Little Simz is suing her former producer Inflo – AKA Dean Cover of music collective Sault – for allegedly failing to repay a loan of £1.7m, including £1m to cover Sault’s only live show to date, an opulent extravaganza at London venue Drumsheds in December 2023 at which she performed. The London-born rapper and actor said that the debt left her unable to pay her full tax liability in January 2024.

Inflo had worked with Simz, born Simbiatu Ajikawo, since her third album, 2019’s Grey Area, as well as producing for Adele, Michael Kiwanuka, Tyler, the Creator, and Inflo’s wife, soul singer Cleo Sol.
