FADER PREMIERE
North London's Little Simz (b. 1994) hit up LA recently (must've been nice) and, in the process, recorded this video for "Mandarin Oranges Part 2," the first track off her forthcoming debut EP. Directed by Duy Nguyen, it's got a vibe like watching slides in grandma's basement, and the track's first half has a sort of in-the-basement feel too, albeit stonier, before unexpectedly transitioning into a fierce club track. That rad switch comes, partly at least, from Sango, the track's Michigan-via-Malawi producer whose North LP was a gem of last summer. Pretty excellent start to your week; pretty excellent start to an EP.
