Tems showed up at Genius to walk through Big Daddy from her Love Is a Kingdom EP, and she got real about what drives the track. She talked about how the song comes from a place of being solid in who you are without needing to fake anything for outside validation, and she said she likes making stuff that gets her moving on multiple levels.
The artist broke down how the lyrics separate actual drive from just putting on a show, which threads through the whole thing quietly. She explained that confidence hits different when it stems from internal clarity instead of chasing approval from random people.
Hearing her unpack each verse made the song land harder because you can tell she meant every word when she recorded it. The breakdown gives you way more context if you already vibe with the track, and it works as a solid entry point for anyone just getting into the EP.
