Grammy-winning Nigerian R&B sensation Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has opened up about what she cherishes most about being a black woman.

In a recent conversation with Cocoa Butter during a visit to Atlanta, Georgia, the Love Me Jeje singer shared her thoughts on identity and self-expression.

“My favourite thing about being a black woman? I love being curvy. I love that I have a little booty, you know what I’m saying?” she said with a smile.

The Oscar-nominated artiste also spoke about her approach to fashion, citing cultural pride and individuality as key influences.

“I’m definitely into details. I’m definitely into the bling. I think Nigerians are very extravagant in everything and I’m very into that. But I always put my own spin and I’m not afraid to be who I am,” she added.

Tems continues to rise as a global icon, not only for her music but also for her unapologetic authenticity and celebration of black womanhood.
