Nigerian singer , Simisola Kosoko, popularly known as Simi, has reacted to criticisms trailing a recent interview she did claiming that she doesn’t listen to anybody’s music asides hers and her husband’s, Adekunle Gold.
Appearing on the ‘Zero Conditions’ podcast, she explained that she only listens to Gold’s music because they are married.
“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 s**t 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 criticise 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.”
