Two of Nigeria’s most prominent musical talents, Ruger and Tiwa Savage, have collaborated on the highly anticipated new single ‘Toma Toma’, which was released on Friday, November 15, 2024.
In ‘Toma Toma’, Ruger’s beloved vocal melodies merge seamlessly with a vibrant, percussion-driven Ballie Funk-inspired Afrobeats instrumental, expertly crafted by Kukbeatz.
Tiwa Savage, a stalwart of Afrobeats, lends her distinctive and enchanting vocals to the track, showcasing the effortless synergy between two of Nigeria’s leading stars.
The year 2024 has proven to be exceptionally dynamic for Ruger, particularly following the success of his joint EP with BNXN titled ‘POE’, which has achieved remarkable acclaim, driven by a lead single that has amassed 27 million streams and reached the top position on both Spotify and Apple Music in Nigeria.
This summer, he released a double A-side single, ‘Luv Again / Make Way’, and provided a remix for Clean Bandit, Anne-Marie, and David Guetta’s hit single ‘Cry Baby’. Additionally, he has been extensively touring across Europe, participating in notable festivals such as DLT Malta Festival and Wireless Festival in London.
Since his emergence in the music industry just three years ago, Ruger has established himself as one of the most exhilarating artists, recognized for his unique fusion of Afrobeats and dancehall.
Recently, Ruger completed an eight-date tour across Canada, performing in cities such as Montreal, Vancouver, and Toronto. This follows a busy summer filled with performances in the UK, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, with standout moments including a sold-out concert at The Outernet in London, The Rockefeller Music Hall in Oslo, and Le Bataclan in Paris.
