Singer Simi didn’t do much in music this year and didn’t also get the streaming numbers she wanted, but she had her fans to thank for not giving up on her.
She told her fans in a letter posted on her Instagram page that life can be hard in the music industry, noting that she had lots of songs to sing, but she could only release one single this year.
She wrote: “My year didn’t go how I planned. I’m not mad about it; I’m just stating for the record. I’d be crazy to give life any ultimatums, because by design, life is unpredictable.
“I only put out one song this year. A ballad. In the middle of the year. I had plans for multiple singles and an album. I did. But the music business is so fickle, it’s amusing. The wheels that turn behind the scenes are emotionless.
“This epistle is dedicated to my fans. Despite the many long waits you have endured for my sake, you support me. Still.
“Again and again. I don’t take you for granted and I hope that’s a truth you don’t forget. I wasn’t going to post this stuff, because I didn’t see the point. But you’re the point.
“This is one app. So the numbers are only a symbol and I want to say that I see you. Thank you for seeing me too.
“I pushed my stuff to next year, because I like the idea of starting afresh. So, I hope you’re ready.
