My desire to sleep with Simi was simply an ‘artistic pursuit’ – Brymo

Controversial singer, Olawale Oloforo aka Brymo, has spoken in defence of his sex-for-music request from female colleague, Simisola Kosoko a.k.a Simi.

He had sparked controversy earlier this year when he revealed that he indicated interest in being intimate with Simi when she wanted to work with him, but he insisted that he did not know she was married to singer Adekunle Gold.

His revelation didn’t sit well with Simi’s husband, singer Adekunle Gold, who warned him to “stay away” from his wife and “stop disrespecting” his family.

But Brymo stated during a recent interview with TVC News, that his sexual advances towards Simi, was just an “artistic pursuit.”

He said; “One day I was somewhere and I met Adekunle Gold, I was just like, ‘Oh! Gold.’ The first time I was ever meeting him. And he requested a collaboration… When he came to me, I just said flatly, ‘Oga, I’m not doing any collaboration right now.’

“Two weeks after, Simi came. I didn’t know they [Simi and Adekunle Gold were together]. I’m sure you all know about Falz. He took the fall that I was supposed to take. I was the target… But I’m a smart guy.

“When I saw her [Simi], I said no features except I am laying with the woman I am working with so it can really be intense. Did she not sleep with Adekunle Gold? Is that not why the music is extra good? But she said no, and I was like okay, bye-bye and then she left.

“She wasn’t the only one I proposed it to. But guess what? I’ve made music with seven women. I didn’t sleep with anyone of them.

“After that incident, I’ve recorded songs with four women. We didn’t even have that [sexual] conversation at all. We just made music. So, it wasn’t about me asking for sex for collaboration. No, no, it wasn’t about that. For me, it was an artistic pursuit.”
