FEATURE ARTICLE: TEMS IS OWNING HER CROWN
Tumblr media
Image: @temsbaby (instagram)
The Yoruba people of South Western Nigeria attach a culture and celebration to name-giving. A naming ceremony in Lagos, where Tems was raised, is a robust event, drinks flow, relatives flock, and it's not uncommon for one to last into the night, or perhaps trickle to the next day. To them, a name is not merely a word to which one responds, it is a mark of identity and at once a prayer, a means by which loving parents and relatives may confer good wishes to a child. Her name, Temilade, translates from Yoruba to mean "the crown is mine" and if her dizzying journey in recent past is anything to go by, then the names given to her 27 years ago - little parcels of love and prayer wrapped in words - are guiding her. She is owning her crown.
2021 was a dream year for Tems. No matter how optimistic her new year prayers were, she probably didn't envision moving from a collaboration with an Afrobeats heavyweight like Wizkid to co-starring with acts like Drake and Justin Bieber. She's seen herself make friends of those who previously were idols, receive career advise from Rihanna, and, most recently, win a historic two awards at the BET, the most ever by an African act in a single night. Her voice is her greatest asset. Massive, yet immersive it seems to fill the room in which it is played, easily transversing skin and bones to lodge in a spot she created, a place from which she emerges to rouse feelings of escape, of love, of freedom and power. Her sound is unique, and she does not blur genres as much as she simply creates her own space, into which she draws ingredients of R&B and soul, reggae and pop for a cocktail that is new, bold and exciting every time.
'Crazy Tings' are happening for her right now, but her music journey began in the most modest way. "Mr rebel", her first ever single, was a child of resolve and ingenuity. Unable to hire producers good enough to make her sound like she wanted to be heard, yet affordable enough to fit into her tiny budget as an independent act, she took to learning production herself from DIY videos on YouTube. And this, the first fruit of her determination is a breezy, mellow RnB affair In which she affirms confidence in her abilities (I’m the sound on the ground, I'm the winning sound/ I'm the crown, I'm the vibe) while searching for and desiring to take care of a mysterious "Mr Rebel". She quit a promising career in marketing to focus on music, so the wisdom of her decision hinged on the success of this first single. With it she earned a small but dedicated following. If "Mr Rebel" was the laid-back wistful longing for a special person, "Try Me", Temilade's breakout single had her sit up to take charge of her emotions as she outgrew her fears and celebrated freedom in a tune that may sound African, Western and Jamaican without firmly belonging to any category. "You wanna lock me away, I'm winning/ You wanna add to my pain, I'm shining" she asserts on the bridge, with the confidence of a voice that knows just how good it sounds.
Her ascent since this single has been a blur. Seeking to build on the attention her singles had gathered, and to provide a body of work for the satisfaction of her eager, newly-gathered fans, she released For Broken Ears in September 2020. With 7 tracks, it sits at the intersection between album and extended play, and while it's exact identity may be up in the air, there's no doubt as to the themes she intends to highlight on this debut project. "Damages", the single released first to rally support for it, sees her heal from scars and promptly end a relationship that no longer measures to her standards. It's classic Tems, her big voice towered only by her bigger attitude, and these two features remain a constant for most of the album.
On the 23rd of February, 2020, Afrobeats chieftain, Wizkid took to his Twitter account to announce "Tems and I created magic", a tweet that is now recognized in fan circles as the very first chapter in the story of essence, the smash from his Grammy nominated Made In Lagos. The track itself arrived eight months after, and it was a savory affair, Tems is transformed into the luscious sweetheart we rarely ever get to see as she trades lines of love and longing with a pleasant Wizkid, who is right at home in a song like this. Throw in delicate R&B production with traces of Caribbean and Afropop elements, and it's no wonder it was the fuel for so many evening grooves as one of the songs of the summer of 2021, proving irresistible for even Justin Bieber, who simply had to jump on it's remix. His countryman, Drake, responded to the success of this single by immediately tapping up Tems to feature on "Fountains", a track off Certified Lover Boy that was the next milestone passed in Tems' journey. It's slow-burning afropop production, breezy beachside vibes and of course, Tems powerful, sultry delivery are lines that can be drawn between the two songs.
Off the back of intercontinental success, her latest EP, If Orange Was A Place, arrived to a much larger reception than her earlier effort. And while a wider audience must be the desire of every creative, greater publicity brings with it closer scrutiny, a more critical look and mounting pressure to keep fans it took so much effort to gather. But if any of these fears plagued Tems in the production of this extended play, it definitely doesn't reflect on its quality or focus as she's been able to produce a work that is just as good as her debut. She stuck to her guns entirely, choosing to double down on all the features that brought her to limelight in the first place while her happier and more balanced mentality reflects in her songwriting.
Her most recent appearance is on Future's "I NEVER LIKED YOU". She's not given much to do here, her contribution is a sample of Higher, off her first album. But what was the most intimate spot on "For Broken Ears" is made into the foil to Future's slurry delivery and Drake's snappier lines on "Wait For You" and it's a rivetting success. The song's especially warm reception speaks to her rising star power in the stateside market, almost as much it does to the rap duo's massive pull.
The sky is the limit now for Temilade. She's established her talent and then reiterated it with successive, successful EPs, and with a feature from Wizkid and advise from Rihanna already in the bag ahead of the album that's expected to arrive this year, it is safe to assume  2022 will be an even better year for Afrobeats' new darling.

#GoodNewsMustTravelFast🗣️📖🚀🌎. THE DOMINION OF THE KINGDOM Daniel 7:22, 27 Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom. And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him. There aren't any need for analysis or perusal views on the matter of the Kingdom. The everlasting Kingdom reigns by power, authority and dominion. 1 Corinthians 4:20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. When someone has power, he does not give suggestions, he issue command. In Yoruba proverb it is rendered "Ōba Kii daba, asē l'oba pa." Meaning 'A king does nothing than but give command.' Power is one of the virtues of the Kingdom. The Church, must stay focused and redefine what he stands for and stop playing religion. I have witnessed some trend over the years about the unthinkable stand of the Church of endorsing political candidates during campaign and electioneering period. Many uncensored prophet gives predictions about who will become what and at the end this political juggernaut will tactically want to go against the Church. The Church is not a political confederacy, he is a spiritual compass to the world. Let's take our stand! I believe that the BODY OF CHRIST shall be in charge of every sphere of government before the return of JESUS. I'm sick and tired of denominational hangover of Churches, for how long are we going to rally on false represention of the Kingdom of God. The KINGDOM OF GOD, is not about nomenclature, it is about influence and unprecedented impact we have all across the street, hamlets, towns, cities and giving meaning to the lost SOULS around us. One of the sayings of Jesus that always set me up on the GO is Luke 15:7 I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth... The matter is, HOW MANY SOULS HAVE REPENTED THROUGH YOU? Are you giving JOY to HEAVEN? ARE YOU A BONAFIDE SOUL WINNER?

[ad_1] The Labour Party has condemned the statement credited to the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar that he is a stepping stone to Igbo presidency. Atiku said this in Anambra State during the presidential campaign rally of the party, during which he urged Ndigbo to vote for him as a way of realizing the Igbo presidency quest upon the completion of his tenure. However, in a statement made available to our sources on Thursday by Chief Innocent Okeke, the National Vice Chairman (South East) of the Labour Party, he described Atiku’s statement as insensitive. Okeke said, “at a time the country is on the brink of division, occasioned by nepotism and dominance of a particular region in the governance and the yearning for unity and equity is on the front burner, is when Atiku chose to insult Ndigbo right at their home front. “Asking Ndigbo to vote for an extension of Northern-Fulani-Muslim-ticket when the Igbo are yet to test the presidency since 1999 whereas the North have been in charge for ten years is mockery of the highest degree. The kleptocrats at their own game, always want to deceive their perceived targets with rhetorics laden with tricks. “Atiku is employing the old and outdated political tricks on Ndigbo. It won’t work this time round. The people are awake and tired of playing second fiddle in a country where they are a major stakeholder. With Buhari from the North completing eight years in Aso Rock next year, Atiku wouldn’t have contested for the president let alone asking votes from the South and Ndigbo particularly.” He added that if Atiku believed he was the stepping stone for Ndigbo to take their rightful place, he should not have been in the presidential race. “Funnily enough, Atiku is among those that designed the agreement of rotation in 1999, and has witnessed it go round and now the undisputable right of Ndigbo, why does he want to change the goalpost in the middle of a match? This is unacceptable. “One would recall that in respect to the principle of rotation and zoning arrangement which have been instituted, no southerner and no Igbo man opposed Atiku and Buhari both of whom are from the north. It was a battle between a Northerner and another as the South patriotically watched from the sideline. “Now it is the turn of the south and the Southeast precisely, why is Atiku contesting and at the same time coming to the East with intention to insult and mock them? “Ndigbo has contributed and still contributing to the present unity and success of Nigeria and doing everything possible to keep a united Nigeria. Agitations are up because of Nigeria’s reluctance to embrace equity. Any semblance of unity that exists is driven by Ndigbo, the only tribe that goes everywhere and builds homes. Therefore, it is insulting to tell such a people that you are their stepping stone to the presidency. “Igbo want to be president because they want to fix the Nigeria that has been damaged for over the years. They have presented one of their best whose positive record as a governor is overwhelming. “As we look forward to a new Nigeria emerging from reality and faith, no one should take these elements that have been architects of Nigeria’s problems seriously. “You can not go to Kaduna and reveal that an average northerner will not vote a president from South, and repeat that average northerner will not like to vote Igbo or Yoruba, only to come to Awka and say you are a stepping stone. Who do you want to deceive? “Atiku should be advised to withdraw from the presidential race, work on himself and purge away the old conspiracies that he and his cohorts have been using to teach their younger ones hate and disunity. This is the only practical way to be a unifier,” the LP chieftain added. [ad_2]

Options Trading - Basics Of Trading Options Explained
She bought 20 MSFT calls (well she had to get her money back, didn't she?) at a much higher strike price than the last ones and paid $1.31 for them, expecting the rally arrive the following day. If you are really focused on finding used boats for sale, our recommendation is that you join one of those sites. This is also a good option compared into the local bank auction. Although, the local auctions usually free however, you won't get as many varieties because would get online. The explanation for this will be the boats which can shown online are nationwide, so you possess unlimited involving choices.Remember that before not only do you any website a monthly charge to access their listings, you should properly advice about the company. Experts believe a lot of online companies in dangerous have designed a reputation for scamming customers. Also, they don't give any return for their cash. While newbies will prefer to play it safe finding a ready-made boat that are being used straight out of the box, others might be considered a little more adventurous, preferring to get yourself a kit for DIY fitting. The latter may seem like hard work but there's a certain satisfaction in knowing you've built your boat from scrape. Parts can also get replaced with better alternatives during construction to buy a truly unique masterpiece.
Tumblr media
The trailer able pontoon boat covers are used when an individual the vessel on a trailer. These coverings have a quick release buckle and strap system for snug fitting. A clip able boat cover has double air vents anyone bring over the scope of moisture conception. It will not flap or whip much in a windy issues. All in all, I've had some terrific fun challenging myself on a daily basis and gaining experience with and the next are things I've wahoo fish near me noticed and try out. I hope this inspires and/or benefits you. After we've got down at the port, he told me his name was "Sugarr" (a nickname, and thatrrrs what he wrote within diary). His accent revealed he was of the Igbo tribe(I am Yoruba). He inquired about where I thought i was headed, so told him Benin Community. Then he explained that boats from Idinao would arrive in Oron in twelve hours, after that would must travel helpful hours to get Aba, subsequently Benin. When the rope took me to numerous range one in the large, but aged boats who was his personal friend. The boat owner - known as "Delta"(another nickname) - wanted to let me board using the few CFA I had left as payment following pleas by Sugarr - and also after I desperately offered him my Olympus Stylus camera to take on the cash! You can't just let a boat sit your water without having to paint or varnish precise vessel. You'll then have to scrape barnacles off the hull sorts types of other actions. All this is expensive as well as needs time. When you hire a boat as an alternative to buying one the repair of the boat isn't dilemma. You should check the boat hire is actually well-maintained before set out, but value of the maintenance isn't difficulty. It merely yet one more thing that you must do not will need to bother associated with. In another case, fear can also manifest itself in unwilling to miss the boat and quickly jumping on. It can very turn out to be observed by novices who listen to tips from friends and TV, where so called "experts" or shall I rather say, "opinion makers" speak up trying to sweet-talk you into a trade.
