Studio albums Ogaju – 2008 Simisola – 2017 Omo Charlie Champagne, Vol. 1 – 2019 Quotes of Simi. “We’re distracted so easily. You go wherever the wind blows. We know we have problems but we get carried away by the things that will add zero value to our lives. Who will value you if you refuse to persistently fight for it.” “African culture, black people culture is so beautifulllll. We have the most fun, share the magic with the sun, make amazing music (all these incredible genres), have the biggest laughs, have weird parents that love us – we’re not perfect at all, but we’re so…” “You’re not paying attention to the details in your life cos you’re being obsessed with social media. And it’s really not even worth it cos twitter’s not the same anymore. Everything’s different. So put ya phone down and mind the business that actually pays you.” “Life is short. Enjoy your life. Don’t spend half of it worrying about what you don’t have, so you won’t have to spend the other half regretting not enjoying what you have.” “So the problem is not just with the teachers, it’s sometimes the misplacement of priorities. The inadequacy of the educational system to cater to the diversity of the human mind.” “We’re the problem, we’re also the solution. We have highly underestimated the power and impact of a good image and it’s catching up to us. Plus, the change is not just the government, it’s all of us. We’re getting left behind.” “I know men go through sexual assault too! I acknowledge it, but women and children are more vulnerable. Let’s fight for and protect the most vulnerable in society.” CLICK BELOW FOR PHOTOS https://defensenewsng.com/simisola-simi-biography-net-worth-age-background-early-career-awards-and-recognitions/ |
