6 Sneakers Tems Is Loving Right Now!

Nigerian music sensation Tems recently gave us an exclusive look into her favourite sneakers at the Kick Game store in Covent Garden, London. Hosted by Craig Mitch, the episode wasn't just about sneakers—Tems also opened up about her highly acclaimed debut album, Born In The Wild.

She shared that she recorded 30 songs for the project, but only a select few made it to the final cut. During the session, she talked about why she chose to feature just two musicians on the record and reflected on whether she consciously creates hit songs or if they naturally evolve into fan favourites.

Tems emphasized that her music speaks to life's bigger themes, far beyond romantic relationships, which mirrors her unique, thoughtful style—both musically and fashion-wise.
