Nigerian singer Simi has explained why her collaboration “Where You Dey” featuring Chike took longer than expected to arrive, citing a combination of health challenges and her recent pregnancy.
She noted that the creative side was not the problem; rather, the physical toll meant she needed to prioritize recovery and preparation for motherhood before resuming full studio activity.
Fans and fellow celebrities have responded with support, highlighting the hidden pressures and expectations placed on female artists balancing public careers with personal health and family realities.
Echotitbits Take: The disclosure adds context that can deepen listener connection and drive renewed interest in the record. Expect a measurable streaming bump as audiences revisit the song with the backstory in mind.
