Nigerian Singer Temilade Openiyi known Popularly as Tems

Popular Nigerian Songstress, Tems has her biggest listening day on Spotify after releasing her debut album 'Born In The Wild' on June 7, 2024.

Tems' debut album received 5.33 million global streams on its first day, trailing just Ayra Starr's 6.3 million for her newly released sophomore album 'The Year I Turned 21'.

After attaining international popularity in 2021 with her stunning contributions to Wizkid's global song 'Essence', the singer has become one of the world's fastest-rising artists.

Her highly awaited first album, 'Born In The Wild,' features 18 tracks and two collaborations with Nigerian singer Asake and American rapper J Cole.

She released two songs ahead of the album release, 'Me & U' and 'Love Me Jeje', which have had over 99 million and 32 million streams, respectively. The popularity of the lead singles demonstrates her superstar status, and her debut album is poised to be a commercial success.

Tems holds various achievements in the Nigerian music business, including being the first Nigerian female artist to win a Grammy Award in 2022 for Best Melodic Rap Performance on Future's 'Wait For U', which features her and Drake.

She is also the first Nigerian musician to receive an Oscar nomination for her work on the soundtrack for Marvel's 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever'.
