Tiwa Savage, the world-famous Afrobeats star, has revealed what inspired her to become a musician.

The ‘Koroba’ crooner said her dream was to become an actress but she delved into music because of a man she had a crush on.

According to her, her crush was always around musicians so she ditched her “first love,” acting for music.

She disclosed this in a recent interview with MTV.

Savage said, “I have always wanted to do acting. Acting was one of my first loves 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.’”

Recall that Tiwa Savage recently announced that her debut movie, ‘Water And Garri’ will be released on May 10, 2024, via global streaming giant, Prime Video.
