Tems’ hit song, ‘Higher,’ is sampled in Future’s ‘Wait For You,’ which features Drake. The song would later win a Grammy award for Best Melodic Rap Performance in 2023.

TheTalk.NG reported that the songstress shut down claims that she was pregnant for Future.

In a video online, Tems revealed she had no idea how seriously people took the news until she started getting messages querying her decision to have Future’s baby and death threats.

Tems tags Wizkid and Drake in her pregnancy rumour 

During an appearance on The Breakfast Club podcast, the “Me n U” singer expressed her surprise at rumours claiming that Future had impregnated her

She questioned the reasoning behind the speculation and wondered why people didn’t suspect Wizkid or Drake instead. Tems said:

“The wildest thing I’ve heard about myself is probably the pregnancy, I don’t know where it came from; I have no clue. I was just minding my business being homeless, but it was all so crazy, and I think it’s because of people recognising me.”
