Nigerian Singer Simisola Kosoko, also known as Simi, has said that female musicians’ relationships are not always friendly since they are frequently used against one another.
The “Men Are Crazy” singer said in a recent interview that their friendship was strained by fans who set female musicians against one another.
“Fans pit women against each other in the music industry,” Simi stated. Sometimes, it’s really intense. Because there aren’t as many of us in the [music] profession as there are boys, it can be incredibly distracting at times.
Fans simply pit a newly discovered female artist against us by drawing similarities between them.
“Everyone can prosper. I have frequently discussed women, even in my songs. However, because I’m a musician, some people believe that the only way I can legitimately talk about women is if I include women in my songs. The fact that there are women from a variety of backgrounds makes it all quite strange.
They frequently set us against one another, and I believe that occasionally this puts strain on the kind of relationship we would otherwise have.
