'I Feel Like This Is Just The Beginning' - Tems Speaks After Grammy Award Win

Nigerian singer, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has addressed fans attempting to make her fit into their box of expectations about the Christianity lifestyle.

Naija News reports that the singer set the record straight in a post shared on Twitter, stating she would not uphold anyone’s belief about God because she is not a Christian saviour.

Tems recalled how she started her music career in 2018 and has experienced so much growth in the music industry.

According to the singer, she has worked so much for herself but rarely brags about it because she is not playing the same game.

She tweeted: “I don’t know who needs to hear this but I am not your Christian saviour. I didn’t come here to uphold your beliefs about God. I will not fit into this box you try to put me in. I won’t satisfy you in that area please find the person that will. Or ask yourself why you care.

“So much growth this year. I’m here for my fans. I have worked so much on myself. It will all make sense when it happens. I started in 2018. Look at what music looks like today. Still Next level coming. I’m just about to start.

“I don’t brag because I’m not playing the same game. I don’t need to brag, I am who I am whether you know it or not. It is the house that is built on the solid rock that will withstand the storm. I’m trying to impress myself not you.”
