Tiwa wears the crown of the 'Queen of Afrobeats’ and she deserves all her flowers. The extremely talented artiste set Windsor on fire with her incredible performance at the coronation concert of King Charles III and Queen Camilla at Windsor castle in England. The crowd livened up when the announcer went, “next up tonight on the coronation concert stage, it’s the queen of afro beats" setting Windsor ablaze with loud screams and cheers. The highly expectant crowd couldn’t wait to be blown away by the exceptionally gifted as it exploded in thunderous applause immediately Tiwa Savage's face got illuminated by the warm stage lighting. This was the most iconic moment for her, being the very first black female Nigerian artiste to perform at a coronation ceremony while she graced the coronation concert of King Charles III and Queen Camilla at Windsor Castle in England. With way above 20000 people in live attendance and over 17 million viewers online globally.

When that emerald green dress touched the stage, there was no doubt the performance was going to be splendid. The star looked absolutely amazing in her dress by the renowned Nigerian Designer Lanre Da Silva. Taking her time as she strode down the aisle to take her place on the world-widely viewed stage, Tiwa wears a beautiful African smile, the charm, the charisma. This was a whole new opening for her performances. If you’ve followed Tiwa Savage long enough you’d know that she loves her an unforgettable entrance and opening to her performances, but this one was mellow, that feather-touch-groove as the first note was played euphoniously drifting the crowd away into Tiwa’s marvelous musical escapade.

Flanked by an ensemble with violins and cellos and tremendously energized and passionate percussionists playing the Nigerian local Yoruba talking drum to create that beautiful fusion between afrobeats and Rnb and pop yielding this mysterious sound that beautifully transcends any extra ordinary sound, it was ethereal and yet really soothing and smooth. She swerved and swayed gracefully to the sound of the music whose rhythms and patterns were crafted tenderly and circumspectly to give the performance a touch of royalty.

The fusion between an ensemble with violins and cellos and the local percussion instruments from Nigeria in it-self is music closing up cultural gaps, the instrumentation was mindfully curated, there was a certain form of chemistry between them already and Tiwa just hoped on that wagon to add a voice to these wonderful melodies throughout her performance.

Talk about more spice and more mystery and surprise, this time she decided she needed to do it while everyone was already high off her rhythms  when mid-performance she added even more ear and eye candy to the performance when gets joined by two highly skilled percussionists playing the ‘Bata’ Talking drum. Screams mixed with applause and a joy filled room created an other-worldly atmosphere electrocuted by her incredibly amazing execution of musical prowess as she served justice to “keys to the kingdom” a beautiful piece and product of purely top-tier musical workmanship that featured on Beyoncé’s The Lion king’ album and was co-produced by Mr. Eazi in  July of 2019. The motivating music piece combines elements of both Yoruba and English, intended to encourage perseverance and conquer feelings of uncertainty talk about ‘Perfect song for the occasion.’

This splendid performance was irresistible as always and just like I wasn’t surprised it was no shock when King Charles who couldn’t help himself went ahead to groove to the music. This electric and marvelous performance did earn Tiwa a well-deserved standing ovation and endless applause from the crowd kept the energy going.

In an interview post-performance, Tiwa Savage spoke of how it was such a great honor to take part in the historic night and stressed how proud she was to represent Africa on such a global stage. Tiwa Savage was not the only African artiste to grace the event as the first African artiste to sing solo that night pretty Yende wearing a beautiful yellow dress performed “sacred fire” written by British composer Sarah Class especially for the occasion. She did quite a lovely job as well.

What a time to be alive, what a historical night that was! The energy, absolutely lovely vocals and amazing dance moves Tiwa Savage brought to Windsor cannot be forgotten. Tiwa savage’s performance at the coronation was a very historic moment not only for her but for Africa and the world at large as it signified how people from all walks of life, regardless of race could come together through music to bridge cultural gaps.
