Eric Bellinger and Tiwa Savage unite for “Understood (Remix)”

Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, and producer Eric Bellinger has teamed up with Nigerian music sensation Tiwa Savage for a sultry new single, “Understood (Remix).”

 The collaboration blends Bellinger’s signature smooth R&B sound with Tiwa’s Afrobeats flair, creating a heartfelt anthem about love, communication, and emotional connection 

“I’ve been a fan of Tiwa for years,” Bellinger shared.

 “I first met her through my longtime friend and producer Harmony Samuels, who worked with her before I even started releasing solo music. I always hoped we’d collaborate, and now, over a decade later, it finally happened.”

 The project builds on the sound he introduced with his 2024 album, It’ll All Make Sense Later, which featured the original version of “Understood.”

 Recorded in Cape Town, South Africa, with a collective of African artists, producers, and songwriters, the new album marks what Bellinger describes as a “faith walk”, a transformative creative journey that allowed him to embrace authenticity and global collaboration.

As part of his interactive approach to music-making, Bellinger has invited fans to join in the creative process. For It All Makes Sense, he previewed snippets of songs online and asked followers to vote for the next single.

The winning track, “Vogue,” now headlines his #OpenVerseChallenge, where aspiring artists record and share their own verses for a chance to be featured on his Instagram page

In addition to the new music, Bellinger recently launched his own independent distribution label, All Wins Entertainment.  “It’s been a long time coming, so much blood, sweat, and tears to get here, and we’re still just getting started,” he said.
