Unlike what many fans of her music have concluded for obvious reasons, female music star, Simisola Ogunleye aka Simi has said she is not dating Folarin Falana, aka Falzthebahdguy.
The Jamb question crooner however said she was in a relationship with a matured guy who understands how the music industry can be.
Simi made the confession in an interview with Punch.
“I am in a relationship with someone else who is not Falzthebahdguy; we are just friends,” she said during the interview.
“My man is mature and understands the fact that I may be erroneously romantically linked with an artiste simply because we work on music projects together. ”
Asked why she recorded an entire album with Falz, Simi said it was because they were good friends.
“We are very good friends and having worked on several projects together, we toyed with the idea of recording a joint album,” she said.
Though Simi said she didn’t leave gospel music for monetary reason, she indicated that she is not likely to ever play gospel music again.
“The first thing that comes to the mind is that I did it for monetary reason,” she said about the reason she left gospel music after releasing a gospel album in 2008.
“However music became about ‘more’; I wanted to have a broader purview. It was a tough decision for me to make at first. I wanted to explore music more. My faith in God hasn’t waivered because before I went mainstream, I prayed to God to bless my career if it was his plan for me. I also don’t see myself doing gospel music again.”
