- Simi has reacted to the criticism trailing a recent interview she did.
- The songstress had claimed she doesn’t listen to anybody’s music asides hers and her husband’s, Adekunle Gold.
- Her words were met with criticism, to which she took to the microblogging site, X, to rant.
Popular Nigerian singer cum songwriter, Simisola Kosoko, mononymously known as Simi, has turned to the X platform to vent her frustration at being misrepresented in a recent interview.
Hours ago, a video of Simi surfaced where she claimed she doesn’t listen to other artistes’ songs aside from her husband, singer Adekunle Gold.
Appearing on the ‘Zero Conditions’ podcast, she explained that she only listens to Gold’s music because they are married.
Simi said:
“I don’t listen to anybody’s music, the reason I listen to my husband’s songs is because I’m married to him.
“I like Post Malone’s first album ‘Beerbongs & Bentleys’. love J.Cole. I don’t listen to anybody’s music. Nothing changed. I just don’t know.
“I don’t really listen to anybody’s music. The reason I’m listening to my album now is because it just came out. In few weeks, I probably won’t listen to it as much as I do now.”
The now viral interview where Simi made the comments was met with backlash.
Taking to X in reaction, Simi restated that she truly doesn’t listen to music, except her husband’s. She wrote:
“I’m deading that shit immediately. I said I don’t listen to music. I don’t know songs. If I wasn’t me, I wouldn’t know my songs, and if I wasn’t with my man, I probably wouldn’t know his either because I don’t listen to anything.”
Simi continued to criticize the nature of certain interviews, and the toll it takes while asserting:
“I hate doing these stupid interviews sometimes because they don’t care about supporting you. They will either lie or post things out of context so people can pile on you. I hate wicked people.”
