“Only Those Passionate About Music Business Should Sign Artists” – Simi says
Nigerian singer Simisola Kosoko, better known as Simi, has opened up about the growing trend of well-known artists launching record labels to sign up-and-coming talents. In a chat with VJ Adams, Simi said she’s open to mentoring younger musicians, but she doesn’t fully support the idea of artists signing others just to tick a box or boost their own image.
For her, being signed is more than just business—it’s a personal dream that deserves full commitment. She pointed out that running a label shouldn’t be treated like a side project. “Some artists just sign others for the sake of it, not necessarily because they’re ready to put in the work. That’s someone’s whole life and dream you’re dealing with,” she said.
According to Simi, the job of signing and grooming talent should be left to people who are deeply passionate about the music business and ready to stay the course—whether or not the artist becomes a star right away. “If the first hit doesn’t happen, will you still push them? That’s the real test,” she added.
While she admits she could sign someone in the future, she’s also honest about the energy and commitment it requires. “You have to be willing to walk that journey with them—and I’m not sure I have that fire in me right now,” she shared.

Nigerian social media activist VeryDarkMan revealed that he was the one who called for the arrest of activist Harrison Gwamnishu, who is currently in custody in Benin, Edo State.
“He was arrested yesterday night. In all honesty, I initiated the call that led to his arrest. I did. And first of all, I’m really disappointed in everything, but I would wait for him to come out, and this time, I would want him to use his mouth to say the truth about what happened in Auchi.”
VeryDarkMan revealed that he made the call because the activist was lying instead of revealing the truth.
Media personality Dorcas Shola Fapson, also known as DSF, gives advice to Nigerians regarding relocating abroad.
During a recent podcast episode, the lady advised Nigerians that if they are living comfortably and earning well in Nigeria, then there is no need to relocate out.
She said: “People think you’re abroad and you’re making pounds. They could be abroad doing a cleaner job, making however much per hour. You probably have better opportunities here in Nigeria.”
She spoke on the misconception of relocating out and how most of it is not real or no one emphasizes on the hard part.
