Diggy Simmons drops off "Honestly."

It's been a while since we've heard from 19-year-old singer/rapper Diggy Simmons, but today he returns with a track entitled "Honestly." A soul-bearing joint that's silky smooth to boot, this is one of the best we've heard from the young up-and-comer.

"Honestly" is outfitted with some seriously lush strings, a haunting vocal sample and very warm keyboards and guitar. Combine that nuanced composition with Diggy's wise-beyond-his-years lyrics, and "Honestly" sounds like the work of a much more experienced, older artist -- that's not a shot at Diggy, but rather a testament to his precocious abilities. He promises "More new music coming" in the description.

Quotable Lyrics:

Do you a favor, do me
