‘In My Head’ by Timaya and Tiwa Savage is the awakening we need to challenge ourselves to accept that we have finally realized what had been lacking for the entire previous month.
During the first quarter of the year, we all could vouch for an afrobeat playlist enriched with diverse styles and blends of sounds, including the ones that haven’t gotten over Amapiano yet. We can come together to say that our multitalented Nigerian artists duly catered to our moods and tastes in music. This declaration would not be complete without the mention of the larger-than-ever space afrobeats occupied in this year’s Grammy Awards nominations. With this treasured genre, the global standard for music is upheld at every unit of time.
Timaya and Tiwa Savage, in the wake of the second quarter, challenged us to accept that we had finally realized what had been lacking for the entire previous month. They accomplished this with hints that were revealed a little before the release of this brand-new song, ‘In My Head,’ which happens to be the most sensual tune we have been deficient of the whole time.

Upon this realization, the younger generation of music consumers is hereby beckoned on a trip to the early 2000s, when Timaya’s reputation as the King of Dancehall first began to take effect and has remained strong for more than 20 years. The same would be said of the Queen of Afrobeats, Tiwa Savage, who has also thrived for well over a decade in the rocket-speed, evolving industry.
The coming together of this iconic duo to slake our oblivious drought for a sensual sound with not just a sultry but an epic new single and visuals will have an impact on our aroused senses for longer than we can fathom.
Timaya on ‘In My Head’ reaffirms his sought-after honcho status, a persona depicted with the catchy phrase ‘Papi Chulo’ and a seductive call for Tiwa’s charming vocals to create a wonderful duet. The inestimable creative contribution of Xtreme The Producer, Fiokee, the renowned guitarist and director Pink on the video, cooked up an Afro-pop classic with the proper amount of heat. What is left is already taking place, with Nigerians scooping up the new music as though they’ve been waiting for it all their lives. Timaya promises that this is just the tip of the iceberg in anticipation of his ninth studio album, “Gladiator,” set to drop on May 31st.
