Singer Tiwa Savage has stirred controversy with a bold remark about the widely accepted ‘Afrobeats Top 3’.
According to reports from a popular Nigerian news outlet, Wizkid, Burna Boy, and Davido are commonly referred to as the “Big 3” of the Afrobeats scene.
However, during her recent concert in London, Tiwa Savage appeared to challenge the male-dominated ranking suggesting it carries misogynistic undertones and bluntly dismissed the label using strong language.
“I don’t want to say a lot of things because I will be trending by tomorrow. F**k the Top 3,” she yelled midway into her performance.
Despite being regarded by man as the ‘Queen of Afrobeats’, Tiwa Savage is often excluded from the many male-dominated purported lists of Afrobeats Top artists.
During the concert, Savage also brought out her son, Jamil, on stage for the first time.
She had stated in a previous interview that she wouldn’t let her son pursue a career in music.
