***ALBUM-OF-THE-YEAR***
Age 101/AWAL | Buy via Official Store

According to Patrick Corcoran: “The duo of Little Simz and Inflo (with select other helpers) hit the jackpot here (again) with Simz’s fourth album Sometimes I Might Be Introvert, as it astounds in its musical palette and lyrical dexterity. . . . But a musical backdrop of such breath-taking dynamism would be squandered without a lyricist and performer the equal of it. That is clearly not an issue here, as Simz bristles with hubris one second and humbles herself the next, searching for the line that divides the person from the artist and the sense of self the balance between the two brings. . . . The fact that Simz is able to convince across the vast array of musical styles contained on the album is testament to her charisma, undeniable lyrical skills and the strength of the bond between her and Inflo. They make a dynamic, glittering combination resolutely unbothered by chasing trends and together, they create a unique stew of Black music that feeds the soul as it moves the hips.” [Read the Full Review]
