    TEMS is a Nigerian princess and songstress. She is phenomenal. As a Nigerian myself I love her artistry so much and I wish her nothing but the highest height in her musical career.

      listen i’ll tell you rn baby girl pleaseeee i’m begging you leave the job
      honestly leave it
      follow your passion if you feel sad working a 9-5 now and u stick to it in the next 3-4 years you’d have wasted more time and you’ll feel much more miserable
      so please leave it’s better for you to chase your passion and do what you love than for you to work a job just to make ends meet yunno.
      like me i’m 20 i want to be a basketball player and i don’t see myself working a 9-5.
      i’d rather spend my time chasing my dream doing what i love and not succeeding than work some 9-5 every single day 5 days a week for 20-30-40 years

    Nigeria and Africa as a whole have several genre's like anywhere else in the world
    We have afrobeats, afrobeat, gengeton, amanpiano, zouk makossa, afropop and 100s of local sounds in addition to international imports like the regular R&B ,Rap, reggae , .. so we shouldn't be put in a box we have many R&B and jazz singers that can compete with Americans anyday.. and reggea artists that can compete with the Jamaicans but we can give you a pass cos you are only just discovering us. But you cant just lump a country like Nigerian into a box. Much less Africa that has 54 big ass countries. Or maybe the powers that be dont want to compete hense shoving us in a box😅😅😅 😅

    EXACTLY what the artist Flavour speaks on about the genre labeling of why does the beat of Nigerian and other Afrikan music have to immediately be categorized as Afrobeats? Flavour's music is consider the old school of Nigerian music, KNOWN AS HIGHLIFE. It's a fusion of several beats such as; Jazz, Clypso, R&B, Afrobeats, Reggae, and in my opinion, Latino included, recent sounds of new music I heard Indigenous Indian, Native Amerikan pfunk. Best of the Best Tems and don't allow any one to group you or cage you.
