Ruger Thanks Tiwa Savage for Support Amidst Industry Challenges
Emerging Nigerian artist Ruger has opened up about the challenges he faced after leaving his record label, revealing that he was threatened and faced negative backlash from industry stakeholders. In a heartfelt statement, he expressed gratitude towards fellow artist Tiwa Savage for her unwavering support during a difficult time in his career.
Ruger shared his experience, stating, “When I left my record label, they threatened me and said I will never make a hit song again.” He disclosed that the label reached out to various industry figures, including other artists, to spread negative sentiments about him. Despite this adversity, Ruger found solace in the support of Tiwa Savage, who chose to ignore the rumors and negativity surrounding him.
“I want to appreciate Tiwa because she ignored all the side talks about me and decided to jump on my song,” Ruger said, referring to their collaboration on the track “Toma Toma.” He recounted how he reached out to Tiwa while she was busy shooting her movie “Water & Garri.” Despite her hectic schedule, she took the time to record her verse and send it to him without asking for any payment.
Ruger expressed his astonishment at Tiwa’s generosity, stating, “Even when we got to the video shoot, I had already budgeted to pay for her appearance, but she declined, saying, ‘Nah! My boy, count this as my Christmas gift to you!'” He added, “Omo, I no fit shout. I love that woman. God bless her.”
The collaboration between Ruger and Tiwa Savage has been well-received, with “Toma Toma” gaining significant traction in the music scene. Ruger’s heartfelt acknowledgment of Tiwa’s kindness highlights the importance of solidarity and support among artists, especially in an industry that can often be competitive and unforgiving.
As Ruger continues to navigate his career, the support from Tiwa Savage serves as a reminder of the power of camaraderie and mentorship in the music industry. With her encouragement, Ruger remains determined to prove his critics wrong and make a lasting impact in the Afrobeat genre.
