X3M Record’s first lady, Simi, has dropped another single, Outta My Head, featuring label mate, Praiz.
Outta My Head begins with piano strings and a mid-tempo beat, accompanied by Simi’s now familiar vocal style. It is a playful yet serious meditation on infatuation and the downsides of a love gone sour. The song narrates the feeling of being hung up on a lover who has caused some pain in the past
Produced by Oscar Heman-Ackah, Outta My Head sees Praiz bringing his smooth baritone to bear. Outta My Head is Simi’s second single of the year. Within the past year, she has serenaded her fans with songs like Jamb Question, Open and Close and most recently, Love Don’t Care.
The release of the track is accompanied by a promotional music video directed by Josh Clarke and shot in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Born Simisola Bolatito Ogunleye, the 28-year-old songbird is a Mass Communications graduate of Covenant University, Ota, Ogun State. Simi, who doubles as a sound engineer, started performing in her early teens as a member of the teenage church choir. Her debut album, Ogaju, produced by Samklef was released in 2008 and an EP, Restless, followed in 2014.
Simi won the Best Promising Act at the 2015 Nigeria Entertainment Award and is named on YNaija.com’s New Establishment List for 2016.
