Nigerian singer-songwriter and actress, Simi, recently shared a message on social media announcing the story behind her upcoming studio album, Lost And Found, which is set for release on July 5, 2024.

Simi discussed the personal trials and discoveries that influenced her new project. “For most of my life, I have enjoyed the privilege of knowing myself deeply, unwaveringly, truly.

Simi explained that creating the album was a journey of rediscovering parts of herself she feared were gone forever.
Moreover, Simi explained that Lost And Found represents an ongoing journey of self-discovery. Simi’s message to her fans encourages them to join her as she reconnects with her passion for music, melody, and love stories.
Simi assures her fans, known as the ‘Simi Army,’ that this album is crafted with utmost sincerity and uniqueness. “When I sing, I do it first for me, then for you… nobody can bring you what I can. What I have. What I will. Glory to God,” she expressed.
