Adekunle Gold Defends Wife Simi Against Samklef
In a recent social media uproar, Adekunle Gold, musician and husband to Simi, took a stand in defence of his wife amidst criticisms from Samklef regarding their past interactions.
Samklef, a record producer turned blogger, stirred controversy by publicly expressing sentiments of feeling slighted by Simi and Ric Hassani, whom he claimed he had supported early in their careers. He particularly targeted Simi, alleging that she orchestrated a situation that led to his public embarrassment on Twitter (now x).
Asserting that he would forgive Simi if she apologized, Samklef’s comments drew a stern response from Adekunle Gold. The musician firmly stated that Simi owed no apology to Samklef and redirected the focus, suggesting that Samklef should be offering apologies instead. He urged Samklef to cease his antics and comport himself in a more mature manner.
Samklef’s career spans collaborations with renowned Afrobeat artists such as Wizkid, Vector, Olamide, Simi, and Ric Hassani. However, his recent foray into controversial blogging has stirred mixed reactions within the industry and on social media platforms.
