It’s the every time I fell and still found a way to shine, for every lesson dressed in pain, every smile I wore through the rain” reflect a journey marked by challenges and triumphs. She continues, “I wear my dress tight, big ass, sexy tattoo on my left thigh. You may judge the way I talk but I’m raising a king and balancing trains… Don’t box me in, don’t deem my light, don’t test my will…”

While Tiwa has not officially confirmed whether This One Is Personal is a single or a full album, the deeply personal tone of the teaser suggests a comprehensive body of work. The reference to this being her fifth album, coupled with the emotionally charged content, indicates that the project will draw from her lived experiences, both as a woman and a mother.

The announcement of This One Is Personal has sparked widespread excitement among fans, with the hashtag #TOIP trending on social media. Tiwa’s openness about her journey and the emotional depth of the teaser have resonated deeply with her audience, who eagerly await the full release.​
