It has been a silent start to 2019 for singer and songwriter, Tiwa Savage, who has been nicknamed by her fans, the Beyonce of African music or the African music goddess — until the announcement of her huge Universal Music Group deal.

The first quarter of the year found the 39-year-old sensation’s name in the tabloids for either being dumped by her rumoured boyfriend Wizkid or removed from her record label Mavin Records. But all was put to rest when she made a brief media appearance with her very good friend, founder of Mavin Records Don Jazzy, on her birthday in February expressing good wishes to her.

Whatever the negative words the media had for the singer has quickly been thrown in the past as she casually posted a photo on Instagram and Twitter with the caption, New Era. It quickly followed with another photo showing her signing a contract with one of the world’s biggest musical groups Universal Music Group.
