EXCLUSIVE: Why Tiwa Savage Is Mad At TW Magazine

Tiwa Savage Covers TW Magazine's October Edition (1)
By Osagie Alonge
Tiwa Savage is getting increasingly intolerant with press scrutiny.
The Pop singer who has covered the October edition of women’s publication TW Magazine lashed out the editors of the publication over a review of her debut album ‘Once Upon a Time‘. Apparently, Tiwa thinks the writer didn’t understand what she was reviewing.
S/O Adeola Omitiran n Bukola Fagade.So called editors of TW mag.PS didn’t use low register on “babymo”maybe u shld study music b4 u judge it‘, Tiwa angrily wrote on her Twitter, October 18, 2013.
NET has discovered that the reviewer of the album Adeola Omitiran is an intern and her article was not checked or edited by the magazine’s editors before it went to press. The other lady Tiwa named Bukola Fagade has nothing to do with the article as she is only a graphic designer.
Sources tell us Tiwa Savage had called up the editors of the magazine to express her dissatisfaction before the tweet lambast; ‘we thought they settled everything over the phone until we saw Tiwa’s tweet, I wonder why she still went unto the blast the girl‘ one insider told NET.
Tiwa also picked at NET’s contributing writer Ayomide Tayo who wrote about her music career earlier in April 2013.
Read Omitiran’s review of Tiwa Savage’s ‘Once Upon a Time’.
‘Once Upon A Time opens with a Disney inspired fairy tale account of Tiwa Savage’s relationship with her manager Tunji ‘TBillz’ Balogun. Wanted, potent and upbeat reggae track, works as a great opener. Her lower register mode of singing works on Ileke, – a roll call for females to shake their booty – but fails miserably on others like Ejim Afia and Baby Mo.
Tiwa Svaage is the first and foremost and RnB artiste and she doesn’t hide her natural comfort zone on quite a number of tracks as Olorun Mi, Middle Passage and Get Low. Her foray in pop music isn’t a total disaster, her Kele Kele and Love me x3 are exquisitely crafted pieces but the subtle Folarin fails to blow the mind. With 21 songs, one has to dig deep to find the real substance with too many fillers, too much autotune and too much Don Jazzy. However for a debut album, it’s commendable effort’.
