Temple: The meta-voice
My name is Temple and I was born and raised in Nigeria, but am currently based in Towson, Maryland USA.
My love for music began with poetry. Since I was young enough to recite nursery rhymes, my fascination with the subject only grew, and when I turned 8, it had grown to an extent that I myself became a self-proclaimed poet. Between hearing my first-ever rap song (Rap god by Eminem) when I was 9, adding rhythm to my earliest poems when I turned 10, and writing my own music now, I can conveniently confirm the fact that my love for this art stems from the wordplay I have had the pleasure of experiencing over my lifetime. Creativity from artists like Eminem and Lil Wayne in my earlier stages, and more recently J. Cole, Santan Dave, Dutchavelli, and Bugzy Malone have been great influences on my pen game.
