The Nigerian entertainment industry has proven to be a very tough one for female musicians, both regarding the competition they face from other artistes and also the hate they face from trolls.
One of the top female musicians in the country, Tiwa Savage, is also not exempted from the downsides of being in the competitive industry.
Just recently, the Attention crooner took to social media via her Twitter page to express dismay at the hate she faces from some female fans.
It all started when a troll had compared Tiwa to another singer Simi. The troll said that Simi sings for people in good and happy relationships while Tiwa Savage sings for call girls.
Another Twitter user reacted to the troll’s post by saying that Tiwa is often disrespected by other women even though she has helped put Nigerian music on the map.
Tiwa agreed to the fan’s post and said that she doubts the hate will ever stop. She also compared the hate she receives from fans to how her foreign counterparts like Rihanna and Beyonce are shown great love by their fans.
Tiwa has the idea that a black woman can be so much more. She expressed that a lot of people still have the idea that a woman must be submis*sive and stay at home as a wife or mother.
Expressing herself further, Tiwa, who is also a mother of one, said that these are not such bad values to keep but that she feels a woman can be so much more because a modern black woman is being limited.
