The singer made the remark while reflecting on her personal life and experiences with men, suggesting that she has become more intentional about how she approaches relationships.
Tems said she dislikes situations where a man keeps her waiting or fails to be serious with her, but added that she no longer considers it a problem because she has moved away from that phase of her life.
She said …
“I don’t like it when guys waste my time. But for me, never again. I don’t have that problem anymore. I’ve left the streets; I wouldn’t even say I was ever on the streets.”
Her statement has generated reactions from fans, particularly her description of having “left the streets” while immediately adding that she would not even describe herself as having been on the streets in the first place.
