Mary Anne is joined by London rapper Little Simz, ahead of her performance at the 6 Music Festival in Liverpool. Little Simz is 24-year-old Simbi Ajikawo and her latest album Age 101 is released on Friday the first of March via AWAL Recordings.

The album draws on neo-soul, deep funk and experimental pop, alongside her roots in hip-hop and grime. So far Simz has released 10 mixtapes and EPs and used her work to explore taking leaps of faith, learning from loss, building on gains, industry politics, a sense of self; and navigating success, disappointment, confusion and anxiety.

Last year, she featured on Gorillaz鈥� single 鈥楪arage Palace鈥� and toured with them for their Humanz Tour. She has also toured with Anderson .Paak and Lauryn Hill and received a nomination for Best Hip Hop Act and Best Female Act at the 2017 MOBO Awards
