Nigerian singer-songwriter and record producer Tems has released one studio album, two extended plays (EPs), one soundtrack album (alongside Rihanna) , and 15 singles (3 of which as a featured artist). In 2020, Tems released her debut EP For Broken Ears, which contained the single "Damages" and later "Free Mind" which impacted US contemporary radio as a single in 2022, it debuted on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 46 and breaking the female record for longest charting number one song on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart. In 2021, Tems was featured on the Wizkid's single "Essence". It spawned a remix with Justin Bieber and became the first Nigerian song to chart on Billboard's Hot 100 of which it peaked at number 9 and Global 200 chart. Essence was certified four-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). In the same year, Tems released her second EP If Orange Was a Place, after signing with RCA Records.

In 2022, Tems' vocals from her song "Higher" were sampled by Future on his single, "Wait for U", which led to her being credited as a featured artist alongside Drake on the song. It debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100, making her the first African artist to debut at number one and the second Nigerian artist to top the chart. The song received a 3X platinum certification in the United States and also a platinum certification in the United Kingdom.

In 2023, Tems released the single "Me & U", her first solo single since her second EP, If Orange Was a Place. "Me & U" peaked at number 1 on the UK Afrobeats Singles Chart and number 34 on the UK Singles Chart while in the United States, it reached number 10 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart.

In June 2024, Tems released her debut 18-track album Born in the Wild.
