Tiwa Savage teams up with UK legend Skepta on new single
If you’ve been craving something soulful, bold, and unapologetically real, Tiwa Savage has just delivered.
The Afrobeats powerhouse has officially announced her new album This One Is Personal, set to drop on August 29th. And to kick things off, she’s teamed up with UK rap legend Skepta for a steamy new single, “On The Low,” that’s already turning heads.
Produced by Rymez (whose credits include Wiley, Stefflon Don, and Wretch 32), “On The Low” is a slow-burning R&B track that explores the quiet tension of a relationship kept under wraps. Tiwa’s signature vocals glide effortlessly over the beat, while Skepta’s verse adds a raw, introspective edge. It’s intimate, moody, and magnetic—like a whispered secret you can’t stop replaying.
This collab feels long overdue. Tiwa and Skepta have been mutual fans for years, and now they’ve finally joined forces to create something that feels both fresh and deeply familiar.
The cover art for This One Is Personal shows Tiwa perched atop a towering stack of mattresses—each one representing a chapter of her life: love, loss, growth, survival. It’s not just visually striking; it’s a metaphor for the emotional layers she’s peeled back to create this album.
In her own words:
“Blood, sweat and literal tears… This record isn’t about proving anything to anyone, it is me pouring my emotions in notes and creating music from my heart.”

Born in Lagos, raised in London, and educated in the U.S., Tiwa’s journey has been a masterclass in resilience and reinvention. She’s written Grammy-nominated tracks for Beyoncé, sung backing vocals for Whitney Houston, and collaborated with everyone from Brandy and Nas to Wizkid, Sam Smith, and Bob Marley. Her recent headline performance at Little Simz’s Meltdown Festival was a show-stopping reminder that Tiwa isn’t just part of the Afrobeats wave—she helped build it. And she’s not stopping at music. In 2024, she made her acting and producing debut with Water & Garri, proving her creative reach knows no bounds.
This isn’t just another album drop. It’s Tiwa Savage giving us a piece of her heart. With nearly 3 million monthly Spotify listeners and 18 million Instagram followers, she’s got the numbers—but This One Is Personal is about the stories behind them.
So mark your calendar for August 29th. Whether you’re a longtime fan or just discovering her magic, Tiwa Savage is about to take you on a journey—and trust us, you’ll want to be along for the ride.
