Nigerian superstar musician Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has become the first Nigerian recording artiste in history to debut at number one on the Billboard Hot 100.
The 26 year old achieved this feat following her recent collaboration with U.S rappers Drake and Future on the song ‘Wait For U,’ which appears on Future’s LP album ‘I Never Liked You.’
According to Punch, the single ‘Wait for U’ debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 – Future’s second, Drake’s tenth, and Tems’ first.
While this is her first No.1, Tems had earlier debuted on the Hot 100 last year October, with her feature on Essence remix.
The hit song by Wizkid also featured Justin Bieber, and peaked at No. 9 on the charts.
