God Created Sex and we are
Supposed to be Sexy as well as we are Wholesome, Smart, Intelligent???
Tiwa Savage is no doubt a
household name in the entertainment industry. The Marvin First Lady has so many
hits to her credit especially with the ‘Doro Boss’ Don Jazzy. In fact, the
songstress has set a standard for herself in terms of music, style and class. Applauded!!!
The sensational singer who, (according
to people that know) maybe expecting a baby with her husband Teebillz; is one
of the four covers stars of Blanck Magazine’s latest issue and in the magazine
she talks about returning home, her massive successes and controversies as well
as her thoughts on feminism and over sexualization of music videos.
Read excerpts from her interview
below!
On
using nudity and over sexualisation as a selling point:
Definitely not! There are a lot
of sexy women in the industry and I’m still selling. So if it was just sexiness
that sells my music, people would have forgotten about me by now. But first and
foremost, the music is important, everything else is a part of a package and I
think that people generally know that music is in me and is my first love. I
studied music, so I always concentrate more on it. If the music is right then
everything is packaging. They are the things we use in drawing attention to the
brand. For me, I think my brand has a heathy balance. All my videos tell
different stories about the individual behind the music.
On
being a feminist:
No! I don’t think I am. (Laughs).
Ok, may be a passive feminist. With regards to baring one’s body on stage, I
don’t think it’s proper to attack the ladies for doing this, while you give
nods to their male counterparts for doing the exact same thing. I think people
need to learn how to separate the job from who the artist really is. What you
do on stage is a job and not necessarily who you are. There’s a time for
everything. God created sex and we are supposed to be sexy as well as we are
wholesome; smart, intelligent etc. There are times when I know I’m supposed to
appear on stage in a classy and simple but cute dress but there are other times
where I’m expected to take some fashion risks depending on the kind of crowd I
am performing to.
