I WAS VERY NAIVE AT THE START OF MY CAREER – TEMS
Temilade Openiyi, better known by her stage as Tems, is a Grammy-winning Nigerian singer who has talked candidly about her early career.
At the start of her career, the “Essence” crooner acknowledged that she was incredibly ignorant.
It took her some time to figure out how to deal with the music industry in a constructive way, Tems said in an interview with Glamour Magazine Germany.
“I don’t want to lie. I was very naive at the beginning of my career – I just wanted to make good art. I had to learn how to navigate the music business in a healthy way,” she said.
Tems shared that her management and family have been her backbone.
“I would say that it is both my management and my family that keep me grounded. Especially my family, my mother and my brother,” she added.
