On short notice, Simon Dominic dropped the single ‘Me No Jay Park‘ along with a live clip. Comparing himself to Park, he says he’s resigning as CEO of AOMG.
About a month ago, Simon Dominic released the mini album ‘DARKROOM: roommates only‘. The EP showed the hardships he had gone through in the last two or so years as he was working on new music.
With this new single, the artist properly addresses his situation and what he feels about it, and seems to be making a big decision as the cover artwork already reveals: It shows Simon Dominic’s resignation.
In the first verse, Simon compares himself to Jay Park, especially from the eyes of haters who see him as a lazy guy who only makes excuses, talks a lot but never actually puts his words into action. He quotes them in the hook: “Work, Jung Ki Suck!” The pressure and his own perfectionism ended up having a negative impact on his skills, he explains.
In verse two, he confesses that his self-confidence is extremely low and needs recovering. And the best way to do that is to be himself, ‘Simon Dominic’.
At the end, Simon announces that he’ll give up his shares of the company and resign, as he’s never been a real CEO. He even tells DJ Pumkin to become CEO in his stead.
Edit: AOMG has confirmed Simon Dominic’s resignation. He will nevertheless remain with AOMG as an artist, focusing on his music.
“Only when I’m a rapper I am myself and believe in myself”
“Imma take it back again within a few days”
