Tiwa Savage reveals how Don Jazzy gave her a second chance in music

Tiwa Savage has opened up about the unexpected path that eventually led her into Nigeria’s mainstream music industry, revealing that she was never an official member of the former MoHits crew.

Speaking candidly about her journey, the award-winning singer explained that her connection to the group initially came through friendship rather than music business ties.

I was never officially part of MoHits; I just came as a friend when Don Jazzy started Mavins, and I shamelessly begged him again to sign me, and he agreed,” she said.

Her revelation offers a deeper look into the determination behind her success story, especially at a time when breaking into the industry was far from easy.

Tiwa Savage eventually became one of the earliest female stars under the Mavins label, going on to build a successful career that positioned her among the biggest names in African music.

The singer’s remarks have since sparked conversations online, with many fans praising her honesty, humility, and persistence despite her current superstar status.
