Nigerian rapper and singer Vector tha Viper is reportedly featuring fellow rapper M.I Abaga, who he had beef with in 2019, in his upcoming album, T.E.S.L.I.M.
According to Vector at a press conference in Lagos, his album title T.E.S.L.I.M represents The Energy Still Lives in Me.
“T.E.S.L.I.M means peacemaker. Looking at our society today, there seems to be so much negativity flying around. Let’s spread happiness, the consciousness of who we are,” the rapper said.
While Vector noted that T.E.S.L.I.M aims to inspire the youth, he frowned at the “negativity in our society, most especially among the younger generation.”

The inspiration behind T.E.S.L.I.M, he says, popped up while he was preparing for his father’s funeral. “I had just released the Lafiaji album and when we were gearing up to make the album, my father died. That energy just sank the idea.”
While mourning his loss, Vector recalled how he got lost in his own thoughts while staring at his father’s body. “Then it dawned on me, Teslim, you are gone but your energy still remains’.
The rapper assured music lovers that the T.E.S.L.I.M album will be released on G.R.A.P record label. Vector tha Viper hoped it will set a good example to others on his friendship with M.I Abaga.
