This fantastic news comes at the back of previous achievements and milestones she has been able to accomplish. Recall that, She is the first female artist from Nigeria to win a BET award and the first artist from Nigeria to win two BET awards in one night. When she won the Best Melodic Rap Performance Grammy at the 2022 Grammys for her contribution to Future’s song “Wait for U,” she also made history as the first female Afrobeats artist to do so. Tems is also the first Nigerian artist nominated for an Oscar for her work on the song “Lift Me Up,” featured on the soundtrack movie “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.”
As the record-breaker pushes her sound to new places while helping in bringing positive attention to Afrobeat, netizens and music fans alike have reacted and continued to praise and applaud her endeavors.
