The singer is the only Nigerian artiste who would be recognised at the ceremony.

Born Temilade Openiyi, Tems gained global recognition in 2020, courtesy of her collaboration with Wizkid on the song ‘Essence’.

She has since established a name for herself in the Nigerian music industry, earning several awards and accolades.

In February 2023, the songstress won her first-ever Grammy award.

She bagged the ‘Best Melodic Rap Performance’ category for her role in ‘Wait for U’, the 2022 hit song by Future featuring Drake.

Tems had previously revealed that she started making music because “I did not have friends”.

She said music is her way of expressing her mind and connecting with people.
