How Little Simz’s ‘Sugar Girl’ uses four tracks to show four sides of her artistry
Little Simz’s four-track ‘Sugar Girl’ EP moves from a controlled warning to sparse space, alt-rock friction and a final burst of collaboration.
About This Track
'Problems' by Little Simz is a 2013 track from the album 'Blank Canvas'. The lyrics set a scene of a “wild and cold” city, with the speaker wanting solitude while insisting that their troubles are not for someone else to carry. There is a repeated insistence on the mismatch between what is felt and what can be shared, framed as something the listener should understand, even if the problem remains firmly with the speaker. The tone is confessional and guarded, caught between disclosure and refusal.
"Problems" is a track by Little Simz, from the album Blank Canvas, released 26th September 2013. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 20 articles about Little Simz.
