Simi’s rise from a gospel artiste to a Billboard recognized alternative singer has been as a result of her consistency, hard work and creativity.
The Jamb Question crooner signed to X3M Music has shared her reason for dumping gospel music for secular music.
Simi who was a guest panelist at this year’s Nigerian Entertainment Conference noted that she wanted to do arts for arts sake and didn’t want to be restricted.
Simi said: ”I started out as a gospel artiste as a matter of fact I had a gospel album in 2008. I wanted to write love songs, I just wanted to do arts for arts sake, I wanted to sing about what I was feeling so that was how I transitioned into secular music”.
The sensational vocalist also thrilled guests to a short performance of her song ‘Joromi’.
