Nigerian singer, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has said she has achieved more than her targets in the music industry.

The Love Me Jeje crooner disclosed this during a recent interactive session with fans on X.

A fan asked: “What are you currently looking forward to? Also would you say you’ve achieved all of your dreams prior to stardom?”

Tems replied: “I’m looking forward to whatever the Lord has in store and honestly I’ve achieved beyond my dreams from when I had a 9-5.”
Tems launched her music career after quitting her job as a digital marketer in January 2018. Later that year, she released her debut single, ‘Mr Rabel,’ which gained some traction in the media.

However, she rose to prominence after being featured on Wizkid’s 2020 single ‘Essence’, which peaked at number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart following the release of the remix version with Justin Bieber.

In a 2023, she became the first female Afrobeats artist to win a Grammy after her collaboration with Future and Drake, ‘Wait For U’ won the Best Melodic Rap Performance at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards.

In 2025, Tems won the Grammy Award for Best African Music Performance, becoming the only Nigerian artist with multiple Grammys.

She also earned Oscar and Golden Globe nominations for co-writting Rihanna’s ‘Lift Me Up.’
