Nigerian star Simi stops by our OkayAfrica studios to talk about the many highlights of her time as a musician.

Simi continues building off the success of her last records, TBH (To Be Honest) and Omo Charlie Champagne Vol. 1, in the run-up to her highly anticipated new full-length release, which is due to drop soon.

The Nigerian singer has a penchant for writing sweet and addictive Afropop melodies, which are on full display in her recent singles: “All I Want,” “Men Are Crazy” featuring Tiwa Savage and “Borrow Me Your Baby” with Falz.

In a new video interview with OkayAfrica, Simi shares some of her standout moments which include highlights like the moment she realized she made it, the moment she started her label Studio Brat, touring with Alicia Keys, and, even, a moment she fell onstage.
