Nigeria singer and songwriter, Simisola Bolatito Kosoko, better known by her stage name, Simi, has disclosed that she does not listen to songs.
Simi, who just launched “Lost and Found ” album on July 9, said had she not been the one who sang her songs, she would not have been able to sing her own songs because she would not be listening to them.
Simi added that she could listen and sing the songs of her husband, Adekunle Almoruf Kosok, known by his stage name, Adekunle Gold, because he is her husband.
She said aside from her songs and her husband’s songs she doesn’t know songs because she does not listen to songs.
The “Duduke” crooner wrote this on her X handle on Tuesday in response to fans who reacted to an interview she granted to Zero Condition Podcast.
The “Joromi” crooner said, “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 cos I don’t listen to anything. 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”
She added, “I don’t listen to anything. I find a voice I like. Binge their project for a month and move on. I don’t listen to songs or know any artists that are not in my face. It’s not a flex. It’s just my truth. I try and I’m terrible at it.”
