Nigerian music sensation Tiwa Savage has added fuel to the ongoing “Big 3” or “Big 4” conversation in the music industry. The term “Big 3” commonly refers to Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy, celebrated for their global influence and chart-topping hits. However, fans and industry insiders have debated whether a fourth name should join this prestigious list, with artists like Tiwa Savage, Rema, and Asake frequently brought up as contenders.
During an interview on The Beat 99.9 FM, Tiwa was asked how she felt about the “Big 3” discussions. With characteristic confidence, she expressed her view:
“If we are to go talent for talent, mic for mic, I am the Big 1. If you take off the numbers and whatever you want to judge the big whatever with, you can’t see me on the mic.”
While she acknowledged the “Big 3” rankings, she emphasized that, in her view, pure musical talent should weigh heavily in such discussions. Her statement has since sparked a lively debate among fans, with many applauding her confidence and others dissecting what constitutes “greatness” in the industry.
