Almost four months ago, British rapper Little Simz put out her fifth studio album No Thank You, garnering acclaim and praise from hip-hop fans all over the globe. Near the top of that list, the U.S. Little Simz fanbase adored the album, as it landed at No. 14 on Rolling Stone‘s “Top 25 Hip-Hop Albums of 2022” list.
Now, Simz is ready to give back to her supporters. On Monday (April 10), the London native unveiled her upcoming North American Tour on Instagram. “It’s been a long time,” she wrote in the post’s caption. “Appreciate your love and patience, excited to announce my NO THANK YOU North American tour!”

Beginning in Chicago, Illinois, on Sept. 20, the tour will consist of 10 shows. Along with U.S. cities like New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Seattle, Simz will also visit Canadian towns like Montreal and Vancouver. Tickets for each show go on sale to the public on Thursday (April 13) at 10 a.m. local time. Each date will also have its own pre-sale times starting Wednesday.
This announcement comes just two days before Simz will take the stage in Los Angeles for a “very special show” at The Roxy Theater. It’s unclear why she chose to do a one-night-only event in LA, but surely her listeners will be out in full force.
It’s currently unknown if Little Simz will be accompanied by any openers or supporting acts on tour, but depending on how expansive her setlist will be, she may not even need any. Practically only containing writing and production help from fellow British acts Inflo and Cleo Sol, No Thank You is a masterful exhibition of soft-spoken, yet hard-hitting lyricism and flow patterns that perfectly coincide with each song’s production. With that being said, it’s only right that a full-length project this impressive be rewarded with a handful of live performances, at the very least.
