Background

edit

In a tweet in 2022, Tems announced that her debut studio album was scheduled for release in 2023. The album was delayed for unknown reasons with Tems teasing the album and instead releasing two singles "Me & U" and "Not an Angel", which marked her first solo music output since 2021 excluding her cover of Bob Marley's "No Woman, No Cry" for the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack.[8][9] In March 2024, Tems told Billboard magazine that the album has been completed and that it would released in 2024.[10][11] In April, Tems announced the release date alongside the world tour spanning four continents, with venues for Africa and Asia yet to be announced.[12]
