Kudos, Anger As Waje Begs Tems For Collaboration

Veteran Nigerian singer Aituaje Iruobe, also known as Waje, has elicited mixed reactions from fans after she publicly sought a collaboration with her colleague, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems.

In a tweet late Monday, Waje had wished for a collaboration with Tems, and pleaded to her fans to convey her wishes to the Crazy Tings crooner.

“Imagine @temsbaby and I on track. Please, guys, whisper to her,” Waje had tweeted.

However, her tweet gathered mixed reactions as some knocked her “begging” Tems for a feature despite her being in the industry longer than Tems.

Waje made her debut into the music industry with a feature on P-Square’s “Do Me” in 2007, while Tems came to the limelight in 2019 after her single, “Try Me”.

Reacting to the tweet, @Ayoola50247910 tweeted, ” Waje, you’re the BEST Nigerian Vocalist I know! EVERY NIGERIAN ACT from @wizkidayo, @burnaboy, @davido etc. should be begging you to feature in their songs, but we are in Nigeria WHERE RUBBISH SELLS! Who’s Tems compared to Waje?”

Another tweep, @khanofkhans11_, said, “Waje is asking for a collab from Tems like an up-and-coming artiste. When she could have just reached out to her privately. A whole aunty in the industry. Even Tems will feel embarrassed.”

@Tee_Classiquem1 tweeted, “I don’t see anything wrong if Waje wants a collabo from Tems. The only issue I have with it is her approach. How about a DM or even mail? She is a legend and shouldn’t be moving like an upcoming act. Imagine Davido coming on Twitter to beg Asake or Fireboy for a collabo, it’s weird.”

However, some fans welcomed the idea and even claimed that the duo may already have a collaboration, adding that Waje’s tweet was just a teaser of their collaboration.

@AmandaG82268187 ” It is sure going to be magical. I miss hearing you sing, Waje.”

@uglyyorubadboy “You have put her on the spot on already she can’t say no. It will make sense to see you and Tems on the same track.”

@olisaosega “Waje publicly asking Tems for collaboration isn’t really a big deal. You all need to chill. I won’t be surprised if they are in the studio recording or if it has been recorded already. It’s not really that deep.”
