Nigerian singer Tems has added another prestigious accolade to her career, securing her second Grammy Award in the Best African Music Performance category for her hit song Love Me Jeje.
The achievement marks a significant milestone for both the artist and Nigeria’s growing influence in global music.
This recognition follows her previous Grammy win for her contribution to Future’s chart-topping single Wait For U.
The newly introduced category, which debuted last year, saw stiff competition from other Nigerian artists, including Yemi Alade’s Tomorrow, Asake’s MMS, Chris Brown’s Sensational featuring Davido and Lojay, and Burna Boy’s Higher.
However, Tems emerged victorious, reinforcing her status as one of the most talented artists on the African music scene.
This year’s nominations were entirely dominated by Nigerian artists, further emphasizing the country’s stronghold in the global Afrobeat movement.
Meanwhile, excitement and congratulations have poured in from fans and fellow musicians, including Davido and Ayra Starr, who have publicly celebrated Tems’ achievement.
The win is seen as not just a personal triumph but also a proud moment for Nigeria’s music industry.
As the Best African Music Performance category continues to spotlight exceptional African talent, Tems’ victory adds to the growing recognition of Afrobeat on the global stage.
However, with this latest Grammy win, Tems solidifies her place among Africa’s most celebrated musicians.
As fans and industry professionals applaud her well-deserved success, many anticipate what’s next for the singer as she continues to make waves internationally.
