Nigerian music star David Adeleke, popularly called Davido, has penned congratulatory messages to his colleagues Temilade Openiyi, aka Tems, and Chris Brown over their wins at the 67th Grammy Award on Sunday, February 2.
OSG recalls reporting that Tems won the Grammys’ Best African Music Performance award, which she dedicated to God and her mother.
The Love Me Jeje crooner beat the likes of Yemi Alade’s Tomorrow, Asake’s MMS, Chris Brown’s Sensational feat Davido and Lojay, and Burna Boy’s Higher to win the award.
While Chris Brown lost the Best African Music Performance to Tems, he won the Best R&B Album for his ’11:11′ album.
Davido congratulates Tems, Chris Brown
In a message via his social media timeline, the DMW label boss, despite his loss, celebrated Tems and Chris Brown.
“Congratulations to my one and only 🐐 ! @chrisbrown ! And to the Queen temsbaby we are proud of you,” he wrote.

Recall that Davido and his fans had high hopes of him bagging his first Grammy Award after he earned nominations for Best African Music Performance, Best Global Music Performance, and Best Global Album Performance in 2024.
The DMW label boss, however, failed to win any of his three nominations. He lost the Best African Music category to Tyla, Best Global Music Performance to Béla Fleck, Edgar Meyer & Zakir Hussain Featuring Rakesh Chaurasia, and Best Global Album to Shakti.
