Nigerian artist Simi has opened up about her decision to move away from her infamously witty and savage responses on Twitter.
In a recent episode of the Zero Conditions Podcast, Simi shared her thoughts on the changing culture of the platform and how it has affected her engagement.
Simi clarified that her intention was never to be savage, but rather to respond authentically. “I feel like I still am sometimes; maybe it’s because I’m not on Twitter as much as I used to be. I don’t see it as being ‘savage’ because my goal is not to be savage,” she explained.
Simi revealed that she is just as witty in real life as she is online, saying, “That’s how I am in real life, though; I’d say I’m very quick with it. If someone says sorry, I would say sorry for yourself; I’m a joker as well.” She emphasized that her responses are genuine and not intended to be hurtful.

Simi expressed her disappointment with the direction Twitter has taken, saying, “Twitter isn’t the way it used to be; it used to be better. I don’t think it’s because people are now awake, though. I feel like Twitter has become a competition for who can be the most toxic or the loudest person and I don’t have fun with it like I used to. Now I hardly go on it.”
“I feel like I still am sometimes; maybe it’s because I’m not on Twitter as much as I used to be. I don’t see it as being ‘savage’ because my goal is not to be savage. Sometimes people see your response and are always like, ‘You’re always clapping back,’ but compared to how much stuff you see online, I hardly ever reply honestly… That’s how I am in real life, though; I’d say I’m very quick with it.
