Here are 45 iconic Tiwa Savage songs as she clocks 45

Tiwa Savage is a singer-songwriter and performer extraordinaire.

The multi award-winning artist has been recognised across the globe for her signature sultry voice. Her catalogue houses chart-topping hits, club bangers, and evergreen anthems.

These 45 songs showcase her versatility and remind us of her more than a decade-long dominance.

45. Attention

The No 1 ABG delivered this record in 2019, shortly before her critically-acclaimed album, ‘Celia‘ was released in 2020. On ‘Attention‘, Tiwa is vulnerable and sings about an unresponsive lover whom she warns will lose her to someone else if he doesn’t give her quality attention on a Black Jheerze-produced mid-tempo beat.

44. Tiwa’s Vibe

This Spellz-produced party-starter was an instant hit in the club in 2018. Tiwa tells us she’s “self paid” and only about opulent spirits on this upbeat record with a blend of electronic guitar and synth chord progressions.

43. Bad feat Wizkid

Appearing on the deluxe version of her sophomore album released in 2016, ‘R.E.D‘, ‘Bad‘ is the first instalment of her trifecta collabo run with Wizkid.

Ms Savage melodiously chants the hook, warning an unnamed subject not to play with her on this P2J-produced record.

42. Key to the City Remix feat Busy Signal

Collaborating with Jamaican dancehall artist, Busy Signal, Tiwa flexes her songwriting muscles on this Spellz-produced Afro Dancehall record.

Blending African and Caribbean musical elements, Key to the City is one of the songs that embody Tiwa’s range.

41. Love Me Hard feat 2face

Ms Savage is a lover girl and she proves it on this underrated track which is again off her second studio album, ‘R.E.D’. Recruiting 2baba for a verse, Tiwa shows she loves a good reggae infusion.

Blending her amazing vocals with 2baba’s on the groovy Carribbean-leaning production, Love Me Hard is a timeless gem.

40. Sugarcane

On ‘Sugarcane’, Tiwa is a full pop star singing about a guilty pleasure as in “something wey sweet pass sugarcane“. She also says she is down for forever as her man is making her feel like a “Cinderella”.

Tiwa and Spellz are a match made in music heaven. What!

39. Before Nko feat D’Prince

D’Prince and Tiwa go on a sonically-pleasing journey together on this upbeat, rhythmic flow infused with a groovy bassline and percussive elements like kick drums, claps, and snare.

Before Nko feeds into the African Bad Girl imagery that has now been synonymous with Ms Savage’s persona. D’Prince asks, “So you bad now?” to which Tiwa echoes “Before nko.“

38. If I Start To Talk feat Dr Sid

One of the most delightful funk-inspired groove tracks you can ever think of from Tiwa’s catalogue is If I Start To Talk. The chemistry she shared with then label-mate, Dr Sid on this record is one for the books.

37. One

Some songs are for celebrating wins and Ms. Savage’s ‘One‘ is one of them (pun unintended). Bar the initial controversy, this soft tempo Afrobeats jam with a smooth rhythmical flow has the singer in a reflective and grateful mood.

36. Make Time feat Iceberg Slim

‘Make Time‘ is a testament to Tiwa Savage’s songwriting mastery as it tells a familiar story of a lady needing her man to make more time for her. Off the album, ‘R.E.D‘, Tiwa and Iceberg Slim demonstrate enviable chemistry required for an emotional depth that is compelling enough for the track to stick.

35. African Waist feat Don Jazzy

If Tiwa Savage and Spellz are a match made in musical heaven, Don Jazzy and Tiwa embody a perfect synergy that adds spice, substance, and flavour to their collaborations.
