One of Nigeria’s biggest female exploits at the moment, R&B singer-songwriter Temilade Openiyi, more popularly by her stage name “Tems”, was on the Apple Music 1 with LootLove via FaceTime to talk about her latest track “Crazy Tings”, her new EP and what it was like working with Canadian international singer “Drake”. She even revealed her surprising new fan, on her staying humble despite all of the success coming to her at the moment and her numerous career highlights. 
On her working with Drake and how the experience has been Tems said;
Honestly, it’s unbelievable, literally. When I said I wanted to work with Drake, I just said it. I wasn’t thinking about it. I used to listen to Drake all the time when I was in high school and growing up and it was just the first thing that came to my mind. And for me to actually meet him, work with him, it’s just crazy.
It’s crazy and that’s a full testament to God’s blessings, honestly. I can’t quantify how grateful I am, because it’s not anything I did, I’m just making music. And it just seems like I’m attracting all these people and I’m just so grateful honestly.

Tems also revealed why she named her new EP “If Orange was a Place”
First of all, orange is my favourite fruit. And if you find a very sweet orange and you really dig into it, it’s just busting with brightness and like colours and this warmth and it’s just a blast of excitement and the word “orange” reminds me of sunset and sunrise, sunset to sunrise, dusk to dawn. And the EP is really the different shades of orange. And it’s really the different shades of me.

Tems also revealed her favourite track of the new EP
I think my favourite might be “Vibe Out.” Because when I listened to it, I’m singing it in such a way that I never have before. And it’s like a ginger. It just makes you want to get up and go. It’s like a get ready song. Yeah. I love it. It takes you into another place. It’s like how sunset feels. It’s like the perfect song when the sun is setting and yeah, it’s vibes.
