Two days ago, Tiwa Savage lashed out at two
editors of TW magazine over a review of her
new album which was published in the
magazine. Reading the review, I kinda
understand why Tiwa was upset. The review
was kinda insensitive considering Tiwa was
their cover girl for the month.
Find their review of the album, Once Upon A
Time, below...
'Once Upon A Time opens with a Disney
inspired fairy tale account of Tiwa
Savage's relationship with her manager
Tunji 'TBillz' Balogun. Wanted, potent
and upbeat reggae track, works as a
great opener. Her lower register mode of
singing works on Ileke, – a roll call for
females to shake their booty – but fails
miserably on others like Ejim Afia and
Baby Mo.
Tiwa Svaage is the first and foremost an
RnB artiste and she doesn't hide her
natural comfort zone on quite a number
of tracks as Olorun Mi, Middle Passage
and Get Low. Her foray in pop music
isn't a total disaster, her Kele Kele and
Love me x3 are exquisitely crafted
pieces but the subtle Folarin fails to
blow the mind. With 21 songs, one has
to dig deep to find the real substance
with too many fillers, too much
autotune and too much Don Jazzy.
However for a debut album, it's a
commendable effort'.
Too much auto-tune and too much Don Jazzy?
Wow! I was at the listening party and I was
blown away by a lot of the songs I heard. As
far as I'm concerned, Once Upon A Time is a
good album!
