How I delayed my debut album because of Tems – Tyla

Grammy-winning South African singer, Tyla has recounted how she delayed submitting her debut album to her record label because of Nigerian superstar, Tems.

Speaking on MTV Live, Tyla described Tems as the “Queen” of African music.

She said she has been working on her debut album for almost three years.

“I was about to submit the album then Tems sent her verse over and I was like wait, Tems just sent a song, I mean she’s the Queen,” Tyla said.
