Nigerian singer Simi, known for her melodious tunes, has addressed recent criticisms from Samklef and Brymo.
In an interview with Angela Yee on ‘Way Up,’ she expressed bewilderment at their comments, calling them more comedic than impactful.
Simi shared that she was unfazed, thanks to her husband Adekunle Gold’s unwavering support.
“I don’t expect to be asked this. The thing is, I don’t even know what most of these people are like. I don’t know why they keep talking about me, but when you really look at what they are saying, you can’t even pick out anything. I am confused and feel like it doesn’t matter to me.
“My husband (Adekunle Gold) is speaking out for me as he would. I even told my friend that I didn’t feel anything about it because it didn’t impact me, and I didn’t have anything to hide.
“Like if you are going to post that you asked me out. So? And? Okay. And why? To me, the whole thing is more comedy than anything else.
“The only thing I will say though is that I saw a lot of people coming to my defence that why would he be talking to me like that. So, I’m just like, you don’t respect me because I’m married, but respect me because I deserve to be. Don’t do that to me,” she added.
The exchange began with Samklef’s public sentiments about Simi, leading to a heated online exchange with Adekunle Gold defending his wife.
“Simi does not owe you shit, and it is about time you stopped calling her name every 3 market days. If anything, you owe me! Stop fooling around and act your age!,” Adekunle Gold stated.
Samklef retaliated with a comment suggesting his influence on Simi’s career, stating, “Dear Adekunle, I made your wife Simi cry.”
Similarly, Brymo’s past remarks regarding Simi sparked further confrontation, met with a strong response from Adekunle Gold. Simi’s takeaway? It’s all just a humorous twist in the grand scheme of things.
