“I Became A Musician Because I Was Crushing On A Guy” – Tiwa Savage Reveals [Video]

Nigerian songstress, Tiwa Savage has shared insights into her journey to becoming a singer, shedding light on her initial aspirations.

She said: “I’ve always wanted to do acting. Acting was one of my first love before music. I got into music because I had a crush on a guy and he was always around the musician so I said ‘yeah, forget acting and just go into music.”
