“I wish D’banj and Don Jazzy can come back together” – Tiwa Savage

Posted by: b3rrilyn in Interview Aug 7, 2013

Tiwa, Mavin Records’ first lady, said somewhere at the back of her mind, she prays that the two music luminaries and founders of defunct Mo’Hits Records should come back together.

I am still in shock and when I listen to songs like ‘Suddenly’, I am like is this really happening? And I feel like they have left a void in the music industry in Nigeria and in Africa

Tiwa said in a special feature on her in the latest edition of Style Mania magazine.

The songstress said she could not really point to what caused the rift between the two friends beyond different news reports she read in the media.

Tiwa, however, admitted that in line with some people’s perception of Don Jazzy, the super producer is indeed a ‘mysterious’ guy.

I’ll tell you the honest truth about Don Jazzy.. he really is like that. He doesn’t really open his heart easily to people. He just accepts what happens and he moves on. I mean he is the Don, so I can’t go up to him and say “Jazzy, what really happened. I just keep my mouth shut”, she said.

In the interview, Tiwa defended the open show of sensitive body parts in her video which has attracted a lot of flakes.

You know a lot of people say that in Africa we don’t like to expose ourselves and that is actually a big lie because if you check the history of Africa, we were actually very exposed. So I think it is quite ironic because people think that the western world is influencing us whereas we are the ones influencing the western world

Tiwa argued.
