In 2021, Tems captivated audiences with her cover of John Legend’s classic “Ordinary People.” Yesterday, she took that connection to a whole new level at New York’s Radio City Music Hall by inviting John Legend himself on stage for a heartfelt duet of the song—a moment that deeply resonated with her fans.
Currently on her “Born In The Wild” tour across America, Tems made her New York stop an unforgettable experience with a series of electrifying surprises. Alongside her duet with Legend, a standout highlight was when she welcomed Nigerian star Ayra Starr to the stage, thrilling the audience with a performance of her hit song “Rush.”
