Nigerian music sensation Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has once again captured hearts—not just with her Grammy win but also with her touching tribute to her mother.

Speaking in an interview with ET at the 67th annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday, Tems revealed the depth of her relationship with her mom, stating that they share everything.

"What I have is hers. We share everything I have," she said, highlighting the unbreakable bond between them.

Tems, who was raised by her mother as a single parent, has never shied away from acknowledging the role she played in shaping her life. And in a powerful moment of gratitude, the singer dedicated her Grammy award to the woman who stood by her through thick and thin.

A Grammy Win That Hits Different

Tems’ "Love Me Jeje" won the Best African Music Performance award at the 2025 Grammys, making her a proud flagbearer of Afrobeats on the global stage.

Expressing her gratitude, she said:

"I’m grateful to God. I’m thankful. I think it’s a blessing. I’m extremely blessed and favored. I just want to give that out in any way that I can."

Her win not only celebrates her artistry and talent but also cements her status as one of Africa’s most influential musicians.

A Story of Resilience and Love

Beyond the glamour and accolades, Tems’ journey is a story of resilience, love, and the power of family. Growing up in Nigeria with her brother, she was singlehandedly raised by her mother—a reality many can relate to.

Her success is a testament to the sacrifices of countless Nigerian mothers, who pour everything into their children despite life’s challenges. Tems' decision to share her Grammy win with her mother is more than just a heartfelt gesture—it is a symbol of appreciation for all the unsung heroes raising future stars.
