“Love Me JeJe,” the first single off Tems’ highly anticipated debut studio album, Born In The Wild, has already garnered over 5.8 million streams worldwide since its release just last week.
The video, self directed by Tems, pays homage to her childhood and upbringing in Lagos, Nigeria.

Ahead of her debut album release, Tems released 2 new songs “Me & U” and “Not An Angel,” notably marking her first full-length releases since her ‘If Orange Was A Place’ EP in 2021.
