Why I won’t sign any artiste — Tiwa Savage

Renowned singer Tiwa Savage has revealed that she has no intention of signing upcoming artists, citing the stress that comes with managing musicians.

In an interview with Forbes Africa, Savage explained that while many people expect her to sign new talents, she does not believe she has the capacity to handle the responsibility.

“Everyone always says to me, ‘When are you going to sign an artiste?’ I don’t think I have the gift to sign another artiste, because artistes are stressful. I could just be sleeping, and then I will wake up and my artist is trending for something else,” she said.

Instead of signing artists directly, the Afrobeats star intends to support emerging talents through different initiatives.

She revealed that she is in the process of establishing a music school where aspiring musicians can hone their skills.

“But I do have the gift to help, which is why I am trying to do the music school, where you can go and later sign to a label that can actually help you,” she added.
