Sampa The Great shares new track 'Freedom'

With only a few weeks left before she releases her highly-anticipated debut album, Sampa The Great has now unveiled the next cut to be lifted from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Freedom' was premiered on Annie Mac's Radio 1 show last night (20th August), and follows on from the previously shared tracks 'Final Form' and 'OMG' in previewing her debut LP 'The Return', which is set to be released on the 13th September via Ninja Tune.

Speaking about her latest offering, she added, “‘Freedom’ is about one of the most important talks you will ever have as an artist in this industry. The balance of earning a living and expressing your artistry, and what you’re willing to compromise through it all. It’s a blessing being able to create and express yourself through the arts and an even greater blessing when that artistry can provide a livelihood for you, but it’s likely you’ll reach a point in your career where you’ll be given a choice to compromise your artistic expression. How much you’re willing to compromise is a conversation discussed in Freedom.”
