Tiwa Savage Reveals the Reason She Left Mavin Records

Popular Nigerian Singer, Tiwa Savage has revealed why she exited the Don Jazzy-led Mavin Records.

Mavin first lady exited after reportedly signing a new deal with Universal Music Group, an American music company that boasts of artists like Rihanna, Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga.

Confirming the development, Don Jazzy in a farewell message on his Instagram handle thanked Tiwa Savage for an amazing seven years with the label.


He wrote, “Our darling Tiwatope. We at Mavin would like to say a very big thank you for being such an inspiration to all of us, a friend, a sister.

“It’s been an epic journey with you and we are very proud of what we have achieved together. As you start this new chapter in your life we want you to know that we are solidly behind you and can’t wait for the world to see what we have always believed you can be.

“Your jersey as the first lady of Mavin will forever be yours as we do not intend to fill that position with anyone else. We love you from the bottom of our hearts and pray God’s blessings to continue to follow you.”


However, reacting to the Don Jazzy’s farewell message the ‘Darlin’ crooner said she was leaving the label to make Don Jazzy proud.

She wrote, ”When I got pregnant, I was nervous to tell you so I decided to tell you at the airport when we were travelling for a show. I figured you couldn’t really say much in a public place but then you told me you already knew and had already been thinking of a plan to keep my brand going while I took some time out.

”I was shocked because you weren’t phased by the news, you had already started making plans. I recorded the RED album while I was heavy and I would fall asleep during sessions and you and the whole team would crash in the studio right there with me till I woke up again and was ready to finish recording.

”There was nothing you would hear about me that ever made you mad, no outfit was too crazy, no headline was too controversial for you to handle no crazy outburst no nothing. If I said today wasn’t emotional for me I would be LYING.

” Please promise me that our relationship will never change. I only want to make you proud of me. Not every superhero has an S on their chest. You are my superhero DON DORO BUCCI. 7 years, 7 the number of perfection. I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER. Mavin 4life #DiaFada.”
