Ask afrobeats superstar Davido to name the Nigerian female act who mostly influenced the contemporary successes for Nigerian female artistes, he will tell you ‘Tiwa Savage’.
Although the relationship between them got stained not long ago, he has professed that Tiwa is the one ‘who changed the game’ for the females.
This thus suggests that Davido strategically places her above the likes of Asa, Yemi Alade, Omawumi, Simi and Teni in this regard.
He sang Tiwa’s praise in an interview on The Breakfast Club, calling her his sister for life.
Davido emphasised their close bond, likening their disagreements to typical sibling squabbles.
He reassured fans that he still cares deeply for Tiwa and her child, considering them family.
The tension between them began when Tiwa posted a photo with Sophia Momodu, Davido’s children’s mother, leading to an alleged exchange of messages from Davido’s management.
This resulted in both artists unfollowing each other on Instagram.
The dispute has sparked widespread discussions about relationships within the music industry, with fans expressing divided opinions on the matter.
Other celebrities, including Tiwa’s ex-husband Teebillz, have also reacted, with Teebillz threatening to teach Davido a lesson for allegedly disrespecting his family.
