Tiwa Savage has described her collaboration with Duncan Mighty on Lova Lova as the biggest song of her illustrious career yet.
The singer who, on Friday, August 24, headlined her first sold-out UK concert at the Indigo’s O2 Arena, is also set to release her third studio album before the end of the year.
Tiwa further touched on a number of issues concerning her music, collaborations, feminism and personal life, while responding to a flurry of questions during an
interview.
Speaking on her latest single Lova Lova with Duncan Mighty, she disclosed that the song was one of the biggest records of 2018. The song, which features the revived Duncan Mighty, became an instant hit on the streets and Tiwa talked about the process of recording the song.
She said, ”It was just one of those usual studio sessions; I worked with Ceeza and Spellz on it and instantly, I knew it was a beautiful record.
“Actually we have had this record since January, it was right after I dropped Vibe and it seemed like the next song to drop.
“Duncan Mighty and myself, we’ve spoken for a long time about working together and so he was in Lagos and I invited him out to the studio, played him a couple of records and that one in particular and he was like, I love this record, and literally in 10, 15 minutes, he wrote his verse.”
Responding to a message she shared on her Instagram page, which had the caption “she had recorded the biggest song of her career,” Tiwa admitted that’s how she felt about Lova Lova.
She said, ”Definitely, it was Lova Lova, because it just felt really special, especially when Duncan did his verse; it just felt really good.
”I have a record with Chris Martin from Coldplay. I do have a record also with Kranium. I believe it is going to be in his album, which is coming out in October.”
Earlier in June, Tiwa Savage’s name was mentioned in a conversation between On Air Personality, Misi Molu and singer Yemi Alade, which generated controversy on social media. But Tiwa said all was well between her and fellow singer, Yemi.
She said, ”There is no bad vibe actually; every time we see each other, it’s just the mutual respect that we have for each other.
“Definitely, I am here for a reason. I think I have worked hard enough. I take every criticism the right way. I definitely don’t think she [Misi] meant it a bad way.’’
Tiwa Savage, just before her concert in the UK, had stated that she and frequent collaborator, Wizkid had a number of new songs together and her next single would feature English rapper/singer, Stefflon Don.
