Nigerian music star Temilade Openiyi, widely known as Tems, has etched her name in history as the first female African artist to sell over 10 million units of a single in the United States. Tems now joins the elite ranks of African artists to reach this landmark, following in the footsteps of Wizkid, who achieved the feat with his appearance on Drake’s global smash hit “One Dance.”With this latest achievement, the Love Me Jeje crooner cements her position as the highest-selling female African artist in U.S. music history.
