bruh that flow is better than most popular rappers rn damn
She's dope af live too. Heard her every time she's been in Denmark!
Right???!!
bro you mean than 95% of the rappers out there rn.
there literally a few others that still can flow and not only rely on the beats.
Killer flow fo sho
Still a fan 2019
This is deep for two reasons, she's writing a song about being in the backseat in her life and yet realizes this is what she signed up for. So she's getting at how women in the rap game are always in the backseat to men, and also how women in society or subjected to patriarchy. She standing in a contradictory and difficult place where she feels subjugated everywhere she goes yet knows that she signed up for it and makes an amazing song as a testament to her life of freedom yet struggle. At least that's what I got from it.
She didn't ask to be born female, though.
Truth Songs1 ? Are you sure...
word
@@truthsongs1265 that's the name of the channel dipshit
The song is not called colors tho, if you listen to what she saying, you might have a different interpertion of it. She literally says this is what I sign up for, meaning possible being a rapper, and she happens to be female, trying to participate in a dominated male genre. Yeah most of our ancestors came from Africa the motherland, but that was decades ago, and black women didn’t birth all colours cuz that would be weird af, mutation happened, and if mutations happened then that could mean not everyone came from Africa.
This is not a female rapper. She’s a female rap artist, her metaphors and story telling is incredible 🙌🏾💯👌🏾🎧
She's a rap artist.
@@bea4406 exactly no need for extra labels. Rap artist. Rap genius if u ask me
Minus the female adjective and you’re on
She's said she doesnt like being called *female* rapper actually. We dont talk about guys like "oh he's a great *male* rapper" like.. its weird lol
Perfect
_"My daddy prolly rather me an athelete"_ is my favorite line. Her accent is the move.
stop stealing bars make up ur own .. lol
Nineskyz ??
Thank you!!! I came to the comments just to see if they lyrics would be here so I could discern that specific line.
Nineskyz she was referring to the line lol
@@NINESKYZ lmao what?
🙌🏿
all my life in a backseat...damn...
You too good for me. Hand movements on point
doing bits for the UK, mega love.
Love u❤🎧🎶
Saw you at Gorillaz's London concert and have been so into your music ever since oh my god
she conducting an orchestra with those hands
nosequiters called rapper hands
this comment got me dying
Lmao😂😂😂
🤣🤣
Read it in her accent
I'm disgusted that I didn't know about this woman sooner. No smoke and lights, no gimmick, just bars.
Its funny cuz to me this is my least favorite track of hers. Thats how good she is lol
@@mikebranch3161 I don't see how her flow is megaclean
STORMZY COLLAB WITH HER ASAP
She is one of the best rappers period in music today. One of the best female MCs ever. Lauryn Hill levels
I heard VENOM , yesterday & found this today . You can hear and see her growth within those two songs and she’s 24 . Let’s protect this Gem 💎
Definitley, so much potential.
I love listening to her rap with her British accent and it flowing so easily. It's so gooooodddd.
Yes indeed Allison!!!!
Yeah I've noticed a lot of British artists not having their accents in their music (la Ella Mai and such). Is it to make it to American streamline music?
Emily Marte honestly, a big part of the reason is that 99% of Hip-Hop that most of us grew up listening to was American rap. So it was only natural for us to imitate rap in a US accent in our younger days. It’s only the past 10 years or so us Brit’s have properly had our own people to support and listen as the talent is just so much stronger in rap, grime, Hip-hop over here than it was years ago.
@@bigzy8183 A lot of people rapped with American accents because they thought it was cooler
Dont agree that this is a British accent lol, is a complete banger though!
i love that she looks so... normal. no crazy outfits, no push up. just her talent and her natural beauty
STORMZY COLLAB WITH HER ASAP
all she needs is that raw skill
Uk vibes all day my don
Nowadays she don't tho, some manager must've decided she looked too normal and had to go all out with the get up to really sell. Came back to this song outta nostalgia..
Yea thats the beauty she’s an everyday pedestrian 🚶♀️
i will never forgive myself for just listening to her this year orz
Better late than never
She's got a flow that I've never heard of
Are you from South Africa
I honestly love this channel because all the people that you slept on, get revealed.
Briyana Tillman facts
Yeees. Exactly that.
Yes💯💯
Briyana Tillman fr!! ❤️❤️
True
She's gonna be one of the greatest of all time
too late already is
If she sticks wit that style.. going deep on lyrics.. she will be.. live she's dope
Idk about one of the greatest of all time, but she's definitely one of the toughest UK rappers I've ever heard.
i agree with you
Agreed
in 2 years went from saying thanks to colors for putting her on in youtube comments, to starring in the new season of Top Boy produced by Drake. big hustle
True,i thought I was the only one who recognized her from the show Top boy
@@leilaanderson8948 I had it the other way round
Jesus. That flow is so damn hard. Absolute queen.
I wish Jcole would see this and make a song with her!!!
@INVISIBLE PAPER GANG Cole came up off of mix tape after mix tape, he came up off of hard work what you doing bro?
Sign her to Dreamville
Gofaone Motlogelwa little simz and JID would be pure filth
She's leagues better than Cole
Yesss 😭😩
It's always fun seeing different artists rap hands.
She is UNDENIABLY a remarkable, as well as inspirational young woman / musician👏🏾! Her music tells a story and she doesn't try to follow or conform to society's standards💯!! She is a genuine and humble female artist that does not feel the need to show her skin or be eccentric to be noticed... Just her raw talent and Royal Energy🙏🏾.
Little Simz dun took off HAM ON THIS RIGHT HERE! a u t h e n t I c v i e w s dun took his career off 2 the next level fr fr no cap
Simz still ain't getting enough recognition dumb hard one of the UK's finest
Foreal thoo
100%
uk people so much like to hate on thier own they wont give her credit .the best female mc that ever came out from the uk but they wont support her i just dont understand man they do that year in year out just look at the other comments on all uk artist bare hate ..thats why we couldnt compete we the us ...
ade doyin I myself am a hiphop artist from the uk and I wouldn't say that it's a hate, it's just that people still aren't considering the artists from here on the same levels as the artist across the water in the US. and it's also because there hasn't been enough exposure in past times but thanks to social media etc, the time for "us" is coming.
I guess so you're right. uk female artist are way better than the US female artist in my humbled opinion . i think the time is here and now .....All the female artist just have to do more collabo together something like a massive movement ..i see lots of uk get hiphop and grime confused and i wonder why. i never like grime for the life of me except kano and lady lessure pardon my spelling ....
Don't get it confused because I'm humble and I'm quiet. Exactly!
That part spoke to me omg 😥
still listening to this its so timeless
STORMZY COLLAB WITH HER ASAP
Blær Olivia Nelson IMAGINE

Just listened to her album and came back for this gem 🔥
Discovering her was one of the best things that ever happened to me. What an artist
I got to listen to her more often.
CHRISTI XX yes you do. Kendrick didn't give her those props years ago for no reason. :) not just great hip hop, great music in general
Nicholas Ward I’m up to date on her now. I’m a big music nerd, and this channel is helpful in discovering more talent.
CHRISTI XX nice profile picture 😉
fauteuillouisxv I love that song.

Carlukio mdr comme miami

By Brockhampton?
Carlukio Agreed Fam
Carlukio truuuu
she absolutely mesmerized me.
In all aspects this is beautiful and so is she.
This songs hit me in my soul every time I hear it....lord I want to cry half the time listening to it. Thank you for this.
Was asking myself just the other day when Lil Simz would be on Colors. Best Female Rapper!!!!
Thabang Magoro that's arguable although she's most def up there
Thabang Magoro second to Noname
Thabang Magoro mmm did we forget rapsody??
The best is subjective, but she's high on that list.
oh please stop with this female rapper thing, she is high on the top list of rappers!
Let's just be honest she's way better than the top 5 female Rappers right now.
Yes!
True that
😅
Sad truth
Facts
Her flow is in a much higher level, bloody brilliant!!
I was this old when i discovered this and got hooked
Best new generation female rapper.
ranks up high for sure...together with rapsody, ill camille, noname..
Staalstraal Agreed
nah one of but not the best
True
she is not new
How come the artists' voices on this show are so perfect and even sound better than in the studio version? Dean, IAMDDB, and Little Simz's performances are just incredibly perfect.
+Aziz Mouaffak Saaaammmmeee I've been screaming that since I discovered this channel
Post editing bruv. Colors has some tough engineers in their corner
maybe the equipment
The way she keep droping dont stop but never failed the times. Perfect, powerfull woman.
Hands down best female rapper still 3 years later
#FactsOnly !!!!!
Damn, this is dope af. Usually the UK accent turns me off of rap, but this had me hooked from the vocals at the start
I like the accent, it's different from the rap you usually hear.
Same
LonelyWhale LOL did you just imply that US Hip Hop is mumble rap? The UK has a lot of their own mumble rappers.
CHRISTI XX nnaaaaahhhhh fam
Jag Takhar Yes.
she got skills for sure
I love her voice and rap!! Wow..... She is sooooo amazing!!
I keep coming back to this. She something special fr
Her flow is straight 🔥🔥
I adore her poetry.
listening to this and Venom every day :p, can't get enough of this lady's talent
I always receive the right music and words when I need them the most. I'm just so thankful.
I would love to hear a Little Simz feat Goldlink song :3 I think they have some common in style. Boii this song is SOOO LIT! :D
Raiden 49 That would be LIT 😭🔥
Yooooo that would be sick
Bro you mixing up something mighty fine
I just had the thought about their similar styles and your upgraded version with a collab is so much better!
Do you know what, Goldlink came to London and Simz openned his performance for him and the energy on stage was electric, Andre 3000 came to watch Goldlink and left when Simz finished shutting shit down but if you guys like Simz then you should listen to the rest of the 'Space Age' (her group) members; Josh Arce, Chuckz 20 and Tilla Arce
Little Simz UK's finest. Crazy flow. Would be a dream to work with her.
man... here in holland rap has been destroyed with non sense.. happy that the uk still has people with true skills..
aaand this isnt my account. whoops.
Im from Paris, Ive lived in London Brixton during 2 years, and now this type of hip hop is part of my identity… much love 🙏❤️
I actually love her so much she’s so unique and talented 😮
Finally there are so many good female rappers, it's a blessing.
She's honestly one of my favorite female hip hop artists, she has gotten me through some tough times 💙
Simbi💙
unbelievable the magic of this sound
She is dope bruh like woah the story telling, her flow and delivery 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥
I love Lil Sims.. so real, so touching,great beats, great wordsmith..what can I say She beautiful too.. look forward to more😎
still gives me chills no doubt
this girl is pure talent
Oh shit colors outdone themselves this time besides Dean, IAMDDB and Biig Piig
Those all my favorites too girl.
don't be sleeping on Banks' mercy
jaya sorry what about ray blk then
that nigga DEAN THO

CANT STOP LISTENING TO THAT SICK TUNE / GREETINGS FROM PARIS
Forever a bop!
Breathtaking. Flow, lyrics, content, vibe, cadence...the whole package. And she’s stunning.
omg she is amazing and I found her randomly on Spotify.
There's something very humble about this artist, so talented and pleasant to the ears
She's so fire.
I love this. Her flow her voice 🤍🤍
Thank you for your music, you've been helping me get through some real heavy shit. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you.
what a model
This is what you signed up for.
Did you forget?
This is what you get.
This is what you get.
" This is what you signed up for .. did you forget? "
Never get tired of her energy !!
She makes it seem so easy. It is a different kind of swag for sure. Get it gurl! Always a fan!
So glad that I found "COLORS" best thing that has ever happened to me 🙏🏾
Same :D
Just seen this, being from a more 'old school' hip hop heritage. I must say that was absolutely brilliant. Really, really looking forward to seeing you at all points east in the summer.
I’m so glad I got to know her with this video 4 years ago. And now seeing her releasing an album like SIMBI is just awesome. GOAT
flow and lyrics are so good and so real
Pure 10/10 track honestly
Everything about her seems so powerful, i love that
I admire the people who can move to the music and hit every beat with their body movements .. ❣
Finally! Flow so smooth
How can someone dislike this !?!? Amazing ❤️ this is the best version of this song that will ever exist . It can’t get better.
Shes absolutely stunning and talented!!
Simz is my fav female rapper. Absolute legend. Mad props to Little Simz for ever and always having bars for days. This is one of my favorite Little Simz tunes
Thank you Colors for putting me on. She's a true creative
This Girl is Jammin

Little Simz, você não imagina a força com que essa canção arrebata minha alma. Obrigado por me entregar algo tão forte e singelo! Abraços do Brasil.
