Nigerian music icon Tiwa Savage recently shared her thoughts on the timing of her career breakthrough, explaining that she believes it was part of a greater divine plan. On a recent episode of The Receipts podcast, the 44-year-old singer reflected on how God’s timing played a significant role in her rise to success.
“I feel like God has done this on purpose,” Tiwa said. “God delayed my success for a purpose. I used to be like, why wasn’t I successful in my twenties? I started succeeding in my thirties.”
She went on to explain that her story was meant to inspire others, especially young women who may feel uncertain about their futures. “It’s to bless other people. It’s to bless that 25-year-old girl who’s scared about what the future holds,” she continued. “If she opens my page and sees that I started in my thirties, she would be like, ‘I still have time.’”
Having started her music career in her late twenties, Tiwa gained widespread recognition in her thirties and is now considered one of Africa’s most accomplished female artists. Her journey offers hope and reassurance to those who may feel pressured to succeed early in life, proving that success can arrive at any age.
