• Simi releases new single ‘Woman’ which challenges unfair female stereotypes and highlights the strength of women.

Ekohotblog reports that award-winning Nigerian artiste Simisola Ogunleye Kosoko popularly known as Simi has released her latest single titled Woman.

The song is about uplifting and celebrating women. The track also highlights the institutional barriers women have to go through in society.

Woman is the first single from her upcoming project set for release in the near future.

The record, an Afrobeat music, reclaims the narrative for women and turns Simi’s long-held socio-political beliefs on equality into a sonic thesis for women’s liberation.

The new song comes following the #NobodyLikeWoman campaign which Simi kicked off on the 8th of October. #NobodyLikeWoman is a storytelling challenge for women to share some of the unique and harrowing stigmas they deal with.

With over 20,000 submissions, the challenge became an outlet for women across the world who opened up about some of their sad and eye-opening experiences.

The Nigerian songstress is famed for songs that speak about various issues in society especially those that directly affect women. In 2020, at the height of lockdowns and COVID-19, Simi released the Duduke a song dedicated to women praying to be mothers. Duduke has so far garnered over 46 million views on YouTube. Simi also got to collaborate with other artists on different projects.
