Tiwa Savage graced the New York Fashion Week over the week in style, using the avenue to premiere her latest single, “49-99” at the fashion event.
Tiwa Savage was introduced to the waiting dignitaries and she expresses her music journey at the Martell Mixer Meeting. Explaining the concept behind her latest song, “49-99”, the singer said she borrowed it from the Afrobeat Legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti‘s popular expression of “49 sitting, 99 standing” – a typical situation in Lagos transport system where passengers scuffle in the popular big yellow buses called “molue”.
For Tiwa Savage, she wants the world to know where she’s coming from, to see her Nigerian story, hence the title of her song.
Tiwa Savage is signed to Universal Music Group and her presence in the global scene is something we are all proud of.
