Award winning Nigerian singer, Simi has taken to Twitter to speak up about the challenges female entertainers face in the music industry.
“Some female artistes can stress you. You’ll be planning and making moves for the artiste, from nowhere, one bros will bring ‘ring’, end of career”.Simi who claimed to have been triggered by Ndidi’s post, in a lengthy Twitter thread detailed the challenges female artiste encounter in the industry. Ati executive oh. Ati audience oh. It comes from all the sides. That’s why I fuck with any woman that is winning in this industry – because hurdle is much dear. Women can hardly get away with the kinds of things many men in the same industry get away with on a regular.
For every woman that is making it, there are tons of women that have been broken. If u stand up for urself, “she’s difficult”. If u’re not a pushover, “she’s proud”. If u take time for urself, “she’s lazy.” If u ask for what you deserve, “she’s greedy”. Well, fuck you then.
