There’s so much new music being released that it’s hard for even the most loyal fans to wade through the trash to find the gems. That’s why we’ve created #BumpThis – a Friday series that features new songs, by and featuring Nigerians, that you absolutely need to hear.


Following her first solo single of the year, the socially-conscious “49-99”, Tiwa Savage has now come through with two brand new singles, “Owo Mi Da” and “Attention”, with the latter being the stronger release.

On “Attention”, produced by Blaq Jerzee, Tiwa Savage sings about a lover who has stopped putting in the work. “If you no give me quality attention, I might get it from someone else”, she threatens on the chorus.

While the song might not have the party-starting bounce of “49-99” or “Owo Mi Da”, it benefits from being very relatable. “I guarantee all the ladies will know the lyrics to this one”, she said pre-release, and we believe her.
