Popular Nigerian singer Tems becomes first African female artiste with seven entries on Billboard Hot 100

•Tems

Award-winning singer Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has achieved a historic milestone, becoming the first African female artist to have seven entries on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Her song “What You Need” debuted at 93, tying her with Burna Boy and South African group Seether for the most Billboard Hot 100 entries among African artists.

Tems’ achievement is particularly notable given her recent success.

In 2022, she made history as the first African artist to debut at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with her collaborative hit “Wait for U,” featuring Future and Drake.

J. Cole’s “Bunce Road Blues” featuring Tems and Future, is set to debut on the Billboard Hot 100 chart next week.
