Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage has finally broken her silence on the long-standing feud with fellow artist Seyi Shay, revealing that she was taken aback by the accusations that she tried to block opportunities for other female artists.
The Feud’s Origin Story
According to Tiwa Savage, the misunderstanding began after a diss track was released, accompanied by claims that she had allegedly tried to sabotage other artists’ careers. Tiwa denied these allegations, stating she has always been supportive of women in the industry.
Seyi Shay’s Revelation
Seyi Shay recently opened up about the feud, revealing that her former personal assistant had confessed to having an affair with Tiwa Savage’s ex-husband, Tunji Balogun (TeeBillz). Seyi Shay claimed she had no knowledge of the affair and believes Tiwa Savage might have thought she was aware and condoned it, leading to the rift between them.
The Salon Confrontation
The tension between the singers boiled over in 2021 at a popular salon in Lekki, where a heated exchange was captured on camera. The confrontation was a culmination of years of subtle rivalry and public drama between the two artists.
