Tems beats Rihanna, Beyoncé to new music chart record in US

Temilade Openiyi, better known by her stage name Temz, is a Grammy-winning Nigerian singer who recently broke a record on the Billboard list.

The Nigerian accomplished the extraordinary accomplishment after her single “Free Mind” shattered the mark for the longest-running number-one position held by a female artist in the history of the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart.

This week, the song remained at the top of the charts, extending its peak run to a record-breaking 17 weeks for a female artist.

Tems became the first Nigerian female singer to emerge as a leader on the chart when the song made its debut on the main Billboard Hot 100 list last year.

Millions of plays of the song “Free Mind,” which is off Tems’ debut Extended Play (EP), have been recorded in the US on the biggest digital streaming services.
