Sampha drops first solo track in three years ‘Timmy’s Prayer’

“I’ve had a lot to process these past couple of years.”

The season of good music continues, with Sampha returning from the wilderness with his first solo release in over three years.

After recently teaming up with Kanye West and SBTRKT amongst others, ‘Timmy’s Prayer’ is a bewitching bass-heavy serenade, finding the South Londoner in definitive croon mode. Transporting from a mournful spine-chilling plea into a glorious electro-tinged eruption, it’s a timely reminder as to why Sampha sits as one of the most in-demand producers and artists of recent times.

Talking about the delay, Sampha said: “I’ve had a lot to process these past couple of years, as we all do. And it’s hard to articulate sometimes. I wanted to say thank you to all the people who’ve shown me so much love and support. I’m looking forward to sharing my music with you again”
