Tiwa Savage has said goodbye to Mavin Records to sign an exclusive global recording deal with Universal Music Group (UMG).
Under the agreement, Tiwa’s music will be released internationally through UMG’s operations in more than 60 countries worldwide. Projects will be executively produced by Efe Ogbeni of Regime Music Societe and Vannessa Amadi-Ogbonna.
The move sees Tiwa exiting Don Jazzy’s Mavin Records after seven years.
Speaking on the deal, Tiwa said: “My biggest goal is to make Africa proud. I’m so excited for this moment and I’m thankful to Sir Lucian Grainge and my new UMG family for their belief in my dreams. I’m looking forward to this next chapter in my career and I’m more ready than I have ever been.”
