Nigerian singer Tems recently shared how, in just three days, she was contacted by three global music icons: Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Drake.
In an interview with BigBoy TV, the 29-year-old discussed her rise to fame, mentioning that it all began after the success of “Essence.” She recalled, “In 2020, Beyoncé’s team reached out, and I was in disbelief, thinking, ‘God, what’s happening?’”
Soon after, Tems received direct messages from Rihanna and Drake—artists she deeply admired. “These are people who’ve shaped culture for over a decade and are hugely respected in the industry. I got their messages within just three days of each other,” she said. “It felt unreal, like I was dreaming or being pranked.”
