Little Simz Announces New EP ‘SUGAR GIRL’ Out May 8

London’s own Little Simz is stepping back into EP territory with the announcement of SUGAR GIRL, landing May 8 a move that signals a new phase following her 2025 album cycle.

While details remain tightly controlled, the drop follows a pattern familiar to Simz’s catalogue, short-form releases used as creative pivots. Projects like Drop 6 have previously acted as transitional moments less about commercial rollout, more about experimentation and recalibration.

Across a catalogue that spans multiple EPs and critically acclaimed albums, she’s built a reputation for precision timing and artistic control.

With SUGAR GIRL, the framing already feels intentional. The title suggests a shift in tone maybe potentially softer, more character driven, or concept led almost contrasting the layered, expansive sound of her recent full length work.

The announcement lands while Simz remains active on the live circuit, including major 2026 tour dates and festival appearances, reinforcing her position as one of the UK’s most consistent global exports.
