In a recent interview, the award-winning singer and vocalist questioned why Tems, whose impact and achievements in Afrobeats have been undeniable, is often left out of the discussion.

“It’s unfair to have that conversation about the Big 3 and not mention someone like Tems,” Tiwa Savage said firmly.

The “Big 3” label has been a hot topic among fans and industry veterans alike, with passionate endorsements often favoring Davido, Wizkid, and Burna Boy.

However, Tiwa’s bold stance highlights the evolving landscape of Afrobeats and the need to recognize emerging talents who are reshaping the genre.

Tems has recently made waves both locally and internationally with her unique voice and collaborations, earning critical acclaim and a growing fan base.

Tiwa’s call for her inclusion reflects a broader movement pushing for fair acknowledgment of diverse contributions to Nigerian music.
