Singer Tems recently expressed her belief that there should be no set standard for how artists dress.
In an interview with Essence Magazine, she emphasized the importance of artists showcasing their individual styles, highlighting that people’s uniqueness is what sets them apart.
Tems clarified that her fashion choices are a reflection of her authenticity rather than a deliberate message.
“You should be yourself even if something else is expected of you. You win, automatically, when you are yourself, no matter what that looks like. That’s why there’s variety.
“We are different and are not all meant to be the same. And I know there is a standard, but there shouldn’t be a standard for what people should dress like if they are artistes, or what people should dress like if they are women.
“I just feel like we are all unique. There shouldn’t be a requirement. There shouldn’t be a requirement or some kind of expectation that you should dress a certain way.”
