Nigerian singer Simi, shared a letter with her fans, talking about how the music biz can be tricky. She didn’t release as much music as she wanted this year, but she thanked her fans for sticking with her.

She said, “My year didn’t go as planned. Life is unpredictable.” Simi only dropped one song, a slow one, and had plans for more, but the music scene is weird and kind of funny, she mentioned.

Even though things didn’t go exactly as she hoped, Simi appreciates her fans for waiting patiently. She knows they support her through thick and thin. She’s not taking that for granted.

Simi also talked about the numbers on Spotify, saying they’re just symbols. She sees her fans and is grateful for them seeing her too.

Looking forward, Simi decided to delay her new song until next year. She’s excited about a fresh start and wants her fans to be ready for it.

In simple terms, Simi’s saying, “Hey, this year was a bit off, but next year, we’re starting anew. Thanks for being there!” #Simi #MusicLife #Fans #NewBeginnings

The text in full:

”My year didn’t go how I planned. I’m not mad about it; I’m just stating for the record. I’d be crazy to give life any ultimatums, because by design, life is unpredictable.

I only put out one song this year. A ballad. In the middle of the year. I had plans for multiple singles and an album. I did. But the music business is so fickle, it’s amusing. The wheels that turn behind the scenes are emotionless.

This epistle is dedicated to my fans. Despite the many long waits you have endured for my sake, you support me. Still.

”Again and again. I don’t take you for granted and I hope that’s a truth you don’t forget. I wasn’t going to post this stuff, because I didn’t see the point. But you’re the point.

This is one app. So the numbers are only a symbol and I want to say that I see you. Thank you for seeing me too.”

I pushed my stuff to next year, because I like the idea of starting afresh. So, I hope you’re ready.”
