Furthermore, Simi, has responded to detractors who say she has a fake accent. Internet trolls who suggested that the singer of “Duduke” has an imitation American accent have mocked her.
However, the singer claimed that she doesn’t fake her accent and added that she speaks fluently in a video message that she just posted on her social media page.
Simi went on to say that she finds the insinuations funny and urged anyone who dislikes her accent to avoid her social media accounts.
She said,
“Let me tell you something that gets on my nerves; when some motherf*ckers come on here saying I’m forming ascent. Do I really seem like the kind of person that will care about how anybody feels about how I talk? like I sit down and I plan, this is how we are going to use this ascent today? I don’t give a f*ck. Do I sound like I’m struggling when I’m talking?”.
