In her own words; “At the beginning of my career, I really had a problem with fame. I would always say I’m not designed for it. A lot of it is unreal and I’m not about that. Many people didn’t know how to reconcile me being a celebrity with me being myself”

Speaking on her recent 11 tracked studio album, ‘To Be Honest’, She said; “Making music has always been about passion for me. So, I trust my instincts and hope that people connect to what I’m sharing with them…and most of the time, they do. I wanted to create something that showed a glimpse of me that people hadn’t really seen before. I wanted to display a less edited version of myself. I wanted to share my perspective of my own story. A lot of people have shared what they think I am, how they think I am, and what they think drives me. It’s my turn now.”
The ‘Duduke’ hit-maker also revealed her intention of writing a novel soon, and that her ambition of being a novelist is still alive. Simi’s album, ‘To Be Honest’ released on Friday, June 3, 2022 has amassed impressive numbers on streaming platforms.
