Grammy Award winner Tems invited industry insiders to a private listening session so they could be among the first set of people to hear her upcoming first album.

On April 1, 2024, Temilade Openiyi, better known by her stage name Tems, threw a private listening party to give fans a sneak peek at her eagerly awaited debut album. She has stated in several interviews that the album is complete, however she has not yet disclosed the album’s track listing, release date, or cover art.
