instated 10% hike in tuition. Reflecting on a similar plight facing students in the UK, Simz decided to shoot a music video for &#8220;Gratitude,&#8221; which features and is produced by British electronic group The Hics and appears on her debut album <a href="http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/stream-little-simzs-debut-album-a-curious-tale-of-trials-persons-news.17668.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">A Curious Tale of Trials + Persons</a>.
Directed by Jeremy Cole, &#8220;Gratitude&#8221; interpolates shots of Simz wandering the streets of Cape Town amongst scenes of the student protests, which imbue the track with a new sense of meaning. Simz X The Hics X Jeremy Cole X South African students = potency.
Simz&#8217; world tour commences in January.
