During her performance at the 2024 Coachella Festival, singer Temilade Openiyi, otherwise called on stage as Tems stood out as truly newsworthy by surprisingly inviting on stage Justin Bieber And Wizkid to play out the tune ‘Essence’ at the event in California.
Tems and Justin Bieber showed up on the remix rendition of the tune ‘Essence’ which was released back in 2020.
Tems featured on Wizkid’s 2020 single Essence, which peaked at number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart following the release of the remix version with Justin Bieber.
She performed a set at this year’s Coachella festival on Sunday night (April 14). But before these top acts joined her onstage, Tems had composed on X:
“Coachella! I’m too excited. I have a surprise tonight,”.
A few fans responded to her post and were similarly excited too. On the night the three artists gave an astounding show-stopper with the tune.
Released in 2020, ‘Essence’ was recorded with Bieber and fellow Afrobeats star Wizkid. The success of the song wasn’t an overnight one but rather rose to the charts only nine months after its release.
The track also went on and cracked the Billboard Hot 100, and entered the list of top 10 (peaking at No. 9), becoming the first Afrobeats song to do so. Moreover, the track also secured a Grammy nomination. That’s not all.
Tems also appeared on Canadian rapper and singer Drake’s song, ‘Fountains’, from the latter’s sixth studio album– ‘Certified Lover Boy’, which debuted at number 26 on the Hot 100.
Throughout her career, Tems has gathered several awards in her kitty, including a Grammy Award, a Billboard Women in Music Award, four NAACP Image Awards, three BET Awards and three Soul Train Music Awards.
Bieber’s performance at Coachella has ignited some frenzy into the fans, and renewed hope for more live dates in the wake of his health problems. In June 2022, he publicly shared his diagnosis of Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which contributed to the cancelation of his 2022 Justice World Tour.
