Let’s take a deep dive into Tiwa Savage. Tiwa was born in Nigeria but moved to the UK with her family when she was eleven years old. Even as a little child, she was a visionary, and had a goal to become a musician and she worked towards it. This doggedness made her become a backup singer at the age of 16 for singer and songwriter, George Michael.

She received her diploma from Berklee College of Music in 2009, after which she signed a contract with ATV Music Publishing. Since then, she has worked tirelessly to advance her musical career. Tiwa Savage has been recognized on the regional, national, and even international levels for her work.

Her inventiveness has proven that she possesses the skills necessary to take the brand to a global level.
