Un ambizioso video-album condensato: Little Simz ritorna sulle scene a stretto giro di posta con un nuovo album che dovrebbe consacrarla come regina del rap British e impegnato e lo fa accompagnando il tutto con questo lavoro firmato da Gabriel Moses. Un cortometraggio di dieci minuti in cui, attraverso estratti di cinque canzoni diverse, Moses e “Simbi” definiscono le coordinate emotive di No Thank You.
Ne esce un quadro scurissimo attraverso l’uso di un “nero e bianco” molto espressivo, scene dal valore simbolico per lo più negative e il mesto finale in cui in un salone bene, attorniata da gente bianca e facoltosa che la applaude, la rapper si guarda allo specchio e una lacrima le riga il volto.
