Nigerian singer, Tems has made history as the first African artiste to debut at No.1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with her feature on “Wait For U” by Future alongside Drake.
“Wait For U” is a single from Future’s new album “I Never Liked You”, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart after its release on May 5.
