Nigerian singer, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has revealed the profession she would have been in if she weren’t in the music industry.
During an interactive session with fans on X on Tuesday, Tems disclosed that she would have been an accountant or a mathematics teacher if she weren’t a musician.
“If music didn’t work, what else do you think you would be doing today?” a fan asked.
Tems responded, “I might have been an accountant or a mathematics teacher.”
The multiple Grammy-winning singer has previously revealed that she quit her job as a digital marketer in January 2018 to focus on her music career.
She released her debut single ‘Mr Rabel’ in July 2018. The song gained some traction in Nigeria. However, she rose to prominence after being featured on Wizkid’s 2020 single ‘Essence’, which peaked at number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart following the release of the remix version with Justin Bieber.
