Tems, a Grammy-winning Nigerian singer, recently spoke up about her struggles with body confidence.
In an interview with YouTuber Korty EO, she discussed how she nearly lost confidence in her beauty due to distractions from producers.
Tems noted that her primary concentration has always been on making music, not her physical looks.
She admitted that her figure had become an impediment to her work, so she began wearing baggy dresses to avoid attention from producers.
“I used to not always like my body. I just didn’t understand a lot of things. I was going to a lot of studios alone, meeting people I didn’t know and had never met. I’ll message people to ask them to teach me how to produce music for people”.
“So, because of my objective which is just wanting to make music, if my being attractive is disturbing you and stopping me from achieving my goal, I am going to help you. So, when I go to the studio, I wear like baggy clothes and I’m in my alpha mode because I want you to not be seduced by me.”*
