In a surprising yet deeply personal revelation, Nigerian rapper and actor Falz has opened up about his past feelings or lack thereof toward fellow artist Simi, shedding light on a decision rooted in loyalty, respect, and what he calls "bro code."
During a candid conversation with Simi, Falz stated plainly:
“I never planned to date you. I was taught never to eat from another man's plate.”
While fans have long speculated about the chemistry between the two, especially during the peak of their musical collaborations, Falz put lingering rumors to rest by revealing that there was much more happening behind the scenes than the public ever knew.
He went on to recount a time when Adekunle Gold, now Simi's husband, had expressed clear interest in her even before the fame and fortune that later followed.
“Look, Ade has always been like a brother to me. Back in the day before all the fame, during his YBNL hustle he’d casually say, ‘Senior bro, I dey eye that babe o.’ I knew he was talking about Simi. The way he said it, I could tell the feelings were real. So I respected that.”
For Falz, the decision was simple not out of a lack of admiration for Simi, but out of a deeply rooted principle: loyalty to a friend.
“It’s just bro code. You don’t go after a woman your guy already made his intentions clear about.”
This admission from Falz adds a new layer to the decades-old friendship between the three artists. Fans have often praised the synergy between Simi and Falz in songs like "Soldier" and "Chemistry", fueling years of romantic speculation. But this revelation reframes that narrative, revealing a man who chose brotherhood and respect over personal desire.
In an industry often driven by rivalry and personal ambition, Falz’s words stand out as a rare and refreshing moment of integrity. For many, it reinforces why he remains one of Nigeria’s most respected and thoughtful entertainers.
As for Simi and Adekunle Gold, who have since built a beautiful life and family together, Falz’s disclosure only adds a sense of history and respect to their journey proof that sometimes, the right people end up together, not just by fate, but also by the quiet sacrifices of those who stepped aside with honor.
