Nigerian singer Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, recently opened up on a surreal moment in her career when three global music stars Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Drake reached out to her within just three days.
The 29-year-old singer shared this experience during an interview with BigBoy TV, reflecting on her journey to international stardom.
Tems revealed that Beyoncé’s team was the first to make contact, followed by direct messages from both Rihanna and Drake.
The singer, who gained massive recognition after her hit collaboration on Wizkid’s “Essence,” described how she initially couldn’t believe what was happening.
She further added that receiving messages from Rihanna and Drake, artists she had admired for over a decade, made the experience even more special.
“I never imagine becoming this big. We did ‘Essence’ and I started getting messages. In 2020 Beyoncé team reached out and I was like God, what’s going on?,” Tems said.
“And I got DMs from people that I looked up to like Rihanna and Drake. These are people that influenced culture very much for past 10 years or more. They are very respected in the industry. In fact I got their messages within 3 days of each other.”
“It felt like it wasn’t real and I felt like I was dreaming or being pranked,” she added.
