She expressed her deep love for hip-hop, stating, "Hip-hop is my thing. I used to pretend to be a rapper. I love Lil Wayne as well. I used to pretend to be Lil Wayne when I was younger."
Tems shared that her journey into rap music was hugely influenced by her older brother, who introduced her to the genre. She fondly recalled some of her favorite Lil Wayne tracks, including "Mrs. Officer," "Mr. Carter," "Comfortable," and "Hustle Music."
