She stated this while performing the song which is one of the tracks in her 2021 EP Album, water and garri, at a recent event.
According to the 42-year-old Afrobeats superstar, the heartbreak song in which she featured American singer, Brandy, was not inspired by a love affair or relationship, but by the son of God, Jesus Christ.
Speaking to the cheers and applauds of the audience, Tiwa Savage said,
When I wrote this song, a lot of people told me it wasn’t going to be a hit because only females will sing along to it.
They said “Tiwa this is not going to be a hit because men are not gonna be able to sing Somebody’s son.”
But you know what I told them, when I wrote this song, I was not even thinking about a relationship, I was thinking about Jesus Christ because he is the real somebody’s son.
So I said to them, people will relate to the song because whether you are a man or a woman, we all need somebody’s son.”
