Tems has achieved a remarkable milestone by becoming the first Nigerian female artist in history to surpass 1 billion solo streams on Spotify.
This accomplishment solidifies her position as one of the leading figures in the global music scene and highlights the growing influence of Afrobeats and African artists on the world stage.
With over 18 tracks, Tems cracks open her journal through those career highs, and reveals how the person behind them grappled with it all.
It’s all brought to life through Tems’ usual brand of honest, mature storytelling—and here, as ever, the centrepiece remains a distinctive voice that simultaneously balances multiple layers of raw, delicate emotion and a natural, unforced ease.
