Tems has won the second-ever Grammy award for Best African Music Performance. The Nigerian singer picked up the award for her sunny hit song, “Love Me Jeje,” which samples the iconic 1997 single of the same title by Nigerian pop forebearer Seyi Sodimu.
“Dear God, thank you so much for putting me on this stage,” the singer remarked with palpable gratitude, also appreciating her managers and team. Also on the stage was Tems’ mom, who received a hearty shout-out.
