This marks a remarkable achievement for Wizkid and Tems, who are signed to the same label and for African music as a whole.
The song marks Wizkid’s third appearance on the charts, after ‘One Dance’ famously hit No. 1 in 2016. For Tems, this marked her first appearance, as her launch gathers heat.
.@wizkidayo‘s “Essence,” featuring @temsbaby, debuts at No. 82 on this week’s #Hot100.
It earns Tems her first career entry on the chart.
