Tems and American producer, ATL Jacob involved in an online scuffle.
Nigerian artist Tems, typically known for maintaining a low-key presence, recently found herself embroiled in a public dispute with renowned American producer ATL Jacob, along with her manager Muyiwa Awoniyi.
This unexpected online argument raised eyebrows, given Tems‘ previous reputation for avoiding controversies.
Taking to social media (X) on Thursday, January 18, 2024, Tems, who had previously opened up about being bullied for her voice, accused ATL Jacob of spreading falsehoods.
She claimed that he wrongly stated that she refused to clear her original song, ‘Higher,’ which played a role in their Grammy-winning track, ‘Wait for You.’ Furthermore, she alleged that ATL Jacob lied about Drake initiating the clearance call and implied that she didn’t need to thank him for their Grammy victory.
Backing up Tems‘ claims, her manager, Muyiwa Awoniyi, affirmed that the producer’s statements were fabrications and suggested that those around ATL Jacob should check his credibility, hinting at a potential inclination for dishonesty.
In his defense, ATL Jacob challenged Tems and her manager to provide evidence of when he spoke negatively about her for a wire check. Tems countered by promising to double the money if he stopped making untrue statements about her.
It’s crucial to note that ATL Jacob played a pivotal role as the producer for Tems‘ Grammy-winning song, which featured renowned American artists Drake and Future. The dispute has stirred interest within the music industry, shedding light on unexpected conflicts behind the scenes.
