Nigerian singer Tems has reportedly reached a new milestone on Spotify, emerging as the most-streamed African artist on the platform with over 40 million monthly listeners.
The Grammy-winning star is said to have surpassed 40.1 million listeners, placing her ahead of other African acts on the global streaming service.
Her achievement follows a steady rise fueled by a mix of hit collaborations and successful solo releases that have resonated with audiences worldwide.
Tems first gained widespread international attention after featuring on Essence by Wizkid. Since then, she has collaborated with global stars like Drake and Future, further expanding her reach.
She also contributed to the soundtrack of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, a movie that significantly boosted her international profile.
In addition, Tems earned a Grammy Award for her contribution to Future’s hit track “Wait for U” and has continued to receive global recognition through multiple nominations.
The latest feat underscores the increasing global impact of African music, particularly Afrobeats, on major streaming platforms.
