Nigerian singer Simisola Kosoko, known as Simi, recently shared her experiences with imposter syndrome.
Simi, who is a mother of one, revealed that she had always felt a deep sense of self-awareness, but in recent years, she struggled with losing that connection to herself. She described feeling like a stranger in her own skin.
Creating her upcoming album, ‘Lost And Found,’ was a pivotal part of her journey to rediscover herself.

On her X handle on Tuesday, Simi wrote, “For most of my life, I have enjoyed the privilege of knowing myself deeply, unwaveringly, truly. In more recent years, I have also endured the discomfort of losing myself. Sometimes, to make room for something else that I needed to be – other times, because I could not, for the life of me, find my way. I felt like a stranger to myself. This version of me has been the hardest one to look at in the mirror.
“Making this album is a symbol of finding parts of myself again that I hoped I hadn’t lost permanently. I don’t believe that we ever stop finding ourselves. If you’re willing to look, there’s always more. This is a tribute to the things we continue to find and rediscover.”
She also mentioned that the album represents her reconnecting with her passion for music, melody, and love stories.
