Nigerian international sensation Tems is a big fan of American rapper Lil Wayne.
In a recent interview on The Cruz Show, Tems talked about her love for rap music while sharing how she used to pretend to be Lil Wayne.
According to Tems, her love for hip-hop started at a young age when she was introduced to rap 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 shared on the podcast while highlighting ‘Mrs. Officer’, ‘Mr. Carter’, ‘Comfortable’, and ‘Hustle Music’ as some of her favourite Lil Wayne records.
When asked if she has a rap voice, the Oscar-nominated singer shared that she does although she was reluctant to show.
“It is a little cringy,” she jokingly said about trying to cosplay a rapper.
Tems further shared that she is yet to meet Lil Wayne but she’s eager to meet the New Orleans rapper and she hopes it happens soon.
Tems’ love for hip hop is evident in her debut album ‘Born In The Wild’ where she crafted a rap record ‘T Unit’ she also featured Grammy-winning American rapper J Cole on ‘Free Fall’.
Tems has collaborated with several rappers including Future on the Grammy-winning single ‘Wait For U’ featuring Drake who also recruited her for ‘Fountain’ off his album ‘Certified Lover Boy’.

JulieWhat type of greed – What type of greed…
What type of greed – Nigerian skitmaker and activist…
Nigerian skitmaker and activist Mr Macaroni has once again taken to social media to voice his frustrations over the state of governance in Nigeria, calling out politicians for their greed and lack of accountability.
Taking to X on December 3, 2024, the activist lamented the persistent looting of public funds and the detrimental effects it has on the country’s development.
He wrote, “Nigerian Politicians have stolen and are still stealing billions and trillions from the Nation’s purse. Unfortunate enough as it is that there are Zero Consequences for these actions, it is torturous that the people whose treasury are being looted continue to defend Politicians who absolutely do not care about their existence.”

Mr Macaroni expressed his sheer disbelief at the scale of corruption among Nigerian politicians, highlighting how the stolen funds could have been used to change the lives of Nigerians.
“How can you comfortably loot public funds enough to change the standard of living of millions of the people you ought to serve selflessly? What type of greed and wickedness is this?” he asked.
In another post, he wrote, “How exactly is the Country supposed to get better when our Politicians just want to steal!!! No integrity!!! No sense of purpose!! No accountability!!! Zero shame!!! Just hardened criminals in office!!! How did the people become so hopeless?”

This is not the first or second time Mr Macaroni has voiced out against Nigerian politicians and their treatment of the people. Recently, on October 29, 2024, Mr Macaroni reacted to the viral video of Former Rivers State govenor NyesomWike addressing citizens and expressed his anger concerning the way public officials treat their citizens.
Outraged, he wrote, “Nigerian politicians lack regard for Nigerians, and this is because they have never been accountable to the people. The other day the FCT Minister was addressing some Nigerians and he said; “are you stupid, is it because I came down to talk to you” You are a civil servant!!! What do you mean by “is it because I came down to talk to you” You are talking to the people that pay your salary!!!”

Songs from Rema and Tems make RollingStones Top Songs of 2024

Songs from Rema and – Nigerian international sensation Tems…
Nigerian international sensation Tems and Rema continue to shine on the global stage.
On November 2, 2024, RollingStone released a list of their top 100 song pick for 2024 with Afrobeats making an appearance.
Tems‘ ‘Love Me Jeje’ was ranked NO. 20 on the list. The song which is one of the lead singles off her Grammy-nominated debut album ‘Born In The Wild’ samples the classic record of the same name by Seyi Sodimu & Shaffy Bello.
RollingStone describes the song as a yearning to be playful and unburdened by any sensibilities.
“On the sun-kissed ‘Love Me JeJe,’ Tems’ voice reminds us that yearning should be playful and unburdened by any insecurities or apprehensions. Interpolating
Seyi Sodimu’s ’90s Nigerian pop hit of the same name, Tems “Love Me Jeje” builds on the recent trend of artists collapsing elements of R&B and Afrobeat. Producers GuiltyBeatz and Spax sound more focused on rhythm than melody, using even the guitars as conduits for Tems to lightly slip and slide between pockets. That candid moment near the end, where Tems giggles with a friend, encapsulates the song’s essence. Her demands for love are lighthearted and unbothered.”
Rema’s ‘Ozeba’ off his Grammy-nominated sophomore album ‘HEIS’ is ranked at NO. 63. The song which is one of the most popular from the album echoes Rema’s uptempo rage music with which he aims to reclaim Afrobeats’ dancefloor.
RollingStone tags the song that packs goads and taunts over pulsating drumroll.
“After making his name with the lush and lovey-dovey sensibilities of Afrobeats, Rema is far more sinister, menacing, and intense across his sophomore effort, HEIS. Gone are the flowery epics about pursuing a tryst; instead, prepare for some good ol’ fashioned shit-talking, especially on ‘Ozeba.’ On the album’s centerpiece, Rema unloads a barrage of goads and taunts over a pulsating roll of drums that will raise your heart rate faster than a merciless round of HIIT. Time to cause some trouble.”
Tems and Rema‘s inclusion on the list is a reflection of their international superstar status where they have taken up leading roles in the global exportation of Nigerian music.

Nigerian singer Timaya has opened up about his reasons for not getting married, highlighting how much harder it is to get out of a marriage than a relationship.
During his recent interview on NAIJA FM, the singer revealed his longstanding hesitance toward the institution of marriage and also spoke on his approach to fathering his four children.
When asked about marriage, Timaya said, “I’ve never been a marriage guy right from time but it can change, because marriage dey crase? I just look at it like if I marry today, would I be able to get out? In all my previous relationships, I was the one who got out because I don’t like stress.”
"I have four kids. Being a father is enjoyable."

The Dem Mama singer stated that open communication is key for him in relationships because he does not like to keep things to heart.
He explained, “If you have a problem with me , let’s talk about it because I don’t like going to bed thinking about things , I go die o. I don’t like anything to bother me at all.”
On fatherhood, the singer disclosed that his children live with their respective mothers, but they maintain a close bond.
He explained, “Being a father is stressful because I love them too much but it’s enjoyable. My four kids live with their mothers so when I want to see them, I ask their mothers and they come to my house and we spend two to three months together then they go back to their mother’s. Christmas is coming and they’d spend it with me as well, but their mothers don’t come because they’re in relationships. We’re all family now so I can’t date any of them, we’re family now and we respect each other”
