Producer and singer Tems is working ahead of herself as she gets ready to announce a new album sometime this year.

She has been holding a private listening session for the new album in Lagos, Nigeria. Posting snippets of the gathering recently, she thanked fans and well-wishers who continue to support her project.

It is not clear, which month this year the fresh sounds will drop, but following her impressive track record throughout the years, fans can only expect a well-rated compilation of soothing rhythms.

Tems was recently on the list of award recipients at the NAACP Image Awards, held last month in the United States. The award is organised by the U.S-based National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People which honours outstanding performances in film, television, music, theatre, and literature.

It was the second trophy in March for the Me and U singer, who has previously grabbed the ‘Breakthrough’ award at the 2024 Billboard Women in Music Awards.

Tems became the first Nigerian artist to be honoured at the Billboard Women in Music event, which celebrates outstanding women who continue to inspire generations in the industry.

In addition to her well-performing records, she has been celebrated for attaining over two billion streams on Spotify, and becoming the most streamed female African artiste on the platform.

The outstanding talent in music, who is using music as an “outlet to express her thoughts,” could certainly compile potential award-winning songs as the untitled new album is finalised.

When she mounted the stage last month to pick her Billboard Women’s Award, she advised women to support one another in all circumstances, stressing that:

“No matter what you’re going through, you should know you are not alone. Even when you’re sad, or angry; there is someone who is angry too…so uplift everyone around you.”
