Tems Overtakes Tyla To Become The Most-Streamed African Artist On Spotify
Nigerian singer Temilade Openiyi, better known by her stage name Tems, has overtaken South African artist Tyla to claim the title of the most-listened-to African artist on Spotify, topping the chart for highest monthly listeners on the platform.
The Love Me Jeje crooner recently hit 38.3 million listeners on the platform, surpassing Tyla with 38.2 million listeners.
Tems’ leap was due to new releases and features including ‘What You Need’ (Colour version), and ‘Bounce Road Blues’ with J.Cole and Future as well as her collaborative hit with Dave, ‘Raindance,’ which is still making waves.
She is also poised to break and even surpass the all-time highest monthly listeners by an African artist set by Tyla at 40 million listeners.
Tems remains the most-streamed female African artist on the platform with 4.7 billion streams across all credits.
