Little more than 15 months after Sometimes I Might Be Introvert, Little Simz is back with No Thank You. It's been an eventful year for the British artist. Her 2021 LP garnered critical acclaim, including the Mercury Award. She attracted additional attention for the cancellation, and the , of her US tour. Then on December 12, somewhat surprisingly, she dropped No Thank You, only ten tracks but with no shortage of views on numerous topics, most notably the music industry, her thoughts on what that ideally should entail, and her experience within.

Simz' flow and rhyme schemes largely pick up where they left off, and as with Sometimes, the lyrics demand attention. The unabashed confidence in the message and delivery eludes the braggadocio that so often accompanies music of the ilk. The R&B/soul orchestral flavor of the beats and backing tracks bubble with a distilled crispiness. 

Simz chose No Thank You as the title for reasons that become increasing in number as the album unfolds. On behalf of her fans, the response is equally clear: No, thank you.
