The concert comes after the release of her sixth studio album, 'Lotus'.
Little Simz is gearing up for a major London performance and has announced a headline date at The O2 on Friday, 17 October 2025. For one night only, the British rapper will be joined by special guest Greentea Peng, setting the stage for an atmospheric evening that blends introspective lyricism with big-room energy. The show arrives in support of her latest album 'Lotus'.
A singular force in UK music, Simz has long been celebrated for her sharp storytelling and fearless experimentation. Her trophy cabinet spans a Mercury Prize for 'Sometimes I Might Be Introvert', BRIT recognition, and an Ivor Novello award, cementing her status as one of the most innovative artists of her generation. Festival pedigree is assured too, thanks to a widely praised Glastonbury set in 2024 and the surprise drop 'NO THANK YOU.'
Released on 6 June this year, 'Lotus' captures an artist in transition. Across its tracklist, Little Simz reflects on maturity, restoration, and the complexities of growth, while expanding her sound to incorporate hip-hop, jazz, punk, and funk. The record features a roll-call of collaborators that includes Obongjayar, Moonchild Sanelly, Moses Sumney, Miraa May and Michael Kiwanuka.
Known for blooming in muddy waters, the lotus flower becomes a metaphor for resilience and renewal throughout the project. Simz channels that symbolism into songs that examine identity, pressure and perseverance, building on the personal narratives that defined earlier releases.
Little Simz's career reaches beyond just music, with a starring role in the Drake-produced Netflix series' Top Boy' and the curation of the musical lineup for London's 2025 Meltdown festival at the Southbank Centre.
Tickets to see Little Simz live at The O2 are now on sale.
