“D’Banj can never be replaced” – Tiwa Savage [VIDEO]

First lady of MAVIN Records, Tiwa Savage has revealed the real reason why she joined MAVIN Records. In a recent interview with Factory78, the Kelekele crooner dismissed the insinuation that she was signed on the label to replaced D’Banj. According to her, ” It’s great (to be a part of Mavin Records Team). Don Jazzy is a legend in my opinion. He is incredible and I have always looked up to him. Continuing the talented singer said she has always been closed to Jazzy even when they were in Mo’Hits, so joining him was a natural progression. “I just want to say this: his plan to sign me is not to replace D’Banj… D’Banj can NEVER be replaced. He is an icon, the entertainer. It was just that they wanted a female touch” she concluded. The first lady also talked about her style of music, stage craft amongst other things. She frowned at how Nigerian artists altered their style to fit the foreign market advising them on the need to stay true to themselves. Tiwa is currently working on releasing her long-awaited debut ‘Tiwa O ni Baje‘ slated for this year. Watch the interview:
