Rema: “When I was signed to a Mavins record label, they didn’t want me to open a business. They didn’t want me to build a house, everything I wanted to get, they were checking it. They didn’t even want to see me with a girlfriend.”

You might feel Rema said all this, but that’s not true. We just want to use this opportunity to sensitize the fans and upcoming artists about some types of record deals our artists sign.

When you sign a record deal, the record label gives you a huge amount of money. It’s just like an investment loan from a bank. Before you take the money, they have to know what you will be doing with the money.

Don’t think Mavins will give you 1 billion Naira and you go and buy a house or open a business. NO… They give you money and tell you the kind of things you have to do with it.

The record labels don’t want you to open a in because they feel it’s going to take your attention from your music and you will start slowing down on producing more songs.

They can tell you that you aren’t allowed to have a girlfriend because she’s going to distract you from your career and before you know it, you stop thinking about music and focus on posting your boyfriend back to back like Libianca and her Ghanaian boy.

They don’t want you to use your money for anything like real estate because they gave you that money with conditions.

They want you to live an expensive lifestyle even if you are broke because that helps in your branding, which makes you look professional. If you want to buy a car of 300 million, they will encourage you because they know every blogger will post it and you will be trending.

Most artists sign their deals young so they don’t read the conditions well. When they try to buy some things and the record label refuses while showing them the terms of their contract, they will be surprised.

But that is how the industry works. When you are signed to a label, you follow instructions because a record deal is like an investment loan from a bank

R@pe Allegation: Popular Nigerian Singer, Simi Reacts To Accusation Of Being Pedophile

Published

on

Nigerian singer and songwriter, Simisola Kosoko, popularly known as Simi, has responded to backlash over old social media posts that resurfaced after she spoke against rape.

The controversy followed renewed online debates triggered by the Mirabel TikToker case.

Simi had stated that men should stop raping women and that rapists should be castrated.

She added that almost every woman she knows has been sexually assaulted.

Days later, screenshots of tweets she made between 2012 and 2013 began circulating online.

Addressing the issue on Sunday, she wrote, “I haven’t been on twitter today – but someone brought a few of my old tweets to my attention and I can’t not address it.”

Simi explained that the posts were made in 2012 while she lived with her mother and helped at her daycare centre.

“In 2012, I lived and helped out at my mom’s daycare while I was hustling my music.

“I tweeted everything that happened in my life, as we all did at the time,” she stated.

She said the tweets reflected casual observations about children at the daycare.

“Kids can be mischievous. If a child did something I found funny, I tweeted about it. Kids are cute and lovable.

“I want to hug, kiss and cuddle them. I tweet about it. Nothing I tweeted was from perversion,” she wrote.

Among the posts widely shared was a November 12, 2013 tweet that read, “I wonder if anyone’s ever used breast milk to bake cake before.”

Other resurfaced tweets included, “David has a crush on me. He kips comn close; actin lik he wana lock lips n den he puts his head on my lap. Shd I giv him a chance? P.S: Hes 4.”

Another read, “love to kiss d kids at my mum’s daycare – they’re super adorable and I’m crazy abt ’em.”

A further post stated, “Why this 4yr old boy tryna put hand inside ma shet????? Ogbeni wash it oh!”

Simi insisted the remarks were never intended to suggest anything inappropriate.

“What I can’t let anyone do is twist my story to fit false narratives,” she said.

She disclosed that some of the posts had been deleted due to the sensitivity of the matter.

“My team has been deleting some of my tweets because of how sensitive it is for my family. To be honest, I did not want to,” she added.

Reaffirming her position, she said, “I’ve never been depraved in my life.”

On sexual violence, she maintained, “I have always spoken against rape and sexual assault, even before you knew I existed. It’s not a costume I’m wearing, it’s who I am.

“I’ve never claimed to be perfect. I’ve never claimed to know everything. I said stop raping women. I stand by it.”

The development continues to generate debate on social media, with differing interpretations of the old posts.
