Tems has been on an impressive run in the last few years, ever since she assisted Wizkid on the global smash ‘Essence,’ nothing has been the same. From being featured on Drake‘s sixth studio album ‘Certified Lover Boy‘ album to earning her first No. 1 hit in the United States via Future‘s ‘Wait For U‘ which also featured Drake. Now, she’s had her solo debut on the Billboard Hot 100 with her popular song, ‘Free Mind.’
Amaarae, on the other hand, has been striving as well, she’s recording immense success in recent times which includes her debut on Billboard Hot 100 at No. 80 spot with ‘Sad Girls Luv Money‘ featuring Moliy.
