Following a revealing interview with rapper Kendrick Lamar, singer Tems has responded to fabricated rumors that she criticized Nigerian music for its simplicity and lack of depth.

Tems was quick to address false reports that circulated about his recent interview where she was misquoted as describing Nigerian music as "plain and simple". She vehemently denied making such statements and emphasized his deep appreciation for the richness and complexity of Nigerian music and its cultural significance.

In a post on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, in the comments section of the fake reports, Tems replied that she never said such a thing and it was simply embarrassing and disgusting to insinuate such media.

In her interview with Kendrick Lamar, Tems talked about so many things, like how she got into music, why she started producing his songs, and how she struggles with her art as an artist. It was an insightful and thought-provoking interview that gave a better picture of her as a person and an artiste.
