- Tems shared her love for rap music in an interview on The Cruz Show, mentioning her past emulation of Lil Wayne.
- Tems’ love for hip-hop began at a young age when her older brother introduced her to rap.
In a recent interview on The Cruz Show, Tems expressed her passion for rap music, recounting how she used to emulate Lil Wayne.
She revealed that her appreciation for hip-hop began in her childhood, largely influenced by her older brother.
“My brother is the one that introduced by to rap because he used to listen to a lot of rap music…That’s how I got the influences,” she said.
“I used to pretend to be Lil Wayne when I was younger,” Tems discussed on the podcast, emphasizing ‘Mrs. Officer’, ‘Mr. Carter’, ‘Comfortable’, and ‘Hustle Music’ as a few of her preferred tracks by Lil Wayne.
When questioned about her ability to rap, the Oscar-nominated singer acknowledged that she possesses a rap voice, albeit with some hesitation to demonstrate it.

Her dedication to hip-hop is prominently featured in her debut album ‘Born In The Wild’, which includes the rap track ‘T Unit’ and a collaboration with Grammy-winning rapper J. Cole on ‘Free Fall’.
Tems has worked with various rappers, including Future on the Grammy-winning single ‘Wait For U’, and she was also featured by Drake on ‘Fountain’ from his album ‘Certified Lover Boy’.
