AGE 101: DROP X

A murky, nocturnal collection of skeletal beats and raw, stream-of-consciousness flows recorded in the shadows of her breakthrough era.

It sounds like Simz rapping her deepest secrets over dusty, late-night beats in a foggy London bedroom.

A claustrophobic, late-night self-reckoning wrapped in murky, subterranean electronic beats.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The way the beat on Sea Level seems to submerge entirely under water, leaving her vocals floating in a cavernous, wet reverb.

The sudden, jarring transition into the raw, unpolished vocal delivery on Savage (Freestyle) which strips away all production safety nets.

The haunting, cyclical synth loop on Stained Subconsciousness that slowly degrades in fidelity as the track reaches its claustrophobic climax.
