Her latest single ” 49-49 ” is a reference to the line “49 sittings, 99 standing” from Fela Kuti’s 1978 hit “Suffering and Smiling.” According to Tiwa Savage in a press release, it reflects the “hard life many Nigerians go through.” She goes on to mention that “a transit bus serves as a case study. It ought to have only 49 seated passengers, however, due to poor economic conditions, we often have nearly twice that number of passengers standing (99).”
