ALBUM REVIEW: In This One is Personal, Tiwa Savage reclaims voice after heartbreak
Grief often carries a different weight than joy, and Tiwa Savage makes that clear in her fourth album, ‘This One is Personal’.
Unlike the playful energy of earlier hits like All Over, this project is heavier, coloured by heartbreak and the fragments of failed relationships.
In a recent interview with Zeze Millz, she admitted that her relationship life has been complicated and confessed that her son remains the only true love she has ever experienced. That statement finds strong expression in the album itself.
Ahead of the release, she also told fans on X that the album is her story. True to her words, fingerprints of her love life are embedded in the 15-track body of work.
After a five-year break, the 45-year-old singer returned on 28 August with her fourth studio album, ‘This One is Personal’.
