Tiwa Savage has released “Lost Time” today, the first single from the album “Water & Garri – The Soundtrack.”

“Water & Garri” is a feature film produced by Everything Savage and Unbound Studios, scheduled for release on May 10, 2024, on Prime Video, with the full soundtrack also released on the same day through EMPIRE. Produced by Khari ‘Needlz’ Cain (known for working with Bruno Mars, Drake, and Cardi B) and Poo Bear (known for collaborations with Justin Bieber, TY Dolla, and Usher), “Lost Time” is a captivating, guitar-led mid-tempo track where Tiwa Savage reminisces about past love and yearns to relive happier times.

The immersive soundtrack album was curated by Savage and includes ten original songs from Tiwa, along with featured artists from the worlds of Afropop, R&B, and Hip Hop. Notable names such as Grammy-nominated stars Olamide and Ayra Starr, respected Nigerian singer-songwriter ASA, Cameroonian multi-instrumentalist and singer Richard Bona, gospel artist Zacardi Cortez, and newer talents like Black Sherif, Young Jonn, Mystro Sugar, and The Cavemen all contribute to the album.

The release of the “Water & Garri” film and its accompanying soundtrack marks a pivotal chapter in Tiwa Savage’s artistic journey as she ventures into the world of film, taking on her first lead role and serving as its Executive Producer. In the film, Tiwa plays the role of Aisha, an ambitious fashion designer who returns to her native home ‘Eastside’ after 10 years away in the United States following a family bereavement. At home, Aisha finds that things have drastically changed, violence has escalated, and tensions are high. As she reconnects with family, old friends, and her past love, she must learn to live with her scars and confront the guilt she left behind.
