How I became vulnerable after birthing my daughter – Simi

Nigerian songwriter cum singer, Simisola Kosoko, simply known as Simi, has revealed the greatest source of her vulnerability.

According to her tweet on Sunday, her 6-months-old daughter, Adejare, has made her vulnerable.

The first time mum wrote “Having a daughter has made so vulnerable. I want her to never be hurt, sad, insecure, in pain, confused or afraid.

“The fact I won’t always be able to control these things has made me the most vulnerable I’ve ever been in my life.

She added “I have to be the best example for her. So help me God”.

Simi was born on 19 April 1988 in Ojuelegba, a suburb of Surulere, Lagos State, as the last of four children. In an interview with Juliet Ebirim of Vanguard newspaper, Simi revealed that her parents separated when she was 9 years old. She also revealed that she grew up as a tomboy.

In January 2014, Simi released the 5 track EP Restless, which eventually earned her a record deal with X3M Music.

In March 2019, Simi disclosed that she would be releasing her third studio album Omo Charlie Champagne, Vol. 1 to coincide with her birthday on April 19, 2019. She disclosed this information in a series of social media messages.

In May 2019, X3M Music announced Simi’s departure following the expiration of her recording contract. Both parties did not renew the contract and agreed to part ways. In June 2019, Simi announced the launch of her independent record label, Studio Brat.
