Inspired by Tems’s own journey in this industry, the Leading Vibe Initiative aims to empower the next generation of female artists, producers, songwriters, and music professionals, increasing representation within all areas of music across the continent and beyond. With Hennessy as a lead partner, this ambitious programme kicks off with an immersive event in Lagos—Tems’s hometown—featuring curated workshops, networking moments and panel discussions, led by top-tier talent from across the global and African music industries.

With the Lagos launch as a powerful first step, the Leading Vibe Initiative will expand across Africa and globally - creating a cross-continental network of empowered women ready to shape the future of African music. It’s a wave built for women by women, from the continent to the world.
