Afrobeats sensation Tiwa Savage has attributed the surge of entertainers emerging from Nigeria to the economic hardship faced by many in the country.
The singer suggested that the difficult living conditions are pushing young Nigerians to explore their creative talents as a means of survival.
Speaking on the ‘Shopping The Sneakers’ podcast, Savage said that the challenges of living in Nigeria drive an unmatched hustle spirit among the youth, resulting in a thriving entertainment industry.
“When you come to Nigeria, you will understand why we breed so many superstars. To survive in Nigeria is something else, so that’s why the artists that come out of Nigeria are just like hustlers. They are just hustling,” she said.
