The Nigerian RnB music scene is activised by a healthy competition amongst artistes. This competition has seen several of these artistes take the spotlight of RnB music in Nigeria, albeit momentarily and at different times. The most protean aspect of the RnB community is the category of female artistes. The spot of hottest RnB artist in the female category has always been switching occupants and among those that have held the spot are Tiwa Savage, Seyi Shay, Chidinma, Waje and co.

The rich crop of female RnB artistes in Nigeria has made it possible for the industry not to lack in quality RnB sound, so much so that it has become an important musical export for us. This shows just about the size of listenership Nigerian RnB music commands.

In the midst of the competition for the spot of hottest female artiste, one among the many has managed to ascend to the spot. It is safe to say, she holds the spot with beaming confidence, showing no sign of wearing off in near time. Simi is the artiste that shines brightest amongst those in candidacy.

Simi who started with gospel music, has since evolved into a fine RnB artiste. In her growing portfolio, she has powerful hits such as Jamb Question, Tiff, Love Don’t Care and her most recent hit song, Smile for me. All these in addition to numerous songs she has featured on. Her reputation as a song writer and sound technicality has also help shoot her to high spot.

Interestingly, her music is not her only charm. She is further endeared to her fans by her lively and sportive character. She seem to be only fixed side of the popular love triangle in the music industry, the other two sides being Falz and Adekunle Gold.

The dominance of the X3M Music signee was on show at the 2016 HipHop Awards, as she swept most of the awards in her category. At the event, she got the award for Best RnB single, Best Vocal Performance (female) with her song, Love Dont Care. While her duet with Falz, Soldier won Best Collaboration and Best music video.

Simi already started 2017 on high note with Smile 4 me making the rounds already. Her achievements continued with her bagging a juicy endorsement deal with Etisalat. Considering the present look of the scene, Simi is the new Queen of RnB music in Nigeria. She looks set to dominate the category for as long as she maintains her mojo, and this is forecasted to be a longtime.

Good day Nairalanders. A very depressed soul needs your advise to make an important decision. This is going to be a long post, i apologize for the stress. Bear with me.

I have been with my girlfriend for close to a year now. Everything was good at the beginning as usual with our little fights here and there. I have my own fault as i tend to flare up easily and she does has hers too. She's usually very rude and she shouts a lot even when we are having a little misunderstanding in public. We both agreed we were going to work on these flaws to make everything go smooth and i tell you I've always tried my best in that aspect.

But recently my girlfriend has been acting funny. She doesn't call frequently and she prefers to chat most times. Although this is an issue that i encountered at the early stages of our relationship because she said that's how she is so i tried my best to cope with it even though i wasn't sitting well with it. However, things have changed drastically to the extent that she doesn't even call at all or check up on me on social media.

There was a time i called her like five times(I usually call only twice and if you're not picking i chill and wait for a call back), because i wanted her to pick up but she didn't. Instead she sent me a "hi" message on whatsapp without an explanation for why she didn't pick my call.

Also, she doesn't pay attention to me when we are in a conversation. She fixes her interest on other things like her phone, the television or just staring at the ceiling like I'm a bore to her.

So all these made me to think deep and ask what may have been wrong. I wanted to conclude that she was getting tired of the relationship but I said let me ask her first maybe it was my fault. I know that sometimes I can be controlling and authoritative but it's not my fault sometimes because she does anyhow when left to do her things alone. It's like she wants me to always tell her what to do. But when i do, it's a problem.

So when I asked her she told me everything that she was not tired but I was putting pressure on her. I promised to stop pressurising her and I also asked her to change from her behaviour and become who she once was and we agreed.

Last week, on a Wednesday morning I woke up to her message on whatsapp and I replied without getting any reply till like 12 so I decided to call her. She told me that she was eating and she would call me when she was done. After an hour she hadn't called and i called again and she told me that she was sorry that she was watching a movie.

I got angry and complained to her, but instead she was rude (as she usually is) and started raising her voice. She said what had happened is in the past and she cannot do anything about it then she hung up.

I'm fed up. I don't know if there's any other guy although I've noticed some shady behaviors of hers but they aren't concrete enough. This is not the kind of relationship i want because it's obvious that we are on a different perspective. I don't bug my girl or attach myself to her, but I also feel that the right things should be done in the right measure.

It's been a week now and she hasn't called or sent a message even on Christmas Day. I want to call her now and break up, but I'm confused cos I still lover her. She has her good side which is rare in most girls.

Sorry for the long post once again. Please help with your contributions.
