Tems launches new Apple Music 1 show Leading Vibe Radio
Nigerian star Tems has announced Leading Vibe Radio, a biweekly Apple Music 1 radio series that launches this weekend.
According to Tems, Leading Vibe Radio on Apple Music 1 "is really aimed at talking about real things, shining a light on women, artists and creatives that are finding their way, finding their voice and talking about how to be good soil — something that greatness can grow out of."
Tems added, "Africa is the source, so pay attention. There are many leading vibes and it’s about all of us collectively coming together to lead the vibe — that’s Africa to the world."
The first episode of Tems' Leading Vibe Radio is launching on Saturday (2 April), and new episodes will air every other Saturday. She'll be joined by her co-hosts Muyiwa Awoniyi (Tems' manager) and her older brother Tunji Paul.
She also spoke about the radio show title, which is lifted from a lyric in her song "Mr. Rebel", "I don't know why or how that phrase came into my song. Afterwards I realised that it came for a reason, and Leading Vibe is really what it says: leading the vibe and creating opportunities for people, creating an alternative, and helping people navigate life. It’s helping people to become leaders, helping people to find their own voice, their own sound, their own thing—and to get the best of life."
