Woman- Simi
‘Woman’ was recorded in 2019 but its release was delayed because Simi was with Child. The record has now been released preceded by the #NobodyLikeWoman challenge created by Simi to bring more attention to several stereotypes about women that need to change.
“Woman is a song about uplifting women as much as it is about pointing out the institutional barriers placed on them, Simi points out society’s unequal treatment while demanding for a more equitable system.”
