Tems Announces She's "Off the Streets" in TikTok Livestream

Nigerian Grammy-winning singer Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, announced during a TikTok livestream on Monday that she is officially “off the streets.” She expressed her experiences with men and her decision to distance herself from relationships she deems unproductive. Tems stated, “I don’t like it when guys waste my time.

But for me, never again. I don’t have that problem anymore.

I have left the streets, I wouldn’t even say I was ever on the streets.” She indicated her fatigue with men who waste her time and her disinterest in those with ulterior motives. This revelation has generated considerable online speculation among fans about her personal life, although Tems did not clarify if her statement referred to a specific relationship.

Known for her successful songs like “Try Me” and collaborations with international artists such as Wizkid and Drake, Tems has made a significant impact on the global music scene. Additionally, she recently launched the Leading Vibe Initiative to support women in Africa’s music industry.
