Sampha's 'Satellite Business,' a subdued interlude from his 2023 album Lahai, channels a mellow vibe complemented by his introspective lyrics. However, in its evolved form 'Satellite Business 2.0,' Sampha collaborates with Little Simz to elevate the track into a more ethereal realm. Around halfway through, the tempo picks up, providing a dynamic backdrop for Little Simz to deliver a compelling final verse. The extended runtime, nearing five minutes, injects added vigor into the track, enriching its sonic tapestry.
Discussing the evolution of the song, Sampha shared,
“This song has evolved from playing it live over the last year and some change taking in the energy that the audiences have given to us on stage guiding it to this current incarnation that I’m so glad to be sharing with you all today.”
Expressing admiration for Little Simz's contribution, he added,
“Little Simz’s music has been close to my heart and ears for some time now … She’s one of my favorite artists. Her confidence and creative bravery are so refreshing. It’s amazing to see someone giving so much to their art.”
