Nigerian Singer and Grammy award winner, Tems, has shared the strategy she used in avoiding producers from making advances at her.
Tems noted this during a conversation with YouTuber Korty EO, stating that she almost lost confidence in her appearance due to distractions from producers.
Tems explained that her main focus was always on making music, not on her physical appearance.
She added that her body became a hindrance to her career, so she started wearing baggy outfits to reduce attention from producers.
Tems said, “I used to not always like my body. I just didn’t understand a lot of things. I was going to a lot of studios alone, meeting people I didn’t know and had never met. I’ll message people to ask them to teach me how to produce music for people”.
“So, because of my objective which is just wanting to make music, if my being attractive is disturbing you and stopping me from achieving my goal, I am going to help you. So, when I go to the studio, I wear like baggy clothes and I’m in my alpha mode because I want you to not be seduced by me,” she added.
