Following a cryptic teaser back in March, Nigerian songstresses Simi and Tiwa Savage have joined forces to deliver the pop ballad “Men Are Crazy.” The single, along with its accompanying music video, dropped on April 5, marking a significant moment in female collaborative history.
Female collaborations in the Nigerian music scene are a rarity, and this joint effort by two of the country’s top hitmakers sends a positive message to other female artists.
“Men Are Crazy” is a pop ballad that discusses the difficulties of romantic relationships with men. The lyrics acknowledge that while men may “stain your white,” they also add flavor to life. The single encourages women to embrace men, despite their flaws.
The vibrant music video showcases the sonorous vocals of Simi, Tiwa Savage’s powerful verse, and a colorful array of backup dancers.
“Men Are Crazy” is the second single released from Simi’s yet-to-be-titled fifth album.
